“…Female respondents, based on the previous statement (see SEF3 in Table 4), had worse experiences than males who were less likely to share their experiences. TD needs to have information centers so they can provide clear information and improve visitor knowledge (Shavanddasht et al, 2017;Ginting et al, 2021).…”

Self-efficacy in tourist destination can influence the tourists’ level of satisfaction which may depend on how much the destination has fulfilled their needs. This research aims at investigating the relationship between gender preference and self-efficacy in tourist destination in Karo regency. Female tourists are usually significantly different, in which male’s self-efficacy tend to be higher than female’s. This research used a qualitative and quantitative method to obtain the varieties of perception, such as accessibility, comfort, confidence, and safety. The result reveals self-efficacy isindeed different for local male and female visitors; however, the male and female tourists from abroad do not indicate significant difference. The level of self-efficacy (LSE) for females is not always lower than males and, even, the activities cannot limit the LSE for males and females. The tourists’ activities in the masculine category proved that the females’ SE is higher than males. However, the males’ SE proved to be higher than females are only found among local people; however, the tourists’s SE between males and females look the same. In the development of tourism which is based on the tourists’ SE, preference of gender does not need to be considered; however, if it is done on the basis locals’ SE, then the preference of gender is really needed.

Karst of Batumilmil comprises many unique geomorphological features such as caves, rivers, and mountainous ranges. Situated at the outskirt of the Biosphere Reserves of Leuser National Park, this area is wide open for geotourism development. This paper aims to study the potencies from Karst of Batumilmil to be developed into geotourism. Using data obtained from field surveys and visualized by Geographic Information System, we can find and design the recreational resources and formulate the development strategies toward them. Our study finds six caves as the main geotourism sites for activities like cave exploration and combined with the jungle tracking and river tubing as the secondary or supporting tourism attraction. Each cave has its characteristics that determine the geotourism activities and the carrying capacity. We also discover that each cave provides high scientific values, showing how the geological process of uplifting to form three cave levels. We conclude that Karst of Batumilmil has huge potential to be developed as geotourism destination with the strategy for this development consists of satisfying sustainability, serving educational purposes, and also balancing environmental, physical, and mental health.

The COVID-19 pandemic is causing significant global changes, and one of the most affected sectors is the tourism industry. Therefore, this study aimed at determining the impacts of the pandemic on tourism by comparing the spatial economic classification before and during the pandemic using four analyses, namely the regional Klassen Typology, sector approach, the Location Quotient (LQ), and Shift-Share Analysis. The processed information is secondary data from the Central Statistical Agency of Karo Regency and North Sumatra Province, Indonesia. This area is one of the mainstay areas of the national economy and part of the Lake Toba Super Priority Destination. The obtained results showed that the tourism sector was classified among the fast-growing and uncompetitive sectors before the pandemic. However, during the crisis, it became a slow-growing and competitive sector.
