The conceptual model is empirically tested through a survey using 378 samples using Exploratory Factor Analysis followed by Structural Equation Modelling. Our research found that motives, namely learning local culture, seeking spiritual experiences, experiencing novelty, engaging in social consumption, and experiencing relaxation, are the five principal drivers determining cultural tourist destination selection. This study identifies that tourism motives influence destination satisfaction and positively contribute to WOM intentions. Our research suggests that administrators must create thematic recreation/entertainment options that underscore the local flavour to improve destination satisfaction amongst foreign cultural tourists.","PeriodicalId":46641,"journal":{"name":"Tourism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140985769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Status of Coopetition in Wine Tourism Research","authors":"Kettrin Farias Bem Maracajá, A. F.

Our research aims to structure the knowledge status on wine tourism coopetition from the core research dimensions and the future trends indicated by the researchers. We answered four questions: What is the current coopetition research in wine tourism? Who are the prominent scholars? How are themes and authors correlated? What are the motivations and trends of the wine tourism coopetition? We conducted a bibliometric study using multiple techniques: Historiography, Correspondence Analysis, Thematic Relevance, and Development Matrix. Additionally, we performed a Content analysis to identify the motivations for Coopetition. Key results showed four cluster themes on this topic: Wine segmentation studies, Tourism experience studies, Studies of sustainability of wine tourism, and new theories to study wine tourism. We synthesized the dimensions and motivations of Coopetition as context, process, and results. Theoretical and practical implications showed Coopetition as a mostly unintentional process in the wine industry related to territorial synergy, interdependence, complementarity, and strategic fit. It is a broad intersectoral interplay that covers many industries. However, wine tourism coopetition should become a planned strategy to improve outcomes.","PeriodicalId":46641,"journal":{"name":"Tourism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140985681","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research instrument, consisting of 31 items and six variables, was developed using a literature review of prior research studies. A mixed-methods survey approach was used to elicit residents’ sentiments towards tourism development in Kashmir Valley. Using SPSS, reliability analysis and exploratory factor analysis were performed on 520 helpful responses. The research findings reveal that the residents are well-versed in the tourism development process. Considering the economic, social, and cultural developments of tourism, findings further indicate that residents of Kashmir Valley have a strong sense of community, and interactions with tourists are seen as crucial to the growth and promotion of the Valley's tourist hotspots. The research study also considers the necessity of involving residents in developing the tourism industry so that they might benefit from the industry. The social implications of this research study are crucial for the growth of tourism. It is recommended that a community-based approach to tourism be used and that residents’ attitudes be considered when developing and promoting tourism.","PeriodicalId":46641,"journal":{"name":"Tourism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140986046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"An Exploratory Study About Child-Friendly Trips","authors":"Sonay Kaygalak Çelebi","doi":"10.37741/t.72.3.14","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.37741/t.72.3.14","url":null,"abstract":"The main idea of child-friendly tourism is to consider children's physical and psychological health in all kinds of travel and holiday experiences. Also, it aims to arrange activities in line with children's development skills. Child-friendly trips are an essential part of these skills, as they support personal, sociocultural, and physical contexts for children. Tour guides are one of the most critical companions that support these contexts. This paper tries to uncover how child-friendly trips are done from the perspective of tour guides. It aims to reveal child-friendly trip interpretation, child-friendly tour guides' features, and difficulties. A qualitative research method was used, and tour guides who made domestic and daily child-friendly trips in TURKEY attended the study. Twenty-two semi-structured interviews based on content analysis were examined. The findings revealed that although child-friendly trips have the same characteristics as other group tours, they have different interpretation styles. Tour guides should have specific attributions to successfully affect the children and slog on the trip. Child-friendly tourism literature is a developing field of study with some theoretical gaps. This study contributes to the literature by offering a broader perspective of child-friendly trip context regarding tourist guides.","PeriodicalId":46641,"journal":{"name":"Tourism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140982988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on a cross-sectional analysis using a self-administered questionnaire, the study investigates the influence of taste and quality value, health value, price value, emotional value, and prestige value on the food destination image. The sample consists of 181 tourists who visited Sarawak, providing insights into visitors' diverse perspectives and preferences. The data was further analysed using SPSS 28.0 and WarpPLS 8.0. The findings reveal that taste, quality, health, emotional, and prestige value significantly affect the food destination image. However, the study has shown that price value has no significant impact. Surprisingly, food satisfaction does not moderate the relationship between local food consumption value and food destination image. Theoretical implications highlight the need for a more comprehensive understanding of the factors shaping consumers' perceptions. In contrast, practical implications suggest strategic considerations for culinary destinations in marketing campaigns and pricing strategies. Overall, this study contributes valuable insights for destination marketers aiming to attract tourists interested in unique culinary experiences and enhance their overall perception of the destination.","PeriodicalId":46641,"journal":{"name":"Tourism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140984033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The extant research on this topic covers the impact of the pandemic and resilience strategies. Still, it leaves a gap in the discussion relating to the service providers' experience in the context of domestic tourism. The present study stems from the absence of empirical research on the trends associated with domestic tourism growth in India post-COVID. It examines the trends in domestic tourist behaviour from the tour operators’ perspective. It employs a qualitative research design to explore the experiences of tour operators in India. Phone interviews were conducted with 26 tour operators to collect data. A thematic-content analysis is performed to generate themes with the help of Atlas ti software.

This study focuses on the interpretation of sustainability among accommodation providers and the practices they implement regarding sustainability. in-depth interviews with the managers of hotels and guesthouses are used as the qualitative method to obtain necessary data. The critical selection criterion was the appearance of sustainability in management, especially in communication. The findings show that accommodation providers associate sustainability primarily with environmental aspects, several interviewees describe themselves as “unusual”, and only a few respondents reported that they share their experiences with other service providers. An important implication of the study is that greater emphasis should be put on education and cooperation among service providers.","PeriodicalId":46641,"journal":{"name":"Tourism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140985732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
