Abstract

This study has been conducted to reveal how the “Tourism Guidance" literature has developed over
the years. In this context, the research includes bibliometric analysis of
research articles published between 1980-2019 in the top five tourism journals
(Tourism Management, Journal of Travel Research, Annals of Tourism Research,
Journal of Hospitality and Tourism, Journal of Sustainable Tourism) as of 2017.
The analyses were carried out by using the parameters of the journals with the
highest number of articles, the titles of the articles, the keywords used in
the articles, the authorship of the articles, the conceptual and empirical status
of the articles, the research method, field of application, and data collection
technique used in the articles. The keywords “tour /tourist guide, tour leader, guide, and leader" were used
in the search of the articles obtained from various databases. Results of the
analyses showed that beginning from 1980, a total of 75 articles were published
in these journals until the first quarter of 2019. Most articles in the field
of tourism guidance were published in the journals of Annals of Tourism
Research and Tourism Management. The information production process in the
field of tourism guidance has increased since 2000.
