ENAs the importance of tourism is growing worldwide, every country is putting effort to encourage people visiting it. Local municipalities as well as state governments are trying to attract visitors in various ways; however, the emphasis is often put on attracting foreign tourist. This paper contributes to an existing tourism literature by analysing determinants of local tourism satisfaction. The problem that is solved in the manuscript is: what are the factors that influence local tourist satisfaction with their holiday in a country? Hence the paper aims to determine the factors influencing local tourist satisfaction with their holiday in Lithuania. In order to reach the aim, questionnaire survey was provided.
