Underpinned by Personal Construct Theory as well as Uses and Gratifications Theory, an exploratory approach was used. The findings from a content analysis of published studies (N = 101) and from personal interviews with consumers in Australia (N = 20) using the Repertory Test technique, were triangulated to identify 19 salient attributes of social media in the context of international travel planning. Since user-generated content on social media is an influential organic image formation agent, and is now more volumous than the marketing communications of the travel industry, an important current issue is thinking about how destination marketing organisations can better take advantage of this medium. This study provides new insights into the range of salient travel planning attributes of social media. It is suggested that these findings could be used by destination marketing organisations (DMO) to assist stakeholders with social media promotions.","PeriodicalId":41634,"journal":{"name":"Acta Turistica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.22598/AT/2019.31.2.153","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45779394","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}

Regarding trends in different rural areas in other countries, issues have been raised concerning the degree to which cyclists adopt ‘serious leisure’ patterns, and the degree to which the sport, which is usually identifi ed with leisure activity, is developing as cycling tourism or cycling holidays. This study was based on two cycling surveys with a time gap of eight years, so that it enabled analysis of the cyclists’ characteristics, perceptions, and needs, as well as comparison of changes in these aspects over time. The results indicate that although many characteristics found are similar to trends in other countries, there are some which are specifi c to a small country and to its social structure.","PeriodicalId":41634,"journal":{"name":"Acta Turistica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.22598/at/2019.31.2.179","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46289591","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}

These countries cannot compete with large and world-known wine regions (Rioja, Bordeaux etc.) in terms of production volume. However, grapes have been grown on the teritory of the present-day Croatia for several thousand years and pronouced traditional heritage resulting from economic underdevelopment still characterizes Croatian wine regions. Therefore Croatian winemakers, being restricted to making only small quantities of wine, cannot compete against large, well-known producers, but they can still compete from a tourism perspective. This paper aims at conceptualizing a model of wine region revival based on characteristics of traditional heritage. The conclusion is reached by: determining the characteristics of traditional heritage in the three most important sectors (agriculture, culture and tourism) related to wine production and sales, identifying the use of traditional heritage characteristics in sectoral development plans and analysing the results of a survey conducted by destination management organizations of rural municipalities on perceptions of traditional heritage in wine tourism development.","PeriodicalId":41634,"journal":{"name":"Acta Turistica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2019-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.22598/AT/2019.31.1.7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44179866","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}

Vecina gradova i naselja istovremeno su turisticke destinacije koje trebaju organizacijom i upravljanjem prometom omoguciti kvalitetu kretanja lokalnog stanovnistva te posjetitelja. Primarni cilj ovog istraživanja je identificirati elemente mobilnosti i prometna rjesenja sposobna rezultirati smanjenjem koristenja automobila u destinacijama, a koja su u nekim europskim gradovima verificirana i prihvacena od strane korisnika. U nastojanju utvrđivanja mogucih pravaca djelovanja koji bi uz najmanje ulaganja i u najkracem roku povecali mobilnost u gradovima i naseljima u Republici Hrvatskoj, pri istraživanju stavova i ponasanja sudionika u prometu u Republici Hrvatskoj koristena je metodologija Europske Komisije (TNS Opinion & Social, 2014). The cities of Europe are characterised by a concentration of traffic demand, resulting in road congestion, low safety levels, environmental pollution and devastation, and high costs that afflict all traffic participants. The satisfaction of traffic participants is proportional to the duration and cost of travel. As most cities and towns are also tourism destinations, they need to organise and manage traffic to ensure good mobility for residents and visitors alike. The primary objective of this study is to identify the elements of mobility and to single out traffic solutions that are capable of bringing about the reduced use of automobiles in destinations and have been verified and accepted by consumers in some European cities. The methodology of the European Commission (TNS Opinion & Social, 2014) was applied in studying the opinions and behaviour of traffic participants in the Republic of Croatia to determine what action is needed to increase mobility in Croatia’s cities with the least investment cost and in the shortest time possible.","PeriodicalId":41634,"journal":{"name":"Acta Turistica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.22598/AT/2018.30.2.129","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48449760","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}
