Welcome to the Leisure Tourism Database

Over 100,000 Abstracts now included

Leisure Tourism Database now contains over 100,000 abstracts, with more records added per year than ever before, including growing numbers of full text articles. We include all the core academic journals in leisure, tourism, hospitality, and sport economics and sociology, but thanks to the broader coverage of the CAB Abstracts database also cover relevant papers from e.g. the medical literature (for travel health), agricultural journals covering farm tourism, forest recreation papers from forestry journals and conferences, and other content not readily accessible on other databases.

All site content including the abstracts database and over 2000 news and analysis articles can be searched using the box below. For advanced searching of the database, a direct link to Advanced Search has now been added through the Abstracts Database tab on the top menu bar.
