| Tiivistelmä: | This article discusses the issue of the budget traveler (backpacker) compared to mainstream tourists, emphasizing travel motivations, subjective risk judgments risk and tourist worries and their self identifications. 1880 tourists to Norway participated in the research, of which 211 were budget travelers. Few motivational differences rose between groups, but budget travelers were less motivated by needs for luxury and relaxation. They also judged travel related hazards (including food risk) to be of less risk. Their overall travel related worry was uniform to other travelersÂ’, nevertheless they worried less about terror and foreign cultures. Budget travelers also saw themselves to be less typical tourists than mainstream tourists assessed themselves to be. |
