Resumo: Research on sustainable tourism, tourists, and well-being has key implications for tourism policies, which must align with theSDGs to enhance the well-being of visitors and local communities. This paper analyzes the evolution of scientific productionthrough a systematic literature review over the last 25 years. Various dimensions of well-being in tourist behavior are examined,including subjective, psychological, and financial well-being, and their relationship with different forms of tourism and sustainability. The results allow us to identify the evolution of research and provide a comprehensive overview of the current stateof research in tourism, well-being, and sustainability, highlighting knowledge gaps and proposing future research directions.Interdisciplinary approaches and methodologies are studied to better understand the interactions between well-being and tour-ist experiences. The tourism sector has room for improvement if, in addition to seeking tourist well-being, it adopts strategiesaligned with current sustainability commitments established in the SDGs. © 2026 The Authors
