Methodology for making tourist routes in Veraguas

This is a research carried out in the province of Veraguas, Republic of Panama, which analyzes the knowledge of a group of people who are part of the Pastoral of Tourism. These agents were responsible for designing the tourist routes in all the districts of the province, within the framework of the World Youth Day (Panama, 2019). The problem arises from the lack of a model for the design of tourist routes that is adapted to the conditions of the place and the mentioned event. This analysis resulted in a diagnosis of the situation in terms of knowledge and management of a technique, in addition to guiding the members of the Pastoral de Turismo in the effective planning of tourism activities. The methodology followed was mixed: documentary and field. The results indicated the absence of knowledge to be able to comply with the request issued by the Diocese of the province. This favored the creation of a model to design tourist routes, adaptable, not only to Veraguas, but to any other place in Panama that requires it and that wishes to exploit local tourism.
