The relationship between information and tourism is essential when it comes to sustainable development and the tourism management o, whether about travel choices made by tourists or especially in terms of decision-making by tourism stakeholders. The aim of this study is therefore to understand how the relationship between the constructs tourism, stakeholders and information flow is being approached in the literature, in a perspective of sustainable tourism. Thus, bibliometrics was used, based on the descriptors: tourism, stakeholders and information flow, collected from the Web of Science (WoS). As the main results, 2021 was the year with most scientific production on the topics of "tourism and stakeholders" and "stakeholders and information flow", demonstrating recent attention, indicating scopes of research that can still be further explored. Besideso, in line with the initial scope of the research, Sustainability is the Journal that publishes the most studies Including these constructs. Finally, few studies deal with understanding the three constructs (tourism, stakeholders and information flow) together, validating  a theoretical gap that is still unexplored.
