Being a significant strategical tool, clustering activities have increasingly been prominent in terms of tourism development. This study aims to explain what a tourism cluster is; how it is processed, how its network system is and how tourism clusters are classified. A view about classification of clusters according to their success and labelling criteria are presented. There is also information about certain tourism regions in cluster maps. This study seeks to reveal characteristics of tourism clusters analyzing certain tourism cluster examples. The study furtherly aims to form a general framework related to tourism clusters with help of significant tourism clusters
