摘要：The importance of outbound market to a destination country has drawn scholars’ interests in understanding tourists’ motivation to travel overseas. The success of marketing destinations should be guided by a thorough analysis of tourist motivation, and for this reason, this study adopts a model based on push and pull factors as the conceptual framework. As little information has been documented about travel motivations to Jordan, this study attempts to identify motivation factors of foreign tourists to the country as different tourist markets demonstrate different domains of behavior. This may have important marketing implications to the country especially in terms of examination of motives in segmenting markets, designing promotional programs and decision making about destination development.
