Abstract:

This paper presents the results of a study that used direct observation methodology to recognize tourists’ behaviour in the monumental city of Girona (Spain). The tourists were tracked from a prudent distance and all information relating to their visit was gathered. The results of applying this methodology can be used to define the effective behaviour of tourists in a heritage city and also shape itineraries around the city |
