<description descriptionType=”Abstract”>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;This paper aims to present a methodology for the segmentation of travelers by studying social media profiles and extracting information on their preferences and demographic traits. Through the study of the sample&amp;rsquo;s social media profiles (Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter), information about travelers&amp;rsquo; demographics and preferences are combined for the segmentation of the tourists visiting a Greek region. From the analysis of the data, 10 preference-based segments occur, while the cultural-based division corresponds to the main national groups visiting the region&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
