Abstract

This study aims to analyze the research landscape on religious tourism and spiritual tourism within the context of destination management using a bibliometric approach. Data were retrieved from the Scopus database with the keywords “destination management” AND (“spiritual tourism” OR “religious tourism”). After filtering by language, publication stage, and year, a total of 210 documents were analyzed using VOSviewer software. The co-occurrence analysis with a minimum threshold of three occurrences identified 49 keywords that met the criteria and formed four main thematic clusters. The mapping results reveal that religious tourism is primarily examined from the perspectives of destination management, tourism economics, and cultural heritage preservation. In contrast, spiritual tourism focuses more on tourists' psychological and personal experiences. Both themes intersect strongly through issues such as sustainability, cultural heritage, and service quality. These findings highlight the need for a multidisciplinary approach to developing tourism destinations that balance economic and managerial goals with spiritual and social values. Future research is recommended to strengthen the integration between spiritual and managerial dimensions and enhance cross-national collaboration to broaden perspectives in the study of spiritual and religious tourism.

Abstract

Tourism regulations play a critical role in shaping destination competitiveness and influencing tourist travel decisions, yet empirical evidence on their effectiveness across different institutional contexts remains limited. This study investigates the impact of tourism regulations on tourist visit performance through a comparative quantitative analysis of Indonesia and Singapore. Using panel data covering the period 2010–2023, this research employs a fixed-effects regression model to examine the relationship between regulatory quality and tourist arrivals, while controlling for economic conditions and transport infrastructure. The findings reveal that tourism regulations have a positive and statistically significant effect on tourist visit performance in both countries. However, the magnitude of the effect is substantially stronger in Singapore, indicating higher regulatory efficiency and institutional effectiveness in translating policy interventions into tourism demand. These results support institutional and tourism demand theories, emphasizing that regulatory quality, rather than regulatory volume, is a key determinant of tourism performance. The study contributes to the tourism policy literature by providing cross-national empirical evidence on regulatory impacts and highlighting the importance of governance capacity in tourism development. From a policy perspective, the findings suggest that countries should prioritize regulatory coherence, administrative efficiency, and adaptive governance to enhance tourism competitiveness and resilience.
