The research tools are two questionnaires. The first questionnaire is the for the finalization of the method and content validity index and the second questionnaire to the leveling of the indexes, and is using interpretive structural modeling Discussion and Results To extract the indicators of the development of travel and tourism experts in the field of travel and tourism in the province were used. For this purpose, 10 of these experts have expressed willingness to cooperate in this research. The experts, including faculty members and experts in the had field of tourism and high experience in various fields. The opinions of the experts in carrying out and content validity of the questionnaire was used to the structural interpretation modeling. After extraction, according to the 2015 Index of the World Economic Forum and Validity of the 17 key indicators that the CVR was greater than 0.75 Table 2 were obtained. After determining the final travel and tourism, using interpretive structural modeling, structural matrix of variables extracted relations. It is necessary to prepare a matrix to identify dependencies between all the elements to be considered in pair. After these two ideas from experts matrix of relationships of variables in Table 3 were extracted. The study results show that the tourism industry priority for the government is the key indicator for increase the competitiveness of tourism industry in the Fars province and Iran's weak position in the latest rankings from the perspective of the world Economic Forum indicates that there is a need for government attention to the development of the tourism industry.

The results show that both the province and the entire country are not suitable as independent variables in the field of travel and tourism. And somehow this analysis can be found in other provinces. It is necessary to state the tourism industry, cost management and training in this industry is the most important strategies and measures they must be at the micro level and the macro level in the country and the provinces must be done.
