| Summary: | A bibliometric examination of sustainable development and travel agency research from 1997 to 2021 was used to uncover intellectual frameworks, developing trends, and future research prospects. CiteSpace was used to do a comprehensive search of 302 core articles from Web-of-Science and to analyze the results. The findings showed a normal growth in the amount of research, with major study topics. The articles with the most citations are mostly from the last 15 years. The USA has a solid leadership in publications, followed by Taiwan and Sweden. The network of authors shows a core structure on the margins where the European Commission and Bucharest University Economy Studies are ranked first. The discovery of structural flaws, the publication of critical papers, and the emergence of new emerging trends emphasize the priorities in the sustainable development and travel agency domains, pointing to new study prospects. This research is unique in that it performs a temporal and dynamic analysis of the last 24 years utilizing CiteSpace to analyze co-citation and co-occurrence networks.
