Type: article
Abstract: This article reflects on indigenous tourism in Brazil from the perspective of empirical studies. This is a bibliographical review of scientific productions that addressed indigenous tourism in Brazil, from 1999 to 2021. The analyzed collection is composed of 36 works. Studies with approximately 35 indigenous peoples were used, and most of the research was dedicated to communities in the North and Northeast regions. The collection was classified into seven central themes, most of which focused on knowing the impacts of tourist activity on the cultural, social, environmental and economic aspects of communities. This was followed by research that analyzed communities’ strategies for appropriating tourism, and how the activity can be a means of resistance and strengthening of identity. Ethnographic research was one of the most used methods, as well as participant observation and interviews. An agenda for future research was proposed.
