Abstract

Having engaged with domestic tourism, scholars have reported resident's reluctance in admitting to being tourists in their home country. This research note is intended to report an exploratory study on Israeli holidaymakers, which was undertaken to understand citizens' sense of being a tourist in Israel. The findings reveal that while the participants did not perceive themselves as tourists in their 'own' country, they admitted to feeling like tourists in specific circumstances encountered during their domestic travels.
