Abstract

The purpose of this empirical study is to investigate the relationship between factors influencing the intention of homestay tourism and the buying behaviour of visitors. Located in India's Northern State of Uttarakhand, this research is being placed. Many homestay operators struggled to keep their businesses afloat because of a dearth of tourists. Social media marketing, eWOM, and safety trust in the destination are all examined in this study to see whether they have an impact on travel intention for homestay tourism. This study used structural equation modelling to test the hypothesis using AMOS v21. The findings depict that all independent constructs significantly influence intention for homestay tourism which affects tourists buying behaviour. The findings of this study will be helpful for researchers, tourists, government, and related agencies for sustainability in the tourism industry.
