About the Journal

Journal of Sustainable Tourism, Destinations and Visitor Behaviour (JSTDVB) specialises in sustainable tourism research, integrating destination development, visitor behaviour, environmental assessment, and socio-cultural resilience. Its unique advantage lies in uniting ecological, behavioural, community-based, and governance-oriented approaches to support long-term tourism sustainability and responsible travel. As climate adaptation, eco-tourism, heritage preservation, and destination risk management intensify worldwide, the journal fills a critical global gap by providing a comprehensive platform for interdisciplinary tourism scholarship. Its focus on policy, planning, and evidence-based behavioural insights ensures relevance for academics, practitioners, and policymakers. The broad international appeal and research diversity make it highly competitive for Web of Science indexing.
