The purpose of the article is to study the features of the development of the regions of Ukraine, the formation of a model of sustainable development of ecotourism. The bibliographic method made it possible to study the basic concepts,controversial and problematic issues, as well as the experience of solving them, proposed by scientists from different countries in this area of research. The analysis of efficiency has revealed the most competitive regions of Ukraine for conducting an environmentally oriented tourism business. The correlation and regression analysis results showed that the coefficient of determination R-square indicates a 94% correlation between the studied indicators. The growing dynamics of the number of subjects of tourist activity in Ukraine is noted. The primary data for cluster analysis were preliminarily formed, the presence of advantages and risks (anthropogenic effects) in 24 regions was determined, and promising directions for the development of ecotourism were identified. Cluster analysis, carried out using IBM SPSS software, determined the Euclidean distance and grouped the analyzed regions of Ukraine into clusters with the most similar characteristics. As a result of the study, the author’s vision of the essence of ecotourism, the logic of applying the methodology of cluster analysis was substantiated. The hypothesis about the influence of cultural heritage sites on the number of tourists was refuted. Some recommendations are given for further improvement of the quality of ecotourism development as a priority direction in the formation of sustainable development. The study’s practical significance lies in the fact that the results of the work carried out can be used as reference material for those studying the topic.

The growth of tourism depends on the extent to which tourist appreciate offered hospitality by the host country. More generally, it is accepted that tourists are more willing to spend their moments in regions with good hospitality. This paper investigated the relevance of this hypothetical intuition using the case of Bangladesh. This is the fundamental logic behind undertaking this investigation. The hospitality industry is a noteworthy service industry in the world economy; it incorporates services like food service, hotels and tourism. We proposed that, among individuals, the willingness to consider tourism is constrained by positive changes in hospitality. Firstly, this paper probed the association between emotions regarding hospitality among tourists and tourism in Bangladesh. Secondly, it investigated the extent to which changes in hospitality impact the willingness of considering tourism in Bangladesh. Thirdly, this paper examined the extent to which tourists in Bangladesh are responsive to external and internal factors of tourism and hospitality. A survey was organized to collect data on target tourists visiting the tourist's places such as hill tracts, sea beaches/islands, and residing three/five star hotels in Bangladesh. We measured some qualitative factors of emotions regrinding hospitality and willingness to consider tourism. We determined the internal factors and focus on "PESTEL Theory of Marketing" to analyse and monitored the macroenvironmental (external marketing environment) factors that have an impact on tourism. Finally, we proposed a tourism and hospitality model based on our outcome. Our findings identified the current conditions and perceptions regarding tourism and hospitality in Bangladesh. The tourism industry is completely dependent on the hospitality industry. Visitors coming to visit Bangladesh wish to have peace,
