An
adventure of fairytale proportion. In the spring, look
forward to a colorful array of wildflowers. In the fall, fields
come alive with grape harvesting for the vindimas festival. We like
to refer to Alentejo as The Tuscany of Portugal™,
suitable given the characteristic green & gold landscape that
surrenders itself to your Trek touring bicycle, mile after folkloric
mile, and for the romantic lifestyle that surrounds you in each
destination town, whitewashed and nestled against a backdrop of
tradition and hospitality. Each afternoon on this Alentejo
wine country bike tour, you'll explore a new village such
as Arraiolos and Èvora, cut from the storybooks with their
narrow cobblestone streets, and conclude several days with a wine
tasting at a local wineries. Later, after browsing the old quarter,
look forward to an evening feast on hearty Alentejan cuisine, delicious
wines and sweet pastries. The Alentejo has a way of making its guests
feel welcome. Expansive blue skies, and calming pace of life will
help remind you, day after sunny day.

"From the very start of this trip
you were fast and informative with regard to emails. Also,
even though we were coming to a business it felt like
we were going to see friends instead – I would recommend
this company to anyone looking for an amazing experience.
The views were breathtaking, the prices more than reasonable,
and the service top notch. I truly loved everything about
this tour (…) and you were so friendly, welcoming
and helpful. Thank you!!!"
