Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has radically cut into tourism behaviors and virtually disabled any form of tourism. This chapter deals with the problem of how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the changes of tourist behavior and how these changes are reflected in the wellbeing of potential tourists. The purpose of this chapter is to find out what are the psychological characteristics that will help to return to tourist behavior after the pandemic subsides. Next, the chapter will pay attention to the relationship between the gradual return to tourist activities and safe, but at the same time relaxed tourist behavior. The author performed a method of systematic review, which performed a systematic analysis of the most relevant target literature since the COVID-19 pandemic has existed. Based on the obtained results, the author designed a model of the psychological characteristics of safe tourist behavior at the transition to the post-COVID-19 period.
