Resumo: This research seeks to interrelate the spatial-temporal behaviour of tourists in the historic centres of urban destinations with the evolution and configuration of Urban Tourism Precincts, based on the analysis of tourist flows and the delimitation of the different tourist areas. For this purpose, the city of Seville was used as a case study, since it is the third urban destination in Spain with the highest number of visitors and overnight stays per year. In terms of methodology, direct observation techniques and GPS tracking technology are used to quantify and track groups of tourists in route, thus obtaining the different types of Tourist Flows in Destination and Tourist Zones. This study shows that tourism is growing and that it has become evident beyond the traditional concentration of visitors in the historical centres. A process of redistribution of flows with territorial repercussions on the use of public space is under way.
