On the other hand, Wine Tourism is to pass through, the villages, look for local producers, and enjoy the buttery cheeses accompanied by fruity wines of Beira Interior.

To pare the wine with the local gastronomy is art, and this is what we do! While planning a Food and Wine Tours, we carefully select menus attending to guests' preferences and dietary restrictions.
Based on the assumption that Portugal is the selected destination for your Food and Wine Tour, our first planning stage starts with a conference call.
In the second stage, we need to determine the length of the trip, the number of guests and profile, and the vacation season. Having this information clarified, our travel advisors reunite to create a personalized plan based on the collected information.
Cheese lovers, for example, can make the most of a Food and Wine Tour in Portugal. From fresh to cured, creamy or semi-hard, from sheep's, cow's, or goat's milk, the variety is enormous and still tasty. Taste the different types, flavors, and textures and understand why Portuguese cheese is so famous.
If one appreciates olive oil tasting, our travel advisor will focus on producing olive oil areas so ones can enjoy Olive oil tasting. Like Portuguese wines, olive oils' variety of tastes and aromas is notable. A tasting can sharpen one palate and allow identification of the preferred olive oil. Choosing an olive oil can be as complex as choosing a wine: there are monovarietal (like Esporão Cordovil) and blends (like our Esporão Selecção). Some come from ripe olives, others using green olives, some from various degrees of ripeness, and others with an emphasis on the terroir.
For dessert fans, the options are endless and mouthwatering. Even if the famed pastel de nata is seriously delicious, one cannot miss Portuguese sweets like queijada, pão de ló, and pudim abade de priscos.
Yes, food plays an essential role on a Food and Wine Tour, though don't forget, a Food and Wine Tour likely includes a bunch of wine tastings and degustation menus. Consider it before assigning for this type of tour if you have kids. Traveling with kids during a foodie journey can be challenging and eventually not appropriate.
