As a consequence of the study, it was revealed that studies on the digitalization of cultural heritage tourism have increased in recent years and that few studies have been carried out yet. This study significantly contributes to the field of literature in terms of displaying the global trends of a developing research field and guiding new studies to be conducted in the future in this field.
