Abstract

Abstract

Considering the resources that tourism may bring to this environment, sustainable tourism is extremely important to consider. Sustainable development is regarded as one of the tenets of global economic, social, and political development. One of the most significant markers of travel's growth is safety; comfort, convenience, and safety are key factors that draw travelers to explore the world's diversity and go on from there. The primary goal of the research is to determine the safety aspects of travel by examining and analyzing ten of the most prestigious and reputable studies in the field that are available in the Scopus Statistical Base. The study seeks to promote this important element by identifying the key principles and safety dimensions of tourists in sports and improving their safety and health as its primary objective. To achieve this goal, 214 international articles from multiple sources around the world that were published on the Scopus Statistical Base were selected and reviewed. The study used specific software such as Publish OR Perish, Excel, RStudio, and Maxqda2020 to search for, identify, and evaluate traveler safety elements in sports. The results obtained from this analysis and content analysis led to the identification of five subjects in the safety cycle of tourists in sport that were repeated in the top ten articles of the field, including prevention of terrorist attacks, transportation safety, population safety, safety of venues, and adventure tourism. The findings also demonstrated how important it is for travelers to understand the safety component and how it might enhance their trip. It provides a deeper understanding of visitor safety and aids in the implementation of improved strategies by destination managers and tourism service providers to preserve and enhance safety in tourist environments.
