The graph below shows the percentages of tourists who used different types of transport to travel within a particular nation between 1989 and 2009. Each tourist may have used more than one type of transport.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
The line graph delineates the percentage of tourists who travelled by five different means of transportation, including car, rail, air, coach and ferry, between 1989 and 2009. While the choice of commute shifted during the period of two decades, the car was still one of the most favourable options for transportation.
In terms of the upward trend, only the two figures for coach and rail rocketed. From under 10% and 35% in 1989, the proportion of tourists who utilized coach and rail tripled to 27% and 59% in 2009, which marked the two figures at the first and the third place, respectively.
In contrast, there was a downward trend in the selection of car, air and ferry. In 1989, the figure of car and air stood at first and the second place with 49% and 39% respectively. While the percentage of travellers who commuted by car reached a peak in 1999 with 61%, that of car witnessed a dramatic drop of 10%. In the next decade, the two figures continued to decline by around 10% each. Quite similar to the pattern of the figure of car, that of ferry was the lowest number in the five figures, with only 1% in 1989, then rose quickly to 11% in the following 16 years before decreasing 1% in 2009.
In general, the selection of commute differs throughout 20 years. However, the car still took the lead most of the time, whereas the ferry was the least favourable option for travelling.
