Music and dance, as expressions of human emotion, play a key role in the different formation of people, since it allows them to happily interact and share spaces that will transcend the structure of their tastes and experiences to form an expression of art of critical attitude, the fact that it can bear fruit. In Pastaza, the cradle of 7 nationalities is fundamentally a place of diverse social and cultural interaction, in which there are different interests and motivations that must be addressed, such as complexity and heritage, heterogeneity, and diversity. The fundamental elements of collective construction, its ability to create diversity beyond the walls of the school, significantly affect the sociocultural environment. These are respected peoples that, although they have changed many customs, such as clothing and language for distinct reasons, they still take pride in their past and present as a true example for the various ethnic communities of Ecuador, because “civilization” does not mean abandoning the historical and cultural baggage of our existence. Starting from this reality, it is intended to use the artistic and cultural details of our original typical costumes as inspiration for this work through research work to rescue artisanal techniques such as seeds, feathers, clothing, and accessories, to later capture the movements of the body on stage. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.

This research realizes the technical and economic feasibility of the creation and implementation of an ADVENTURE TOUR based in an educational proposal and suggests that “It involves carrying out a series of activities that are generally developed in these natural spaces or their proximities. Unlike other forms of recreation, tourism adventure offers an original opportunity in which the participants experience more and focus on overcoming challenges, achieving collateral effects such as mental strength and releasing stress in each of the activities carried out” (Martínez and Fernández in Gran Tour: Revista de Investigaciones Turísticas 3:51–68, 2011). It is an active process which includes various activities organized in the trip to natural and exotic places, accessible and with a risk that produces adrenaline when doing these extreme sports which takes place in Santo Domingo de Los Tsáchilas and contains the following proposal.
