Endless plains that stretch as far as eyes can see, a landscape full of earhty colours and scents, Alentejo is a unique region in Portugal, a place where time seems to flow with the rhythm of the earth.

To visit Alentejo is to discover the rich heritage, the traditions, the gastronomy, fantastic landscapes and magnificent beaches of one of Portugal's most scenic regions.

The plains here are dotted with cork trees and olive trees and the white-washed villages seem to remind us that here, life has a different pace entirely.

The castles recall the history of the regions and the beautiful gardens remind one of the Moorish presence.

The Alentejo calls for a slower pace of travel and for authentic contact with the locals who are intensely proud of their traditions.

Alentejo is also a wine growing region of great tradition, with excellent wines, as remarkable as the landscape and the gastronomy of the region.
