The analysis of museum visitors’ characteristics and, more particularly, of their visiting behaviours has become more and more relevant at an international level, while the Italian context denotes a widespread delay on such a topic. In such a framework, the paper aims to analyse a specific analysis method, the so called "observation survey" ("timing and tracking"), based on museum visitor behaviours study. The essay tries to highlight peculiarities of such an approach to visitor study, which allows - through a non-intrusive data collection method - the identification of some factors able to influence visiting processes taking place in museums, even in the perspective of recent technological developments.
Keywords: Museums, visitors, observation survey, visiting behaviour.
