Itinerary
Meet your guide at your centrally situated Lisbon hotel in the morning and travel south in an air-conditioned car for your wine tour. Learn about the Alentejo region’s viticultural excellence as you cruise towards it. Hear about the breadth of this region, which stretches from southern Portugal’s Algarve all the way to the border with Spain.
At the first winery, you may sample a selection of red and white wines while also enjoying delectable local items such as cheese, chouriço (smoked pork sausage), smoked ham, and bread. Following that, you will have a leisurely buffet lunch (included) at either the first or second winery, depending on the size of the group. During your time in Alentejo, you’ll learn about the historical significance of winemaking and how this region has earned such a stellar reputation for producing full-bodied reds.
After that, take a tour through the meticulously managed vineyard and listen to your guide describe how the climate affects the different varieties of grapes. After getting to know the varietals, it’s time to sample them. So pour yourself a glass and enjoy the fruity flavors and complex bodies that await you. After your tasting, get back into your vehicle and enjoy the beautiful scenery on your way back to Lisbon. In the afternoon, you can return to one of two strategically placed drop-off locations: Marquês de Pombal or Rossio.
