What you can expect

  • Experience the true essence of Alentejo on a private tour to Monsaraz and Vila Viçosa, two destinations rich in history, tradition, and authenticity.

    In Monsaraz, a medieval village dramatically perched above the Alqueva Lake, visit the impressive Castle of Monsaraz. Wander through ancient walls, narrow cobbled streets, and whitewashed houses that create a timeless atmosphere, enhanced by breathtaking panoramic views over one of Europe’s largest artificial lakes.

    Continue to Vila Viçosa, known as the “Princess of Alentejo,” with a visit to the magnificent Paço Ducal. This Renaissance palace, former residence of the Dukes of Braganza, stands out for its marble façade, elegant interiors, and deep connection to Portugal’s royal history.

    Complete your experience with a stop at a local wine seller for a tasting of Alentejo wines paired with traditional regional cheeses. Then, visit a local shop showcasing the beautiful loiça alentejana, famous for its vivid colours and rustic handcrafted designs.
