Abstract: Dark tourism, in its original form, includes concentration camps, dungeons cemeteries, disaster zones, spooky castles, horror movie locations and war zones, etc.
Includes site visits. Today, however, such travels have become popular with museums, panoramic museums, battlefields, tombs, palaces, etc. This travel experience, which has attracted a lot of attention especially by young people in recent years, draws attention in many countries and cities, rural areas. This type of tourism, which can be combined with spirituality in the depths of the human spirit, provides social and economic contributions to the visited region. In this research, it is aimed to investigate guest experiences in the context of dark tourism and these experiences in the context of tourism entrepreneurship by making use of the CANVAS model.
