Abstract

This paper examines tourists� motivation, activities and satisfaction while taking part in an ecotour in the Bagalkot district of Karnataka. Therefore, understanding the experience and behaviour of tourists as they undertake different activities is foundational to identifying the impacts occurring at the ecotourism destinations. The results show the tourist experience gained and key attributes they are seeking at the ecotourism destinations. It further presents the importance of these attributes in their experience and the enthusiasm with which first time visitors will try activities offered by the ecotourism destinations. There is a relationship that exists between tourists� motivation, the activities they engage in on an ecotour and their overall level of satisfaction.
