Abstract

In this research letter we reflect on a new mixed methods approach to gaining a deep understanding of shared tourism experiences and the memory of them. We combined an adaptation of descriptive experience sampling with self-recorded conversations and in-depth interviews. The method is described and critically reflected upon with suggestions for the future use of this approach within events and tourism research.
