A tourist may want to make a trip to escape from his/her personal or interpersonal environment (e.g., escape from routine everyday life) and to seek out psychological rewards in the personal or interpersonal dimensions (e.g., adventure or friendship building). Thus, these motivational factors explain why tourists make a trip and what type of experience, destination or activity they want.

Discussion Questions
Go to the internet site of a travel organisation. Do they have a separate section for group or organisational purchases? If so, how does the information in this section differ from their consumer site? If they do not have a separate site, go to another organisation until you find one that has a separate site for group or organisational purchases.
