Tourism is a complex social, economic, political, cultural process, and requires a sociological look that can accurately and scientifically analyze all these relations between tourism and other sectors of society. One of these relationships is the relationship between travel experience and the personality system. Travel experience is considered as a variable that is related to the personality system of the people, and travel and recreation can give special attributes to the personality of the individuals. This study aims at explaining the relationship between travel experience and the personality system. In this way, Eric Cohen and Parsons' theory has been used to configure the theoretical framework. Data were collected through a quantitative method. The results of data analysis showed that there is a significant correlation between all three types of travel experience and personality system. The variables of existential experience and recreational experience have a direct and positive correlation with personality system and the experimental experience has a negative correlation with the dependent variable.
