description This article analyzes the development of rural community-based tourism from a case study in the municipality of Sibaté in the department of Cundinamarca, Colombia. The objective of this article is to identify the success factors that determine tourism development in the rural territory, its relationship with the communities and territorial appropriation. The methodological horizon was structured from a mixed approach and the case study was used as a method; in-depth interviews were conducted and the analysis process was supported by the grounded theory of the data. The results show that the determining factors in the development of tourism are community empowerment, recognition of the symbolic value of local resources and community-based organization. It is concluded that the "Sibatenado" tourism initiative succeeded in activating the multifunctionality of the rural territory, overcoming the traditional productive vision and potentiating the possibilities of revaluing the rural territory.
