La congestión es un fenómeno que preocupa desde hace décadas a los gestores de destinos turísticos. Pocos estudios se han desarrollado para evaluarla en ciudades patrimoniales sobre todo a partir de la percepción del turista, notando un escaso tratamiento del tema en Latinoamérica. Esta investigación evalúa la percepción de congestión del turista en el Centro Histórico de Quito, mediante aportes metodológicos que vinculan variables de tipo motivacional, emocional y conductual. Los resultados indican que la percepción de congestión es percibida mayoritariamente entre leve y moderada. Crowding is a phenomenon that has worried managers of tourist destinations for decades. Few studies have been developed to evaluate it in heritage cities from the perception of the visitor, noticing a poor treatment of the subject in Latin America. This research evaluates the tourist crowding perception in the Historic Center of Quito, through methodological contributions that link motivational, emotional and behavioral variables. The results indicate that crowding is perceived mostly between mild and moderate.
