Objective: to analyze, from the notion of participatory governance, the perception of government sector representatives, business leaders, and researchers on collaborative processes and citizen participation in the Puerto Vallarta Metropolitan Area (Mexico). Methodology: a qualitative research through semi-structured interviews. Results: in the surrounding municipalities efficient collaborative processes must be created between the public, the private sectors, the academy, and the organized civil society, as well as encouraging co-responsibility and greater proactive participation. Limitations: the sample did not include civil society. Value: the enrichment to the analysis of governance in an interstate metropolitan tourist destination, where the participation of a considerable number of political actors is involved. Conclusions: there is no metropolitan government for the collaborative development of public policies, however, progress was achieved in the creation of a government-society partnership structure, which needs to be monitored to evaluate whether the decisions benefit the sustainable development of the destination or not.

Palabras llave : collaborative processes; governance; citizen participation; perception; metropolitan tourist destination; Puerto Vallarta.
