Portugal has announced that as today, Portugal will welcome travelers from the United States on June 15. And, direct flights are resuming on TAP Portugal, United, Azores Airlines and Delta from US gateway cities, too.
 
American visitors will just need to produce a negative COVID test performed at least 72 hours before arrival. ClearCOVID-19 restrictions are still in place around Portugal.




As to where Americans will want to go in Portugal, the Alentejo looks to be the perfect post-COVID destination.  It is set in the south of Portugal, between the River Tejo and the Algarve mountains. To the east it borders Spain and to the west - the Atlantic Ocean. It is a vast rural region, lightly populated, making up about a third of Portugal. The beauty of the landscape and the quality of its cycling, hiking, wines and historic traditions, combined with the wonders of its food and music, make it the type of place Americans will seek out.
