Abstract

Tua Village in Marga District, Tabanan Regency, holds significant natural and cultural potential for ecotourism development, yet its resources remain underutilized. This study aims to explore and design ecotourism packages that integrate the village’s natural landscape and local culinary heritage to enhance community-based tourism. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, documentation, and desk research. Informants were selected using purposive and snowball sampling, involving local leaders, community elders, and residents near key attractions such as the Bayan Ancient Tree. The findings propose two ecotourism packages, Tabanan Breeze (half-day) and Tabanan Treasures (full-day), which combine cycling tours, rice field experiences, traditional games, and local cooking activities featuring Kaliadrem cake made with Marigold flowers, a primary agricultural commodity in Tua Village. These packages emphasize environmental sustainability, cultural preservation, and local empowerment.

Abstract

Sidan Tourism Village as a tourism village assisted by the Tourism Destination Study Program has shown its existence in the stages of tourism village development. Through the assistance of training on tourism village governance, as well as training on strengthening product packaging and storytelling, Sidan Tourism Village has succeeded in exploring its tourism potential and has an online promotional media equipped with storytelling. However, the digital platform owned by Sidan Tourism Village has not yet shown a significant impact on tourist visits. The existence of limitations in digital marketing can be an obstacle in the development of Sidan Tourism Village. In addition, the demand for tourists to stay overnight in the tourism village creates opportunities for the provision of homestays. Based on the situation analysis, there are limited human resources in Sidan Tourism Village in marketing and preparing homestays at this time, creating a need for assistance that aims to improve the ability of local communities in marketing tourism products and managing homestays. This activity is expected to provide benefits in the form of community readiness to market tourism products and manage their homes to be used as homestays with standards in accordance with the tourism industry so as to increase the economic impact of the community directly.

Abstract

Tourism is one of the economic sectors that has a major impact on ecosystems, so its sustainability is receiving increasing attention in academic literature. The sustainability approach cannot be seen from the destination as the supply side only, but also from the demand side, namely tourists. However, limited research has examined the behavioral side of tourists, particularly the factors driving green behavior in cultural heritage destinations leaving a critical gap in understanding demand-side sustainability.  As a UNESCO World Heritage site, Borobudur Temple faces challenges in maintaining sustainability amid high tourist activity. Although conservation efforts have been implemented, the extent and drivers of tourists’ green behavior remain unclear. This study employs a quantitative design using a structured questionnaire distributed to 160 purposively selected domestic tourists at Borobudur Temple. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS to identify the influence of internal and external factors on green behavior. The findings reveal that environmental aspects dominate tourist green behavior, followed by social and economic aspects. Internal factors, particularly trusted values, show a slightly stronger influence than external factors, although aesthetic experience also plays a key role. Conversely, destination knowledge and habitual green actions were found to be weak points. These results highlight the need for sustainability strategies that combine value-based education, improved informational tools, and behavioral nudges to help translate environmental awareness into consistent tourist actions.
