Resumo: This study aims to explore the characteristics of the Mexican scientific output on tourism indexed in Web of Science, using bibliometric and social network analysis of the papers published in journals specialized in tourism. The evolution of the output, the types of journals, the key authors, the most productive organizations, the international collaboration, the features of the co-authorship social network, the topics addressed, as well as the main cited and citing publications are studied. The results yielded a total of 430 papers, published in 49 journals, by 732 authors affiliated with 173 organizations from 24 countries. It is shown that Mexican tourism research has an appreciable and growing presence in the Web of Science database, although there is certain duality too: the most part of it is published in Spanish in Ibero-American journals indexed in the Emerging Sources Citation Index, while only a minority part is published in English in journals indexed in the Social Sciences Citation Index, often through international collaborations, with a greater international scientific impact.
