Abstract
Objectives such as generating ideas about the tourism future of destinations, getting maximum benefit, minimizing negative effects, shaping physical development are possible by revealing tourism resources, potentials and obstacles. Otherwise, it may not be possible to talk about the sustainability of destinations. Considered as one of the most important countries in the world in terms of its tourism potentials, Sudan has many opportunities like geographical location, climate, natural structure and touristic potentials. Unfortunately, due to some challenges, it cannot get the share it deserves from tourism. In this study, it is aimed to reveal the tourism potentials of Sudan, to evaluate the current situation, to identify the obstacles in front of tourism development and to offer solutions to these obstacles. Semi-structured interview technique as a research method was preferred. At the end of the study it was concluded that an effective tourism planning infrastructure supporting tourism development in Sudan hasn't been established. As a result of the findings, suggestions were made for the planning of the sustainable tourism development in Sudan. Key words: Tourism development and planning
