Sequential Pattern Mining is an important component in establishing patterns and mining trends of certain activities. Insights into tourist movement and activity patterns is deemed beneficial for the tourism sector in many ways, such as designing better travel packages for tourists, maximizing the tourist activity participation and meeting the tourist demands. This research proposes to adopt mobile social media data for effective capturing of tourist activity information in Singapore and utilizes advanced data mining techniques for extracting valuable insights into tourist behavior. The proposed methods and findings of the study have the potential to support tourism managers and policy makers in making better decisions in tourism destination management.
