The field research that led to this paper was conducted during the authors’ participation to a national research project on hidden tourism estimation: the aims, methodology and results of the research have been published elsewhere. The present paper is the result of the joint work of the authors. However, O. Giambalvo wrote the sections ‘Statistical Methodology and Tourism Statistics’ and ‘Study Findings: Demand’ and S. Volo wrote all the remaining sections.
