Abstract

In the first half of 2024, Ecuador received a total of 589,082 tourists, with an annual growth rate of 12.77%, and an increase in jobs of 5.12%, representing a participation of the tourism sector in the GDP of 2.06%. However, a review of the state of the art shows several methodologies and tools contribute to the development of rural tourism sites and des-tinations, which are applied according to the characteristics of each te-rritory analyzed. Therefore, our objective was to determine, through the cluster method, the classification, decision-making, and the different tourist routes and circuits that will strengthen the development of rural areas in the province of Azuay. The proposed methodology allows for the identification of four clusters to be taken into account when planning a tourist circuit or route. The most important cluster is nature with 46.6%, followed by gastronomy and art and culture with 40%, and finally adven-ture with 13.3%.
