Travel Itinerary

Climb the hill‑top fortress for sweeping vistas over the Alentejo plains and the Alqueva reservoir, a perfect spot for photos.

Meet local artisans, learn the centuries‑old techniques of Alentejo pottery, and try shaping your own piece.

Start a short, easy trail along the reservoir edge, enjoying reflections of the sky on the water and spotting local birdlife.

Relax with a picnic overlooking the expansive lake, savoring local cheese and bread while the water glistens.

Wander the medieval walls and courtyards, then visit the adjoining marble museum to learn why Estremoz is called the 'Marble City'.

End the day with a hearty Alentejo feast—slow‑cooked lamb, migas, and a glass of regional wine—in a welcoming tavern.
