    Abstract

    An ideal tour package should consist of itinerary elements such as the sequence of attractions with the scheduled arrival times and visiting durations at each attraction according to tourists’ preferences and characteristics. This research presents the methodology of designing tour packages by incorporating tourists’ spatio-temporal movements and tourist characteristics within scheduling processes. Therefore, it can provide tourists with personalised itineraries and support other stakeholders in managing the resources and facilities within attractions.
