In fact, there are two phases in this approach: Firstly, understanding that landscape as a tourism product is the result of a portion of land that includes three cohesive identities within its boundaries: natural, cultural and aesthetic, which gives it its unique character; Secondly, that each of these three identities can provide the tourist a set of pre certain experiences that will allow him to discover the landscape in its entirety. I propose that these experiences, eleven in total, constitute the theoretical model of the complete experience of a landscape that is previously delimited and has its own character. The "landscape as a tourism product," presents itself through points (landscape elements) of interest, properly identified and placed in context by suggested itineraries. This points of interest must reflect the identity of the landscape and should provide the tourists the eleven experiences mentioned, whenever possible. It is intended that, at the end of the trip, tourists have discovered the landscape and what it represents, that is, its identities and character. To demonstrate the applicability of this model it will be applied to a landscape of the Lisbon and Tagus Valley Region, specifically the coastal region of Penicheporconcept of landscapelandscape aestheticstourismLisbon and Tagus valley regionPenichemaster thesis201846756
