“…Tourism comprises a set of economically important activities in the world to generate businesses that stimulate local economic movement and thereby find benefits that contribute to the place's development and its inhabitants' quality of life (Aliman et al, 2014;Hartwell et al, 2016). However, people involved in tourism and the society must be aware of this responsibility to assure good practices towards the environment and the preservation of the tourist heritage (Buckley, 2018;Hernández et al, 2017;Thapa & Lee, 2017). Several authors consider that although environmental knowledge is one-dimensional, it must be segmented into two constructs based on the amount of objective (real) and subjective (perceived) knowledge concerning the environmental conditions of protected areas (Bamberg & Möser, 2007).…”

Ecotourism allows activities in contact with nature in protected natural areas to contribute to environmental care. This study seeks to establish the dimensions of perceived value in ecotourism and analyze its relationship with satisfaction and loyalty. It was an in situ research carried out in two protected areas of Costa Rica: Arenal National Park and Caño Negro National Wildlife Refuge. The sample consisted of 310 surveys for domestic and foreign tourists. The data were interpreted through a factorial analysis to identify the dimensions that make up the perceived value. Also, Spearman's correlation technique and the stepwise multiple regression method were used to find the relationships among the variables. The findings show that there are three dimensions of perceived value: economic-functional, emotional, and social. Overall satisfaction and loyalty had a high average score, and the dimensions found are significantly and positively related to overall satisfaction. The "economic-functional value" dimension has a greater influence on overall satisfaction, and the "emotional value" dimension is the most significant predictor of the intentions to return, recommend, and say positive things about the ecotourism destination.

“…They are offered under regulations that restriction their operation and have multiple levels of development, with the aim of preserving the environment and the ecosystems including damage and pollution to vegetation, water, wildlife, and air quality (Cheng & Wu, 2015). This responsibility must be assumed by all those involved in tourism and society in general, contribut-ing to good practices aimed at caring for the environment with the sole purpose of preserving the tourist heritage (Buckley, 2018;Hernández et al, 2017;Thapa & Lee, 2017). For D'Souza et al (2006), the environmental knowledge of nature-oriented tourism can be conceived from two orientations: the first has to do with the knowledge acquired from the influence of the individual's experience with nature.…”

“…For D'Souza et al (2006), the environmental knowledge of nature-oriented tourism can be conceived from two orientations: the first has to do with the knowledge acquired from the influence of the individual's experience with nature. The second, the wisdom applied by individuals to contribute to reducing the negative impact on nature, that is, it can happen that even when individuals have a high level of environmental knowledge they assume negative behaviours towards nature, or conversely generate a high level of consciousness that leads them to assume a behaviour in favour of environmental care, in addition to promoting favourable attitudes toward nature (Bamberg & Möser, 2007;Hernández et al, 2017). Other scholars consider environmental knowledge as one-dimensional, but that it must be segmented into two constructs based on the amount of objective (real) and subjective (perceived) knowledge, with respect to the environmental conditions of protected areas (Bamberg & Möser, 2007).…”

In the literature on tourism and travel, there is a large number of studies on the perceived value, however, natural protected areas and its relationship with the profile of the tourist has been little investigated. Hence, the importance of posing the main objective, to evaluate the relationship between the perceived value with the satisfaction and loyalty of the visitors of Morro Mangroves Wildlife Refuge, Santay Island National Recreation Area and Samanes National Recreation Area, three vulnerable protected areas located in the province of Guayas in Ecuador. The study was conducted in situ with 382 surveys, finding that the perceived values that are related to satisfaction and loyalty were functional value and emotional value.

“…El modelo turístico de la isla, si bien bascula sobre el tradicional binomio de «sol y playa», difiere en algunos aspectos al implantado en las llamadas «islas turísticas» de Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura y Lanzarote (Hernández Luis, et al 2017;Marrero y Santana, 2008). Éstas se caracterizan por su masificación, mientras que La Gomera, al igual que La Palma y El Hierro, soporta una presión turística mucho menor.…”

La Gomera es una de las ocho Islas Canarias, un archipiélago considerado como uno de los destinos turísticos más importantes de Europa y del mundo. Su economía se desenvolvió históricamente a través de las actividades agrarias, pero a partir de los años ochenta del pasado siglo pasó a depender del sector terciario, siendo el turismo una base económica fundamental. El modelo turístico de La Gomera ha girado en torno al tradicional binomio de «sol y playa», favoreciendo su concentración en unos pocos espacios costeros del sur, lo que ha provocado una profunda polarización territorial -desde el punto de vista económico y demográfico- entre estas localidades y el resto de entidades de la isla. La consecuencia de ello ha sido el abandono casi total del territorio insular, el cual ahora se instrumentaliza como producto de promoción turística, apoyado en la idealización del paisaje como patrimonio natural y cultural, en la presentación del mismo como un espacio bucólico que seduzca y cautive a los visitantes alojados en la costa, principales consumidores de estos espacios del interior y norte insular, pero que poco aporta a la pobre economía de los habitantes que ellos residen. La Gomera is one of the eight Canary Islands, an archipelago considered one of the most important tourist destinations in Europe and the world. Its economy was historically developed through farming activities, but from the eighties decade of the past century, it became dependent on the service sector, with tourism being a fundamental economic basis. La Gomera´s tourism model has revolved around the classic "sun and beach" combination, favoring its concentration in a few coastal areas in the south, which has led to a profound territorial polarization -from an economic and demographic point of view- between these places and the rest of the island. As a consequence, there has been an almost total abandonment of the island territory, which is now instrumentalized as a tourism promotion product, supported by the idealization of the landscape as a natural and cultural heritage, being presented as a bucolic space that seduces and captivates visitors staying on the coast, who are the main consumers of these interior and northern areas of the island, but which contributes little to the poor economy of the inhabitants residing in these areas.
