In the scientific research in tourism over the last ten years, there have been different opportunities, such as new tourism trends related to olive oil. The oleic process and production seen as a product can be considered a tool for tourism marketing. To understand which is the contribution of the oleotourism for the quality of the Terras Trás-os-Montes tourism destination, this study uses the research method of data collection and semi-structured interviews to know, on the one hand, the tourism destination of the Terras Trás-os- Montes region of Portugal, and on the other hand, the olive population that looks for sustainable development in tourism. As initial findings emphasize the significant impact of tourism on the destination’s development and the advantages reaped by the olive sector from these tourist activities. The sustainable practices and the contri- bution of tourism demand are sources of highlights extracted from this study. Future studies should follow this line of research and seek to increase the sample collected to present more reliable and concise results.engTourism segmentationDestination qualityOleotourismconference object10.1007/978-981-99-0337-5_40
