To achieve the following target the author turned to general scientific methods: analysis, synthesis, abstraction, generalization, analogy, observation, description and so forth. Results. As a result of the research work the influence of the social-philosophical aspects in the development of tourism in Ukraine was revealed and analyzed, the interrela-tion with other spheres of activity and the influence on further development of the society is highlighted; the value of tourism in forming personality is found out; the primary directions of development in the tourist sector in Ukraine at present stage and the role in evolution of the society are allocated. The following conclusion is made: during the history a man gradually turned from the free traveler into the habitual consumer of the offered services. This led not only to the substitution of an essence and value of travel, but also to the penetration of the so-called «mass culture» – its principles of existence and functioning into the tourism sector. The following situation became possible due to the state legal and program mistakes, relying on the bases of the pragmatic activities in the tourism sphere.
