Abstract

Gastronomy is an important part of tourism, an element that by sharing one dish and its ingredients can bring culture, traditions, and flavors from one destination all together. One of the most attractive parts of the gastronomic offer from a territory is the history behind the dish, which also includes special ingredients and way of preparation passed from one generation to the other. This culinary experience is a key motivation for a tourist to visit a specific destination. This study analyzes the traditional gastronomic offer from Guayas, Ecuador and the relationship between gastronomy and the development of local tourism. The main result will show the importance of a well-structured offer to influence the motivation of a tourist to go to a specific destination. This will increase the demand of gastronomic tourism and create economic growth in a sustainable matter.
