The importance of this study lies in the need to adapt existing artisan techniques in the Tisaleo Canton to a tourism experience in order to promote tourism development, the dissemination of ancestral knowledge and wisdom, and economic improvement for artisans. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach, utilizing instruments such as the A5 sheets of traditional artisan techniques from the National Institute of Cultural Heritage and the checklist, which allowed for direct information gathering from the canton's artisans regarding artisan techniques. The results show that, despite limitations such as the lack of tourism planning and promotion, cultural tourism has contributed significantly to the economy of the canton's inhabitants, the valorization of cultural identity, and tourism development. In conclusion, experiential tourism is a viable means of local development, provided it is complemented by workshops, training for artisans, support from state institutions, and strategies for improved tourism development and performance.
