“…The attractiveness of destinations influences the choices of tourists and may be the most decisive factor for visiting or revisiting a destination (Pompurová et al, 2023). Researchers agree that the term tourism attractiveness cannot be defined unequivocally and that each tourist arriving at a given destination may consider its attractiveness differently (Roman and Bury, 2022).…”

“…The first concerns the evaluation of tourist attractiveness based on demand. This approach focuses on consumer psychology (Ariya et al, 2017;Backman and Crompton, 1991;Blazeska et al, 2015;Hu and Ritchie, 1993;Kim and Song, 1998;Mayo and Jarvis, 1981;Nasir et al, 2020;Pompurová et al, 2023;Vengesayi et al, 2009). Destination attractiveness is often measured by tourists' perceptions of the destination's perceived ability to meet their needs (Mohanty et al, 2021).…”

Tourist attractiveness is the ability of a destination to generate towards itself tourist flows. Its evaluation is crucial for the success of tourism development. The objective of this research is to develop a model for evaluating the attractiveness of tourist destinations to assess the attractiveness of the Larbi Ben M'Hidi tourist expansion area in Skikda, Algeria. The applied method uses both a qualitative diagnosis of the destination’s tourist resources and a quantitative visitor questionnaire survey to inventory, consolidate and evaluate the existing attraction portfolio from a supply and demand perspective. The results show that the landscape and climate are the elements of attraction. They identified the factors perceived as most important for the destination, its strengths and the weak indicators on which to act. Differences in evaluation have emerged between demand and supply, which shows that there are differences between the subjective and objective measure of tourist attractiveness. The proposed framework complements the body of theoretical knowledge on assessing the attractiveness of tourist destinations. In addition, by assessing and matching the differences between the reality of a destination and the perception of a visitor, they can help tourist destinations and their managers guide the development of their tourist areas.

“…In other words, this would mean that access to both meatless and meatbased cuisines could be an opportunity for tourism development because it satisfies both groups of consumers. The aforementioned observations are reflected by Pompurov a et al (2023), who also address the issue of food variety and recommend incorporating a vegetarian menu in catering establishments. Moreover, such a spectrum of various food services may contribute to the creation of a destination's multidimensional profile that would increase its competitive advantage and attractiveness as mentioned above (Cracolici and Nijkamp, 2008).…”

PurposeMeat overconsumption by tourists is one of the key issues in the sustainability of tourist destinations. The objective of this paper is to assess the impact that a promotion of meatless gastronomy and its actual increased availability would have on the attractiveness and visitation of a popular European urban destination.Design/methodology/approachThe research uses an innovative foresight approach that combines environmental scanning and scenarios. The authors formulated the scenarios using the Delphi technique and working with 27 scholars whose insights into the topic were enhanced through theses that resulted from the environmental scanning. They provided their insights into how a promotion of meatless gastronomy would affect a destination. Subsequently, the authors synthetized their insights and formulated the scenarios.FindingsBased on two defined scenarios, the authors found that a meatless image represents an opportunity for the future development of an urban European destination. A long-term growth in visitor numbers can be achieved while ensuring environmental, economic and socio-cultural sustainability providing that relevant stakeholders are involved in the promotional activities.Originality/valueManagement of tourists' unsustainable eating habits is currently an unexplored issue. The present research addresses this topic and provides valuable insights that will help to address sustainability issues while making tourism destinations more attractive.

Many studies have developed methods for assessing attractiveness, but the question is which one should be used to evaluate geopark designated areas? Therefore, the aim of this study is to find suitable criteria for assessing the attractiveness of a natural area such as a geopark in order to find the best quantifiable method as a methodological guide to evaluate attractiveness. The principle of the methodology takes into account three facts: the use of available attractiveness methods elaborated over time, the UNESCO Global Geoparks (UGGp) geopark requirements, and a certified geopark (Haţeg UNESCO Global Geopark was chosen as etalon—benchmark), then matching these together. To this end, the following specific objectives have been set: (i) an inventory of factors used to estimate attractiveness; (ii) through analysis, identifying the appropriate evaluation criteria for the field (a set for criteria’s SMART parameter, which can be clearly expressed, quantitatively measurable, and achievable); and (iii) developing a methodological guideline for geopark attractiveness assessment. The methodology is based on an analytical thinking approach, builds on the experience of existing methods, and stands out by the attributes matched to the UGGp’s evaluation criteria using the certified geopark as a benchmark. The result itself presents a method for assessing the attractiveness of geoparks. The outcome offers the attractiveness suitability for new geopark-designated areas as well as for existing geoparks aspiring to UNESCO certification.
