摘要:With this paper, we address the issue of perceived quality of the Portuguese health and wellness touristic product. We use four distinct but complementary steps. The first one seeks to identify core aspects of health and wellness tourism found in Portuguese tourism offerings. The second stage addresses issues of quality, focusing on the dominant principles of Total Quality Management (TQM). The third step allows us to identify the model of Expectations and Perceptions of Service Quality (SERVQUAL). The fourth stage reflects a set of assumptions that may lead to further studies that are based on a logical integration of TQM with the assumptions of the SERVQUAL model. And finally, we propose a management model (GEQUATUR) based on assumptions of both TQM and SERVQUAL models
