Abstract: Abstract Camping has been a well-liked vacation spot since the pandemic. However, academics continue to conduct studies on camping tourism activities infrequently. Tourist motivation, leisure activities, and inclinations to return are the main topics of this study. This study aims to determine the moderating effect of tourists’ sensation seeking in camping activities and the mediating effect of tourists’ experiences on revisit intention. The outcome may give service providers of camping tourism useful information. Three hundred fifty individuals were selected for the study using purposive sampling. The structural equation model was chosen to measure recreation experiences in mediating the tourists’ revisit intention, and sensation seeking was tested for its moderating impact on the tourists’ revisit intention. The findings demonstrated that outdoor recreation experiences could mediate motivation towards revisit intention, and the sensation-seeking construct significantly moderated the relationship between variables. The impact of mentoring on revisit intention, which is influenced by gender, can be investigated further utilizing different theoretical frameworks or methods.
