abstract: 'This paper analyses the determinants of flows of domestic tourism in
|
||||
|
||||
Uruguay in the context of an extended gravity model during the period
|
||||
|
||||
2010-2012. This analysis is done at a disaggregated level, considering
|
||||
|
||||
the bilateral flows between two regions (department) of the country, one
|
||||
|
||||
as source of tourism and the other as the destination. Gravity models
|
||||
|
||||
suggest that tourist flows depend positively on the size of each region
|
||||
|
||||
(department in Uruguay) and negatively on the distance between them. The
|
||||
|
||||
extended version includes explanatory variables to characterize the
|
||||
|
||||
supply and demand for domestic tourism.
|
||||
|
||||
Three models are estimated, one for each year, which allows to compare
|
||||
|
||||
and to estimate the robustness of the results. The methodology of
|
||||
|
||||
estimating applied (following Santos, Silva and Teynero 2006)) was
|
||||
|
||||
Pseudo-Poisson Maximum Likelihood with cross-section data which has been
|
||||
|
||||
proven, is one of the most appropriate for estimating gravity models.
|
||||
|
||||
Domestic tourist flows are represented from the number of trips from one
|
||||
|
||||
region (department) to another, for the 19 departments of the country
|
||||
|
||||
within a calendar year.
|
||||
|
||||
Results obtained in this paper constitute a first contribution to the
|
||||
|
||||
analysis of the determinants of domestic tourist movements, and provides
|
||||
|
||||
potentially valuable information for decision-making of public and
|
||||
|
||||
private sectors (planning strategies, policy, marketing, communication).
|
||||
|
||||
The study shows that tourist flows depend positively on the size of
|
||||
|
||||
population of each department and negatively of the distance that
|
||||
|
||||
separates them. This result is in line with the general gravity models
|
||||
|
||||
and also with the results recently found in another countries (Galvez,
|
||||
|
||||
Muro and Such, 2014; Massida and Etzo, 2012; Marrocu and Pacci, 2013).
|
||||
|
||||
The regions (departments) with higher income and the capital of the
|
||||
|
||||
country (Montevideo) are the main sources of domestic tourists. The
|
||||
|
||||
research also shows that the departments that share a border have
|
||||
|
||||
greater tourist flows between each other. In addition, departments with
|
||||
|
||||
ocean coasts or good quality accommodation have a significant
|
||||
|
||||
comparative advantage over the others.
|
||||
|
||||
On the demand side, income earnings of people, as well as being
|
||||
|
||||
determinant of the number of tourists that a department emits, has an
|
||||
|
||||
elasticity greater than unity, showing that domestic tourism behaves as
|
||||
|
||||
a luxury good. It is important to highlight the role that the capital as
|
||||
|
||||
an issuer of tourists. Montevideo is the city where the main terminals
|
||||
|
||||
of public transport are located and begins the national road network,
|
||||
|
||||
allowing direct connection of the city with any department of the
|
||||
|
||||
interior. The results suggest also that strategies of communication and
|
||||
|
||||
promotion of tourism products and destinations, both public and private
|
||||
|
||||
utilities, are oriented towards/from the capital (Montevideo) and the
|
||||
|
||||
regions with higher levels of population and income. In this regard, it
|
||||
|
||||
is important to think of better transport links between the different
|
||||
|
||||
departmental capitals that, although have transport infrastructure
|
||||
|
||||
(terminals and road network), in some cases, do not have direct mobility
|
||||
|
||||
to all departments if no prior connection to Montevideo.
|
||||
|
||||
From the supply-side point of view, the Atlantic Ocean beaches are the
|
||||
|
||||
main comparative advantage of the departments as a tourist destination.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the reason that explains the fact that the departments of
|
||||
|
||||
Maldonado and Rocha concentrate much of the tourism of sun and beach
|
||||
|
||||
during the summer months. One of the unexpected results of this work was
|
||||
|
||||
the negative impact on incoming tourism flows of the departments that
|
||||
|
||||
have coasts on the Rio de la Plata. This result is closely related to
|
||||
|
||||
the concentration of domestic tourism in the summer season where the
|
||||
|
||||
preferences of tourists are sun and beach, and the quality of water and
|
||||
|
||||
sand is better on the Atlantic coast.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, it was found that the existence of good quality
|
||||
|
||||
accommodation (3-5 stars) causes a differential effect on the decision
|
||||
|
||||
about which department tourists choose to vacation. Controlled by the
|
||||
|
||||
other factors, the existence of differential lodging has a positive and
|
||||
|
||||
differential effect on the inflow of tourists.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, there is a negative effect on domestic tourism flows if
|
||||
|
||||
departments share border with Argentina. In these regions, the border
|
||||
|
||||
effect is clearly unfavourable. Therefore, in these cases should be
|
||||
|
||||
maximized efforts to improve the competitiveness of services, from the
|
||||
|
||||
quality of services provided and tourism products offered.
|
||||
|
||||
In more general terms, the results show the rationality of that
|
||||
|
||||
communication strategies and promotion of tourism products and
|
||||
|
||||
destinations, are geared towards Montevideo and the departments with
|
||||
|
||||
major population and income per capita. It is also important to address
|
||||
|
||||
these efforts to neighbours departments, as empirical evidence shows a
|
||||
|
||||
positive relationship between tourist flows and the fact that
|
||||
|
||||
departments share administrative boundaries.
|
||||
|
||||
In terms of the policy implications of these results, it would be
|
||||
|
||||
interesting to think of departmental or regional agreements for the
|
||||
|
||||
creation of a network of promotion, where the adjoining departments can
|
||||
|
||||
benefit from the implementation of joint tourist promotion strategies.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, thinking of an efficient marketing, this work provides relevant
|
||||
|
||||
information on the system components of internal tourism in Uruguay: the
|
||||
|
||||
peculiarities of the source market of tourists in the country and also
|
||||
|
||||
provides information on the competitive position of destinations. Taking
|
||||
|
||||
into account these information would help to attract and retain domestic
|
||||
|
||||
tourists.
|
||||
|
||||
Thinking in extensions of this work, a first one that emerges is the
|
||||
|
||||
incorporation of the information for the years 2013 onwards (not
|
||||
|
||||
available at the date of preparation of this paper). For example,
|
||||
|
||||
extending the information a couple of years would enable applying other
|
||||
|
||||
estimation techniques (pool cross section and panel data) that would
|
||||
|
||||
enrich the analysis. In turn, it would make it possible to analyse the
|
||||
|
||||
robustness of the results obtained by applying alternative estimation
|
||||
|
||||
methods (Models Zero Inflated, etc.) and to explore a better way to
|
||||
|
||||
capture the effect of the (not significant as these results)
|
||||
|
||||
multilateral resistance.
|
||||
|
||||
Moreover, the desegregation of analysis between tourist flows
|
||||
|
||||
corresponding to regular trips, no regular trips and excursions, could
|
||||
|
||||
yield to relevant results for public policy. Regular trips have
|
||||
|
||||
different characteristics than the other (more associated with vacation
|
||||
|
||||
travel) and it is important to considering them separately.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, another possible variant of this study is to consider a
|
||||
|
||||
different regional disaggregation, for example using the regionalization
|
||||
|
||||
criteria defined by the Ministry of Tourism and Sports, grouping them in
|
||||
|
||||
six tourist areas (Montevideo, Southeast, Central, South west, Coast,
|
||||
|
||||
North).'
