Abstract

Awareness of tourism destination sustainability is important to protect the destination from damage and overexploitation. Studies on tourism destination sustainability are still in the early stages. Scholars have just developed the indicators and instruments that will be used to measure the destination sustainability. The purpose of this paper is to identify factors that influence culture-based tourism destination sustainability. We present regression analysis of potential antecedents of culture-based tourism destination of 5 cultural destinations in Central Java involving 200 local people. The result suggests that tourist guides’ performance has the strongest effect on culture-based destination sustainability. It is complemented with resources performance and innovation. This indicates the importance of tourist guides’ training and orientation in building tourists’ awareness.
