The purpose of this research is to analyze the structural relationship between camping tourists’ motivation, experience, and satisfaction. The survey was conducted in a convenient sampling method, and a total of 464 valid questionnaires were collected. After descriptive statistics and partial least squares (PLS) statistics analysis, the results show that the higher the motivation of camping tourists, the more positive their experience and the higher their satisfaction. In addition, this research also confirms that experience has a mediating effect on motivation and satisfaction in terms of academic theory.展开更多

Our teacher taught us how to make a fire. I forgot to take my lunch box, but my classmates were happy to share their food with me. We enjoyed a lot of nice food and drinks together under the tree. This camping really brought us a lot of fun and we learned to help each other when having problems. I’m looking forward to another fun day.展开更多
