Research Abstract	Recently, number of developing countries, which aim at economical growth by attracting international tourism, are increasing. As some problems of global environment preservation now draw attention, development of international tourist travel may be better than that of industrialization. In this paper, we study on development of international travel and economical effect in developing countries. At first, we analysed the international travel demand from Japan to developing countries and made the prediction model of the travel demand. Next, we formulated the excursion behavior of tourists as the aggregated Nested Logit model. Finally, we considered the economical effect of their developments by Input-Output analysis.
