Abstract

This book chapter aims to discuss the importance of perception and co-creation in the managing and marketing of rural tourism experiences by focusing on the sensory dimension. Additionally, it presents major methodological approaches that have been used to analyse the sensory tourist experience. Finally, using three cases, the chapter illustrates how to use sensory elements in managing and marketing rural tourism experiences to enhance the overall experience quality at the destination.
