Tourists' movements in space can be seen on inter- and intradestination
levels. Inter-destination movements are strongly connected
to destination choice, which is mostly dependent on overall
supply and demand factors such as income, price level, time
availability, etc., human ‘push’ factors (personal motivations, prior
visits, etc.) and physical ‘pull’ factors (destination geomorphology
and configuration) (Lau & McKercher, 2006). On the other hand,
intra-destination movements are influenced by destination characteristics
(e.g., trip origins and destinations, locations of accommodation
and attractions, transportation accessibility) and tourist
characteristics (e.g., time budget, tourists' motivations and interests,
knowledge and information of destination, emotional
attachment) (Lew & McKercher, 2006).
