Allowing the authorities and others involved to take into account the needs of the parish. In this work, a guide for the planning of indicators is applied that allows the analysis of environmental, economic, socio-cultural aspects and the visitor's experience within the area; with the aim of measuring and evaluating the sustainability process in the tourism sector of the San Lorenzo parish. The applied methodology is based on a documentary bibliographic research, whose information has been taken from printed materials such as books, magazines, texts, among others. Once the information was collected, it was sorted and then carried out its respective analysis of the situation in the area in which the case study is being carried out. The use of this tool is recommended to obtain concrete data that allow a critical understanding of the current situation and thus act early as it is a more sustainable destination; it is necessary over time to compare the results obtained with other destinations. For later, future studies can demonstrate the effectiveness of the use of this tool and raise awareness about its effectiveness.
