In developed and emerging economies, important literature on sustainable tourism development has emerged. In the last decade, academics, businessmen, and politicians have increasingly recognized that clear guidelines are necessary for the development and sustainability of tourist destinations. The promotion of sustainable tourism development is urgent due to the double trend of global climate change and the tourism industry overcrowding worldwide. This review used scientific mapping techniques to examine 521 documents indexed in ScopusTM and WoSTM on the development of sustainable tourism in Latin America and the Caribbean. The information was processed in BibliometrixTM and VOSviwerTM to facilitate understanding the data. The objectives of the review were to document the size, growth, and distribution of this literature in Latin America and the Caribbean, to identify its main journals, authors, and documents, and highlight emerging issues and the emerging intellectual structure because of the limited availability of information in the current literature. The review provides guidelines for academics in the region to develop research that may favor the development of sustainable tourism in the future.
