description | In order to influence the decision making process in tourism, and to keep
account with the “tough” competition environment in the current economy,
destinations find themselves “fighting” more and more for the attainment of an
image as favourable as possible in the mind of the tourist. It is for this reason that
the marketer projects the image identity and develops contact points, so that,
through the application of suitable stimuli, the tourist will have a memorable
sensory experience through the stages of pre-consumption, actual consumption and
post-consumption of the travel product. The purpose of the present article is to
evaluate the sensory experience of the tourist – a possible instrument for reducing
the gap between projection and perception, as well as for imagining the travel
product. |
