Melukat is a ceremony to purify and cleanse the bad and dirty nature that exists in every human being.

The method used in this research is qualitative. Data collection techniques were carried out with two events, namely participatory observation and interviews with ten tourists who Melukat at Taman Beji Samuan and also two resource persons who are managers at Taman Beji Samuan who have worked for decades in that place.

The result of this research is the identification of Tourist Perceptions of Melukat Spiritual Tourism at Beji Samuan Park and providing information for tourists about the procession in Melukat activities so that tourists can understand Melukat activities at Taman Beji Samuan. Tourists' perception of facilities and accessibilities is still lacking because facilities such as places to eat are not widely available, and road access to the location is steep and climbing, making tourists tired. For this reason, more attention is needed from the village government and managers towards these shortcomings so that they can be corrected and increase the number of tourist visits.
