Tourism flows between the countries of the Biocean Highroad Crossing

Abstract: The objective of this article was to analyze the flow of tourists among the countries of the Bioceanic Route. In this study, a quantitative analysis was used to investigate the international demand for tourism between Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Chile. As the Bioceanic Route is still an aspiration under construction, literature is scarce and this study presents itself as a pioneer. The results indicate that the traditional variables of demand, arrival of tourists, forms of travel, international events and arrivals in Mato Grosso do Sul presented an overview of the flow, which is incipient and with little integration between countries. The creation of the Bioceanic Route can contribute to the development of countries, especially in the area of tourism that is dynamic and growing in the world, and still little explored in South America.
