For our latest TTG Luxury Journey, we teamed up with Visit Portugal to introduce six agents to one of the country’s most underrated regions.

Six lucky agents joined the latest TTG Luxury Journey to the Center of Portugal 

The Center of Portugal is, ironically, rarely the centre of attention.

For decades, travellers have bypassed the country’s "middle bit" in favour of its more trodden destinations: the Algarve for sun, Porto for culture. 

In fact, of the two million Brits who come to Portugal every year, less than 100,000 will explore this region.

But don’t be fooled – the Center of Portugal is an experienced host.
