The visual-based video has become the visit intention triggered with four situational facilitators which are richness, vividness, fluency, and novelty. In the recollection stage, the images of places, moments, and views of tourism experience video triggers recollection memories process and evoked a positive emotion that refers to the sense of longing for a particular tourist site and affect consumers' word-of-mouth intention. Several memorable tourist experiences dimensions, related to the results are identified, which are hedonism, novelty, and meaningfulness.
