Abstract: During the evolution of people, they have been guided by beliefs. And today, this ongoing process is being called with different names in the travel world according to the purpose of the trip. However, faith-based issues are still dominant factors on any kind of religious tourism. That is, religious tourism, pilgrimage tourism, halal tourism, Muslim travel or other forms of tourism are all faith-based and have many followers, sacred and holy destinations. Therefore, some researchers started to question the religious tourism and its other forms from the context of sustainability. Sustainability should be important not only in mass tourism, but also in other special types of travel, including ever increasing religious tourism. This study explores some conceptual frameworks that supports balance among the environmental, social and economic impacts that come from pilgrims in these destinations. Firstly, the paper analyses the meaning and essence of pilgrimage tourism and its other shapes, positive and negative socio-economic, environmental outcomes by literature review. Secondly, investigates some components which are the integral part of sustainability policy. Finally, conceptual framework of sustainable pilgrimage tourism models is suggested in the conclusion part.
