Abstract

This study is carried out within the scope of the topic “innovative projects and good practices in inland tourism,” and it will present the case of the Portuguese project Eça de Queiroz Foundation. The Eça de Queiroz Foundation was founded in 1990 on some of the properties left by the 19th-century Portuguese writer, Eça de Queiroz: the Vila Nova farm and house in Santa Cruz do Douro (Tormes/Baião/Portugal), a small inland village in the Douro, a Portuguese region whose landscape is classified as World Heritage. Currently, the organization has several areas of activity, such as cultural, agricultural, and commercial intervention. The foundation also offers numerous products and services that enhance the promotion of Tourism in the Northern Portugal Inland Region.
