“…On the other hand, research that focused on the Southeast Asian region as destinations tended towards development, particularly in the areas of cultural conservation (Braithwaite & Leiper, 2010;Henderson, 2012Henderson, , 2017, sustainable development (Cernat & Gourdon, 2012;Mura & Sharif, 2015b;Novelli, Klatte & Dolezal, 2017;Ong & Smith, 2014) and economic progress (Henderson, 2015;Lu, Chen & Kuo, 2018;Wu & Wu, 2019). Due to the long-established intra-regional relationships encouraged by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), intra-regional demand also featured prominently within our dataset, largely dominated by examinations of policy and development (Cohen, 2016;Henderson, 2017;Ramos, Untong & Kaosa-ard, 2017).…”

“…This will be measured using destination attractions determinant, auxiliary factors and destination management. The scale items have been adapted from corresponding studies Guo & Cao 2004;Li Yang & Zeng, 2017;Enright & Newton, 2004, 2015Ritchie & Crouch, 2000;Wang, Hsu & Swanson, 2012). Face validity was used to capture the specific domain of interest, thus making the items measurable.…”

The purpose of the study sought to evaluate the influence of determinants of tourism destination competitiveness on customer loyalty. The study evaluated by the fact many tourism destinations competitiveness in Kenya are silent to domestic tourism due to lack of customer loyalty. The specific objective was to evaluate the effects of destination attractiveness, to establish the effect of auxilary factors, to determine the influence of destination management and to establish the moderating role of situational condition in sanctuaries. The study would of significance to the management of tourism destinations. The study adopted Michael porter theory of competitive advantage. The study used descriptive research design. The study used a sample size of 233 respondents from tourist destinations. The target population was 466 respondents from the two sanctuaries. Stratified sampling techniques were used to select 233 respondents from Assistant warden ii, sergeant education warden, customer care officers, supervisors, animal keepers, tour guides, rangers, cage attendants, research scientist, and corporal discipline officers. The tool for data collection was research questionnaire. Validity of research instruments were measured by supervisor’s opinion and relevant research experts. Reliability of research instruments were determined by use of Crobach alpha coefficients. The data collected was analyzed by use of descriptive statistics involving percentage, mean, and standard deviations. The results were presented by use of charts, figures, graphs and tables. The findings from the study were of significance to the management of tourism destinations, policy makers, academicians and researchers who would use relevant knowledge to do further research. The destination management affects attractiveness. Development in the destination should be responsive to visitor needs, Marketing of Tourist attractions should seek to increase resident awareness and reputation of domestic holidays, There’s need to engage domestic tourists through social networks such as you tube, twitter, facebook, whatsapp, etc to ensure efficient communication, Planning and development should focus on the uniqueness of the destination.

“…Processes directly related to tourism and recreation (Shevchenko et al, 2020), including sports, can influence social changes (Ladda, 2014). Welfare growth, as well as positive political changes in the country, increase the demand for tourism services and, consequently, stimulate the tourism industry to develop its competitiveness (Henderson, 2015). One of the leading areas of sustainable business development is nature-based tourism through the use of the natural uniqueness of destinations (Berg et al, 2014), wildlife (Ajagunna et al, 2014), responsible use of natural resources (Trišić, 2020), and other local assets (Yan et al, 2021).…”

In conditions of forced isolation, nature-based tourism meets the needs of safe and comfortable recreation and travel combined with the solution of acute issues of medical treatment and rehabilitation during the pandemic and post-pandemic periods. This study aims to develop a model for decision-making on change management in nature tourism based on the approach of linear economic and mathematical programming. The paper formalized changes in the variability of objective function parameters of the model and the system of its restrictions, following the structure of assets of nature-based tourism, balanced by the sustainability principle. The algorithm for implementing the model includes four stages: collection and processing of relevant data on nature-based tourism; considering changes in the objective function and the system of its limitations; linear programming with variability tests using the simplex method; defining ranges/limits in which decisions are made. The initial data are summarized and averaged based on the primary data analysis on the functioning of sanatoriums and other tourist and recreational facilities in Ukraine. Short-term nature-based tourism is considered, the services of which are classified according to the criterion of the primary purpose of travel: “wow-effect” tourism, sports tourism, health tourism, traditional recreation, and green tourism. The results make it possible to substantiate decisions on changes in recreational land areas and human resources, on the limits of changes in income due to the dynamics of service prices, as well as determine the price range while maintaining income structure and sustainability limits for natural and human assets of nature-based tourism. AcknowledgmentThe paper contains the results of a study conducted under the National Academy of Science of Ukraine’s grant Formation and Use of Natural-Resource Assets of the Recreational and Tourism Sphere (0120U100159) and the Nominal Scholarship of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine for Young Scientists-Doctors of Sciences for 2021 (0121U113482).
