Based on the identification of problems, several critical issues were found, such as less attractive tourist attractions, negative destination images, and declining tourist satisfaction and loyalty. This study is limited to tourists aged 18-55 years and domiciled outside Tanah Karo Kota. The sample was taken using the purposive sampling method with a total of 115 respondents. The data was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using the Smart Partial Least Squares (PLS) method. The results of the study show that all variables, tourist attractions, and destination image have a positive and significant influence on tourist loyalty mediated by satisfaction. The hypothesis with the highest score is the effect of satisfaction on loyalty with an original sample value (O) of 0.670 and a T-statistic of 6.005.
