Abstract:
The growing popularity of cultural tourism destinations has been the subject of numerous studies for decades. These destinations significantly contribute to the tourism industry by promoting and developing tourism products, attracting many tourists. Thus, it requires a thorough understanding of mapping the tourist's revisit behavioural intention to this destination. This also requires investigating what antecedents contribute to tourists' revisit behavioural intentions. Therefore, through a bibliometric analysis, this study addresses the overview of the current scope and boundary of knowledge to map the tourists' behavioural intentions to revisit cultural destinations. Data from 125 Scopus articles from 2003 to 2023 were analysed, and a review analysis was carried out using VosViewer and Biblioshiny software. A PRISMA approach is used to identify the research articles. The findings revealed that articles published from 2019 onwards have gradually increased in this area of research. Similarly, the author's contribution and network analysis results have been produced that revealed the antecedents of behavioural intention to revisit, such as Tourists' Destination Image, Tourists' Satisfaction, Tourists' Memorable Experience, Tourists' Motivation, and Perceived Authenticity. The study concludes that tourism managers and policymakers need to look at these aspects to develop the tourism industry while focusing on the cultural destination of the region.
