Abstract:
The interrelationship among motivations, satisfaction, and revisit intentions remain largely unexplored. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to facilitate understanding on the relationship among these constructs. A survey of 650 international tourists shows that four key factors: culture, destination attractions, social contact and adventure-novelty influence tourist decision to visit northern Ghana. The study established that tourists’ motivation has relationship with their satisfaction; likewise, satisfaction is a determinant of their revisit intentions. It is recommended that service providers and destination managers should work at ensuring tourists satisfaction in order to ensure repeat visits
