Özet: The dynamic nature of tourism demand and tourist behavior can be quickly affected by global events. The uncertainty that occurred in the tourism sector with the Covid-19 outbreak brought along uncertainties in terms of meeting the tourist product with the consumer. While this situation also caused a decrease in demand, tourist behavior has also been a matter of curiosity. The aim of the study is to reveal the risk, hygiene and safety perceptions of tourists in their travels in line with the restrictions and regulations that arise with the changing travel conditions during the Covid-19 process. In this study; touristic travel risk perception and hygiene-safety perception in the Covid-19 process was evaluated. 1152 people participated in the survey conducted within the scope of the research, and it was observed that with the Covid-19 outbreak, the arithmetic mean values of the travel risk perceptions and hygiene-safety perceptions of tourists are high and these perceptions do not change according to demographic data.
