The euphoria of tourism development in Indonesia as one of the leading industries of the country’s economy requires proper planning and an advanced strategy to maintain its sustainability. This chapter discusses strategies used by the Indonesian government for the implementation of sustainable tourism development. The strategy comprises three tourism programs: sustainable destination, sustainable observatory, and sustainable certification. The discussion developed in this chapter stresses that sustainable programs require serious commitment from the government and a carefully developed framework that suits the Indonesian context. Further, the proposed programs have to be introduced in closely monitored stages and are perhaps best developed through a certification program that may encourage positive impacts.

In recent years, the number of small independent tourism social enterprises has soared globally due to the rise of the Internet and tourists’ search for unique local experiences. These organizations are driven by a social purpose and have emerged as a reaction to conventional tourism development. They adopt a social justice approach with the aim to enhance community well-being. Importantly, they now exist as an accompaniment to the experiences provided by mainstream tourism that may not adequately satisfy the tourists’ quests for local, authentic, and high involvement experiences. This chapter reviews this independent operator context in Mauritius and examines the factors which contribute to meaningful local experiences.

This chapter aims to record the potency of Indonesian culinary products as a part of the tourism ecosystem for key regions in the country. In achieving its objectives, a thorough description and a model were used to explain the phenomenon in different locations. Ten culinary destinations which represent six areas of Indonesia were examined. The observed variables included the type of culinary offering, its history or storytelling behind its involvement, and the location of the production. It was found that the concept of building a supportive tourism ecosystem for development has only been applied in some areas. Except for Bali and Jogjakarta, other destinations are not yet ready to support culinary tourism developments.

The 2010 eruption of Mt. Merapi volcano in Indonesia was a major regional disaster. A community-based ecotourism was implemented in one village as a new alternative to recover from the event. The Participatory Innovative Learning and Action Research method was employed, with Pancoh Ecotourism Village as its focus. The researchers and villagers collected data using a variety of methods. After four years, growth emerged, and revenues increased. This success was partly due to the widespread training offered by universities, the use of the venue as an education site for sustainability, plus strong presentation of the nature and culture of the village lifestyle, which is attractive for urban citizens.

Consistent exposure to sunshine with high ultraviolet values has significant negative effects on human skin. Key risks include melanoma and the rapid onset of signs of ageing. For Chinese, these are viewed as undesirable, because their genetic legacy predisposes them to greater numbers of skin blemishes and because darker shades are culturally and socially viewed as less attractive. Properties in sunshine locations may need to modify aspects of their infrastructure and service delivery to meet the needs of the globally influential Chinese market. Shaded spaces, new activities, scheduling of experiences in the early morning, evening and at night, are all a part of the required innovations in experience design.

Alpine destinations have a large number of decentralized actors who behave autonomously, but they jointly contribute to the tourism product of the destination. Guests expect quality standards comparable to those they experience in large businesses. Leadership is needed that goes beyond pure management tasks. The analysis of “Showcase Stubai” reveals how leadership for an alpine destination in Austria initiated a successful development of summer tourism by means of courageous goals, simple processes, and regionally adapted measures. The destination of Stubai is increasingly becoming a model for the hiking theme in the alpine region. Impressive numbers, data, and facts have confirmed the achievement of this development throughout the last five years.

In this chapter, the analysis–action nexus will be addressed by reviewing studies from across the chapters. The broad themes covered have included governance and sustainability, consumer benefits and experiences, and networking among entrepreneurs and associated opportunities. It is argued that addition to tourism intelligence often lies in improving communication, building trusted connections, and affirming local networks. A focus on the need for trust, the use of tools for insights, the value of identifying new trends, and understanding target markets, together with the usefulness of training and an appreciation of time, help smooth the journey along the long and winding road from analysis to action.

This chapter highlights key experiences in using leading examples of tourism-linked technology during travel. Managerial directions are offered to hospitality and tourism businesses when employing contemporary technology applications. A carefully crafted autoethnographic approach, supported by netnography, provides the basis for the findings and recommendations. Two settings were chosen as iconic cases: exploring the city of Innsbruck and staying in a high-tech hotel in Vienna. The insights revealed that while technology provides advantages for tourists’ stays, less than thoughtful use can also disturb the experiences. The contribution to tourism intelligence from this study lies in the need for technology applications to create well tested, personalized and user-friendly services for diverse tourists and to design a communication system to anticipate problems.

Organizations often view current market situations from the customers’ viewpoints. To do so, they face an incredibly vast volume and variety of data. Data visualization makes huge amounts more accessible and understandable and helps to communicate complex information more accurately and effectively. This chapter discusses how to utilize user-generated data in the tourism industry to enhance the customer experience through data visualization tools. Five analysis tools are used to identify the factors that contribute to hotel guests’ dissatisfaction in five top city destinations. Identifying and eliminating dissatisfaction is the first step in enhancing the quality of the experience and in fostering loyalty in the long run.

This chapter estimates the economic contribution of Keraton (Palace) in Java, Indonesia. Questionnaires were distributed among its tourists to gather information on their profiles, trip characteristics, experience, trip segments, and spending; it was concluded that Sekaten makes a significant economic contribution to the economy of the city of Yogyakarta and this value can be enlarged. Attention to the quality of facilities and services, local attitudes, restructuring pricing, and focusing on more affluent attendees are areas for future improvement. Better partnerships among stakeholders hold the key to improving the marketing, investment, and support services.
