Motivation, Segmentation, Satisfaction, Loyalty, Cordoba, SpainResumen
This paper presents research that deals with the study of the motivation, satisfaction and loyalty of tourists visiting the city of Cordoba, Spain, a World Heritage Site. For this, the results of a study carried out on tourists during their stay in the city are presented. The study identifies two motivational dimensions in connection with the visit: one cultural and the other multi-motivational, which includes a variety of reasons such as gastronomy and pleasure-seeking. Additionally, also analysed in this research is how the motivation for visiting the city leads to tourists having greater satisfaction with their visit and more loyalty to that tourist destination.
