Abstract

The prospective sustainability of regions often hinges upon the interconnected networks comprising the tourism sector in numerous destinations. The presented research seeks to enhance our comprehension of how networks are applied within the realm of tourism, providing a roadmap for future investigations, and thereby advancing the implementation of tourism networks in different regions. By considering the Scopus database, which encompasses the largest repository of articles related to this subject matter, and adopting the PRISMA methodology, we identified and examined eighteen case studies for our study. The results of our analysis highlight the significant role that networks play in facilitating the adoption of sustainable practices, ultimately contributing to the potential of long-term sustainability for tourism destinations. However, our findings also underscore the existing gap in achieving comprehensive sustainability, indicating that there is still a considerable journey ahead for both private companies and public entities. Encouragement and support for practices that promote sustainable destinations remain essential components of this ongoing endeavour.
