The social analysis on the religious routes and destinations is relatively poor and it evolved mainly with the form of parallel approaches of the “religious”, the “cultural”, and the “economic” perspectives of the touristic phenomena associated with the socalled religious factor. The current article presents an integrative social approach focusing on the interconnectedness dynamic of all factors involved in religious tourism in order not only to explain better the current developments in the field, but also to introduce a polymorphic theory on the touristic strategy and plan of action. The Greek religious routes, monuments and destinations are an example of the coexistence of the Greek Orthodox religious destinations with ancient cultural monuments and natural sight scenes. Such an example may function as a “polymorphic touristic continuum” that deserves the attention of the social analysis.Religious tourism, polymorphic strategic plan, social perspective
