Abstract [en]

This study is based on tourists perceptions and reflections about their own behaviour when they travel. Our purpose is to study tourist behavior through the tourist and see what perceptions they have about behavior, through a phenomenographic study. We are aware of that tourist are individuals, which means that the perceptions can be different between our informants. Our study will also ensure how the tourist perceive themselves as tourist and what motivate them to travel. The motives the informants share with us created three tourist categories. In the tourist categories they perceive the motives different, which created two tourist types in every category. This study analyzes how the different tourist types perceived and reflected about their behaviour. Which showed that the informants did not perceive that they behave different or have a negative behavior when they travel. Where the difference in the behavior is that they spend more money and do things they normally don't do for themselves. This study's conclusion is that the tourist in same tourist type, makes the same trips and are surrounded by people in the same tourist type. Which create a similar behavior in the tourist type, and could be the reason why the informants don't perceive or reflect about their behaviour as different or negative when they travel.
