The Alentejo is a region where time stretches and history settles into the land. In Évora, heritage is carved into Roman columns, Gothic arches and peaceful town squares. This UNESCO World Heritage city invites quiet reflection through centuries of Portuguese culture and identity.
Among marble churches and ancient ruins, Évora tells stories of faith, empire and everyday life. The streets hold the weight of the past without losing the warmth of the present.
In Monsaraz, stone walls and whitewashed houses overlook vast plains and the shimmering Alqueva Lake. The silence of this medieval village creates space to feel connected to something lasting and real.
In a wine shop housed in a former school, Ervideira offers a tasting that brings together tradition and innovation. Each glass reflects the character of the region and the passion of a family deeply rooted in Alentejo winemaking.
This tour invites you to discover more than places. It offers a sensory journey through history, landscape and flavour.
