“…For instance, if the core of a touristic experience is an emotion (Moyle et al 2019;Bastiaansen et al 2019), Nieuwenhuis (2017) explained that emotions work as a label in the brain, signaling importance, like a little tag saying 'keep'. In this way, Coelho et al (2023) emphasize including the memory in the context of the tourism experience. In this follow-up, among the initial stages is the allocation of attention, as advocated by Garcia-Garcia (2017), where attention is measured in the brain through methodologies such as ET, EEG, biometrics and brain imaging.…”

In the context of the technological era, the smart tourism construct serves as a bridge between human and the artificial worlds, combining social sciences and neurosciences. This study aims to explore smart tourism through neuroscientific methods in order to shape the future of tourism destinations, using a hybrid methodology combining bibliometric techniques and content analysis. The findings reveal the integration of diverse scientific domains, highlighting a transdisciplinary approach. They offer clear evidence that neuroscientific methods in smart tourism integrate multiple areas of scientific knowledge, surpassing disciplinary boundaries. “Destination” stands out alongside “emotion”, “visual attention” and eye tracking (ET). The collaboration network reveals the emergence of a new school, called neurotourism in the 21st century, formed mainly by actors and organizations from the Global North, evoking the need to include the Global South in the research scenario. The predominant methods include ET, heart rate (HR), and electroencephalography (EEG), suggesting triangulation with traditional methods for robust results. Virtual reality emerges as the primary immersive technology, promising insights when integrated with neurosciences. This study’s practical and theoretical contributions guide smart tourism strategies and enhance destination experiences through neuroscientific methods, addressing a gap in the scientific literature while advancing ontological and epistemological understanding.
