This paper brings together ‘triple T’ of tourism, transmodernity and transformative learning by exposing critical questions of (tourism) futures and the sense of direction where are we going as a single humanity. In the current context of overwhelming crisis at all levels – environmentally, socially, economically, politically and culturally, there is an increasing evidence that we cannot continue with ‘business as usual’. Hence, natural and social science, economists, political activists, writers, spiritual leaders and successful social entrepreneurs argue that humanity needs (and is actually going through) a major global mind change and a paradigm shift in the 21st century which is often described as the shift towards transmodernity. In exposing so, the paper then connects tourism and transformative learning asa potential catalyst to change the world for the better.
