We also note that many tourism organizations have become keen to plan their marketing activities very carefully to gain the satisfaction of their customers and outperform their competitors in the same field. The trend towards improving the quality of tourism services has become a major concern for many countries in order to achieve domestic economic growth. Tourism organizations have ensured that success and excellence will only be embodied by effective and efficient planning of the elements of the tourism marketing mix that is commensurate with the diverse and ever-renewed needs and desires of customers (tourists), which will ensure that they achieve the satisfaction of existing customers and gain new customers.
