This study provides empirical evidence of self-reported impacts of selected electronic and other information
sources on international tourists' destination choices regarding a popular, mature and mainstream summer
holiday location. It is shown that traditional information provisions such as direct word-of-mouth, Web 1.0
sources and own experience are highly resilient and influential when tourists to a well-known destination
area decide where to spend their summer holiday. Moreover, results indicate a complementary nature of
Web 1.0 and Web 2.0. In this context of destination decision-making, utilitarian information values seem
more relevant than socialisation opportunities.
