This study aims to examine and conceptualize the concept of sustainable tourism with bibliometric mapping. Articles published with the keyword “sustainable tourism” between 2013 and 2023 were searched from the Scopus database. Research area is limited to social sciences and environmental science, earth and planetary sciences, arts and humanities and multidisciplinary. 3133 articles were analyzed. Analysis was done with VOSviewer software. With the analysis, citations, documents, authors, countries, keywords, journals and universities were examined. In this way, clusters, themes and connections in the research area were determined. The cluster and links reveal the existence of different perspectives and methodologies in the field of sustainable tourism research. The closeness and hierarchy between the cluster, themes and connections represent the dialogue between different perspectives and methodologies. Finally, the focus themes were determined by keyword analysis. With this methodology, which allows to understand the conceptual structure of the research area, it has been revealed that sustainable tourism is an important concept that responds to the needs of the society, the sector and the administrators.
