Abstract: This is a study of demand by Swedish residents for recreational travel (long-distance daytrip excursions and tourist travel involving overnight stay). We estimate the relationships determining total recreational travel expenditures and the number of trips for six specific purposes (outbound international travel; domestic trips for visiting friends and relatives; staying in a leisure-cottage; participating in activities; seeing an attraction or event; and trips for making experiences). These results are obtained by general-to-specific autoregressive distributed lag modelling using monthly time-series from national telephone-survey data from 1989:1 to 1993:10. Estimated dynamic equations are used for an assessment of the impact on tourism of the major reform of the Swedish tax system 1990–91.
