Abstract

The tourism motivations of the senior tourists were used to analyze the effect on the tourism satisfaction. As result of the analysis, the rest motivation and knowledge expansion motivation bring positive effect except the social connectedness motivation. The senior tourist wanted to have their own time and preferred the tourism program focused on the leisure. They also seemed to have comparably high self-esteem. The self-development programs should be made and good relationship through the tourism satisfaction must be developed. The result of the study shows that the senior tourists are exhausted mentally and physically, and this fact affected a lot on the rest motivation which is one of the tourism motivations.
