Emphatic service provider, consum-
er’s involvement and satisfaction rep-
resent three key factors determining
real loyalty in tourist services.

Loyalty depends on satisfaction and
satisfaction with a customer’s per-
ceived service value. Internal varia-
bles have limited influence on con-
sumer satisfaction, perceived value,
loyalty, and consumer repurchase dec-
larations. Satisfaction, perceived val-
ue, and loyalty jointly explain particu-
lar behaviors related to repurchases of
recreational services.

Satisfaction, perceived value of an of-
fer, and loyalty jointly influence con-
sumer declarations regarding an offer
repurchase. Among the analyzed fac-
tors, satisfaction constitutes the best
repurchase prediction. Loyalty de-
pends on satisfaction and the consum-
er’s perception of the value of an offer.

Motivation
Satisfaction
Loyalty
Destination
Destination loyalty is correlated with
tourists’ satisfaction as a result of
their experiences. Satisfaction repre-
sents the factor negatively correlated
with a “pull” type motivation (refer-
ring to destination choice). However,
it does not depend on a “push” type
motivation (referring to tourist activ-
ity), which, in turn, is positively cor-
related with loyalty to a given desti-
nation.

The paper analyzes the causal rela-
tionships among three key variables
in tourism marketing: image, satisfac-
tion, and loyalty. Destination images
influence tourist loyalty and behavio-

This study examines the relationships
among perceived quality, perceived
value, relationship quality (customer
satisfaction and trust), and loyalty
intentions in the full‐service restau-
rant industry. The results support
the hypothesized relationships among
the study’s constructs. In addition,
relationship quality was found to be
a partial mediator in the relationship
between perceived value and loyalty
intentions.

Destination
Multiple regression analysis indicat-
ed that attitudinal loyalty is mainly
driven by attachment, familiarity, and
perceived value, whereas behavioral
loyalty is driven by familiarity. Only
one dimension of a pull motivation
(history, heritage, and knowledge)
influenced attitudinal loyalty, where-
as a pull motivation had no effect on
behavioral loyalty. Regarding push
motivation, tourists’ desire for nov-
elty negatively influenced behavioral
loyalty. Finally, male tourists tended
to be more attitudinally and behav-
iorally loyal, while tourists who had
children living with them showed less
attitudinal loyalty.

Tourists’ expectations have a nega-
tive impact on their perceptions of the
quality of an offer, whereas consumers’
motivations have a positive influence
on them. However, the perceived qual-
ity of an offer has a positive impact on
consumer satisfaction. An inverse re-
lationship occurs between satisfaction
and tourists’ complaints as well as the
direct relation between customer sat-
isfaction and loyalty (the more com-
plaints, the lower the loyalty level).
