Alentejo, its meaning comes from the lands that lie beyond (além) the Tagus (Tejo) river, that is, beyond the Tagus, the largest region in Portugal. The Alentejo is a region that must be discovered, with unique and unexplored landscapes, in addition to its monuments, crafts and rich gastronomy, from black pork to olive oil and wines, there is much to discover and enjoy. To help you enjoy it to the fullest and discover special places, we have guides and specialised partners to accompany you, so you can make the most of your time in Alentejo, where they say that ‘time passes very slowly’.

The Alentejo is a region near Lisbon (60 minutes away) where many people who live in the capital take refuge at weekends or during holidays to enjoy the landscapes, tranquillity, gastronomy, heritage and people.
