本文调查了社会人口结构和旅行相关变量是否以及在多大程度上决定了在葡萄牙北部农村地区逗留的游客的个人日常和个人总支出水平。这一分析可能有助于加深对特定旅游群体和旅行环境在促进这些地区的经济发展方面所起的作用的了解。结果表明，年龄、国内市场与国际市场、逗留时间和寻求的不同福利等变量之间存在相关性。讨论了目的地营销的影响，以及农村地区旅游业发展的进一步可持续目标。
This paper investigates if and to what extent socio-demographics and travel-related variables determine the individual daily and individual overall expenditure levels of tourists staying in rural areas of North Portugal. This analysis may help to increase understanding of the role that particular tourist segments and travel contexts play in enhancing the economic development of such areas. The results point to the relevance of variables such as age, domestic versus international markets, duration of stay and diverse benefits sought. The implications for destination marketing are discussed, as are further sustainability goals for tourism development in rural areas.
