Item Visitation patterns in Brazilian tourist caves: what do the visitors themselves think?(2022-01) Lobo, Heros Augusto Santos; Santos, Glauber Eduardo de OliveiraCaves are very specific natural attractions, which differ in terms of spatial confinement, lack of direct light and even the general idea of outdoor nature. They are usually associated with ecotourism and adventure tourism, which asks for smaller groups of visitors, both for safety reasons and due to the logistics of these touristic activities. In this context, a research was carried out in the scope of the social carrying capacity, with the aim of evaluating the effect that the number of concurrent visitors on a tour route can have on each visitor’s satisfaction with the visit made. To investigate this aspect, a research was conducted by interviewing 682 visitors from three different Brazilian show caves, located in Iporanga SP, Bonito-MS, and Lagoa Santa-MG, Brazil. The results show that the visitation volumes, including the number of people per group, total number of groups, and the waiting time to start the visitation, do not have relevant effects on the quality of the experience. Visitors were equally satisfied with the experience at the various observed levels of visitation. Based on the results and conclusions, new hypotheses and questions were raised, also considering possible changes in the crowd perception due to new practices of social distancing and travel behavior.Item Capacidade de Carga Real (CCR) da Caverna de Santana, Parque Estadual Turístico do Alto Ribeira (Petar) - SP, e Indicações Para o seu Manejo Turístico(Revista Geociências, 2008) Lobo, Heros Augusto Santos
