Abstract: With this article I intend to bring to the attention of the reader the opportunity of rural development in general, and rural tourism and partnerships in particular. This solution responds to the current situation rural tourism it’s facing, to be characterized further, as the Cinderella of Romanian tourism. Statistically, this form of tourism attracts more tourists each year, especially foreigners, with a considerable increase compared with other forms of tourism. Rural tourism transforms people, some tourists even abandoning their home countries, buying traditional houses in Romania that become seasonal or even permanent residences. The public-private partnership thus becomes a mission undertaken by several stakeholders, being operationalized through a series of objectives that come to support local communities. As so are build the foundations of sustainable and solid tourism, with real chances of success both nationally and internationally.
