The results of Friedman test illustrate that rural tourism in different physical, economic, social and cultural fields have a significant difference up to 99% confidence level. The results of logistic regression by using the forward selection method also illustrate that the variables of income and expenditure of rural households up to 99% confidence in the regression equation were examined and Wald Statistics represent the meaningful level of the variables in the regression equation. According to the results of the hierarchical cluster analysis test, the villages of the first cluster (Garmabdar, Zayegan, Lalan and Ab Nik villages) and the village of the second cluster (Ruteh) have the highest rank in the field of development of second homes tourism, respectively. The villages of the third cluster (Fard Abad and Sang Bon) and the fourth cluster (Labark), although they have many tourist attractions, they have a lower level of development in comparison to the villages of the first and second clusters.
