This paper proposes a model for predicting the choice behavior of recreational traveler in the temporal domain considering accommodation cost and travel cost. These costs, unlike income and so on, can be controlled by planners. The model assumes utilities related to the earliness of home or hotel departure time, the lateness of home or hotel arrival time, and staying at the destination. In addition, the model assumes utilities related to choice of trip dates and travel mode. The proposed model is applied to one-day or overnight travelers visiting the destination by private car or train, with introducing some parameters obtained from the presented one-day recreational travel model.
