“…Travel costs have received considerable attention from most researchers (Masiero, Qiu, 2018) as it plays a vital role in a decision to attend MICE events (Kim, Kim, Oh, 2020). Ortaleza and Mangali (2021) pointed out that travel costs are considered one of the factors that influence tourists' decisions. Related studies declared travel costs as a key driver of MICE attendance (Elston, Draper, 2012;Kim, Kim, Oh, 2020;Veloutsou, Chreppas, 2015;Yoo, Zhao, 2010).…”

“…Anas et al (2020) asserted that accessibility is an essential factor in tourism and is associated with tourists and destinations. Furthermore, Hansson et al (2019) clarified that accessibility which includes travel time, comfort, and trip length is also vital in determining customer satisfaction (Ortaleza, Mangali, 2021). Accessibility and infrastructure have great influence on travel because a modernized road network leads to an increase in the number of tourists to a destination as well as encouraging re-visitations (Ortaleza, Mangali, 2021).…”

Accessibility influences tourists because road quality and infrastructure including the means of transporting tourists from one place to another affect tourists' experience and overall quality of stay (Ortaleza, Mangali, 2021).

“…Ponadto Hansson i in. ( 2019) wyjaśnili, iż dostępność, która obejmuje czas podróży, komfort i długość wyjazdu, ma również kluczowe znaczenie dla oceny satysfakcji klienta (Ortaleza, Mangali, 2021). Dostępność i infrastruktura mają ogromny wpływ na podróżowanie, bowiem zmodernizowana sieć dróg prowadzi do wzrostu liczby turystów podróżujących do destynacji, a także zachęca do ponownych odwiedzin (Ortaleza, Mangali, 2021).…”

The relationship between push and pull factors with the intention to revisit a destination has often been investigated in the context of general tourism. Not much is known on the factors influencing MICE destination revisit intentions, despite the numerous socioeconomic benefits that many countries have received from the MICE tourism business. This article attempts to fill the gap of knowledge by critically reviewing the literature using the integrative review approach. By reviewing, critiquing and synthesizing major literature on the issue, two push factors i.e. networking and educational opportunities and four pull factors i.e. destination image, travel costs, attraction and accessibility are established as influencing revisit intentions to MICE destination. Then a theoretical model of relationship between those factors and MICE destination revisit intentions is proposed.

This study was conducted to determine the influence of the ecotourism attributes of Osun Osogbo sacred grove on tourist motivation for visiting. Data were collected through direct observation and administration of structured questionnaire. The sample size was 250 tourists to the site. Data were analyzed and presented using descriptive statistics. According to the results of the findings, the sites historical background (43.1%), easy accessibility (37.3%), good value for cost (44.6%), famous of the site (65.5%), ability to visit a sacred place (52.2%), perfect weather (45.0%), walk around in nature (46.3%), past experiences (42.8%), ability to see the landscape (52.40%), cultural sites (41.8%), bird watching (38.6%), monkeys (41.4%) and water body (40.2%) were seen to be influencing tourists to visit the site. The results also indicate that the main push factors that were seen as motivating tourists were the need to take a break from normal daily activities (61.9%), learn about the environment (43.2%), meet new people with similar interests (37.2%), experience the atmosphere (49.00%), escape from psychological stress (44.0%), see a place with lots of attractions (52.2%), and visit a place I haven't been before (48.8%). to experience a different lifestyle (44.3%), to have fun and be entertained (44.6%), to get away from everyday responsibilities (37.3%), to strengthen relationships with family and friends (40.7%), and to get a better appreciation for nature (53.3%). Management should therefore pay attention to the improvement of these features so as to improve the destination’s competitiveness in the tourism market.

This study aimed at identifying the factors influencing tourists’ decisions in choosing their vacation destinations as well as factors influencing their behavior. An online survey was applied to 861 Romanian tourists. The principal component analysis was run to reduce the dimensionality of the 23 items and used to determine the factors that influence tourists’ decision in choosing their destination, leading to a four-component solution. The results indicated that aspects related to destination image, destination unique characteristics and the accommodation facilities are more important for women than for the men. Regarding the travel organization factor, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups. Families and older tourists with high incomes are positively linked to the length of stay. These insights on the factors influencing tourists’ decision-making process are of the utmost importance for managers and overall tourism service providers in the design of marketing and management strategies in accordance to tourists’ expectations and needs.
