This paper reviewed and analyzed peer-reviewed journals related to tourists' sustainable behavior and their contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) developed by the United Nations in the 2030 Agenda. Based on a keyword-driven search, 127 articles were identified as relevant from the selected journals and analyzed by content analysis with a pragmatic approach. The findings revealed that (a) the number of publications in this area had a downtrend except those focusing on 'attitudes'; (b) the geographical region of the articles mostly focused on few countries; (c) quantitative research methods were still dominant; and (d) around 58% of the articles related to Goal 8, 11 and 12 of the SDGs. This paper discussed the above findings to illustrate the overall trends of this topic in academia and its limitation.
