Abstract
This paper emphasises how the quality of tourist services can be
evaluated. The first part presents the best known models developed
by specialists for service quality evaluation, then the authors created
their own model. According to this model, a global quality evaluation
indicator of tourist services was proposed, based on certain aspects
of quality aimed by both the provider and the customer/consumer of
tourist services. The calculus of this indicator was exemplified in the
case of a Romanian tourist area, Vatra Dornei.
