Description

On this tour we will leave in the morning towards the deep Portugal. By going across rolling hills, valleys and never ending landscapes we will finally enter theAlentejo region. Known by its large plains and high Summer temperatures, the Alentejo is still the home of some important industries such as cork and the site of production of some of the best Portuguese wines.

Our first stop will be near the very small town of Arraiolos where we are going to visit our first winery the "Monte da Ravasqueira". Here you will find the traditional spirit of the Alentejo wines. The old white washed houses were transformed into cellars where, after carefully studying the region, some of the best Portuguese grape varietals are turned into superior quality grapes. During our private touryou will be taken alon the vineyards, wine cellars and even the bottling line if you wish. At the end you will be invited to taste the wines of the property and understand why is the Alentejo known as one of the best wine producing regions in Europe.

It will be now time to leave towards Évora. The winding walled city of Évora, capital of the Alentejo region is a World Heritage Site by UNESCO and will attract you for its medieval appearance. It will be difficult to stop walking around the very narrow streets of its historical centre. Besides several other monuments to be visited (such as the Cathedral, Saint Francis church and the ancient University) it is also in Évora that is located one of the most significant traces of the roman occupation in the Portuguese territory: the Roman Temple, from the 1st century and probably dedicated to the Emperor Augusto but famous under the name of Diana's temple (name associated with the goddess of the hunters). Take the chance to have lunch here, since Évora - as any other genuine city in Alentejo - is well known for its fantastic traditional gastronomy. A "meeting" with the Portuguese history and the genuine houses from the South of Portugal, with their white washed façades.
