“…The ecotourism industry, valued at USD 185.87 billion in 2021, is experiencing a rapid expansion with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.2% from 2022 to 2030, underscoring its increasing global significance (Market Analysis Report, 2021). The industry's growth is driven by factors such as increasing interest in coastal and marine tourism (Pineda et al, 2023), the recognition of its economic benefits (Becker et al, 2023), and the emphasis on sustainability and environmental conservation (Samal & Dash, 2023). The growth of the ecotourism industry presents both opportunities and challenges, and understanding ecotourism loyalty is crucial for effectively managing and harnessing the potential of this expanding sector.…”

This study aims to evaluate the moderating role of social media influence before and after the trip in Vietnam and Czech Republic. Primary data, gathered during time lag data surveys conducted among international tourists travelling to the Czech Republic and Vietnam, was analyzed with the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) in R. The findings revealed that social media influence with higher level positively strengthened the connection between tourist motivation and the post trip destination image. Furthermore, social media had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between tourist satisfaction and ecotourism loyalty. However, there are strong differences between the destinations of developed and emerging economies. For Czech Republic, as developed economy, social media influence plays a more important role as a value-expressive mechanism at the post-trip stage whereas for the developing economy of Vietnam, social media plays a more important role as an information source before the trip. This study extends the Expectation Confirmation Theory (ECT) by introducing the moderating effect of social media influence, which first time measures this moderating effect before and after the trip accounting for the dynamic nature of the destination image as an antecedent of ecotourism loyalty. Limitations, theoretical implications, and recommendations for practice and further research are addressed. JEL Classification: L83, Z30, Z39

This book chapter deals with ecotourism under the umbrella of the new emerging theoretical framework of behavioral reasoning theory. This new emerging theory can be useful for exploring the untouched dimensions of ecotourism in developing countries specifically Pakistan. In this chapter, the importance and application of BRT theory and its implication in eco-tourism will be specifically discussed to understand the future perspectives regarding eco-tourism. The current prevailing situation of eco-tourism in developing countries and scope of theoretical lens for understanding ecotourism will provide grounds for decisionmakers as well as policy maker.
