The Basque Country leads the classification of the most competitive Autonomous Communities in Spain.

The Basque Country leads the fourth edition of the Tourism Competitiveness Monitor: Monitur 2018, prepared by Exceltur, which represents an improvement in two positions compared to the previous report (Monitur 2014).

The report analyzes 82 indicators and it structures seven pillars. It takes into account factors such as marketing strategy, accessibility and connectivity or diversification of tourism products, among others.

The study gives the highest score to the Basque Country (112.6 points). This autonomy “has been the most consistent and rigorous in the policies applied by its government”, said Oscar Pelli. In addition, it obtained the highest average rating in each of the indicators. Due to this, it has allowed it to positionate itself as the community in which income per room grows the most from 2010 to 2018 (43.8%).
