Dimensions and indicators for the valuation of gastronomic tourist destinations: Dimensiones e indicadores para la valoración de destinos turísticos gastronómicos

Gastronomy tourism is an alternative tourism type that becomes a phenomenon that allows the generation of organoleptic and gastronomic experiences based on the culinary offer. The purpose of this paper is to identify the dimensions and indicators required to value a gastronomy tourism destination. Therefore, a qualitative approach study was conducted based on documentary research carried out in three phases: definition of criteria, information gathering and data analysis; in this last phase, a process of data reduction was contemplated, through the separation of elements related to the object of study, classification and grouping of data. As a result, a total of 14 dimensions and 94 indicators were identified, which will make it possible to carry out an evaluation process of a Gastronomy Tourism Destination. As a conclusion, in the literature, the term gastronomy tourism is only referred to as a complementary activity that a destination can offer, which includes autonomous or guided visits to food producers, gastronomic festivals, food fairs, among others, but it does not take into consideration other elements that are at the core of this type of tourism activity, such as: marketing, political issues, destination infrastructure, tourist profile and more.
