WHY THE ALENTEJO GOLDEN PLAINS?

The rolling hills and lush valleys of the Alentejo's Golden Plains region are a traveler's delight. The people who call this region of Portugal home live life at a slower pace, and it is easy for tourists to feel at home in such a warm and relaxing environment. First inhabited during the Iron Age, the Romans and Moors left their distinct footprints on this area before it fell under Portuguese control in the 13th century. The towns of the Golden Plains all have their own distinct charm. Ranging from modern commercial and industrial centers to sleepy hamlets, the towns of Alvito, Beja, Moura, Pias, Portel and Serpa offer more than just history -- they offer hospitality and lots of heart.

The Alentejo`s Medieval Past (Self Drive)

7 nights from $1,000*

The often bypassed Alentejo region is a wide open gem. With its rich medieval history, castles, cathedrals, national parks, vast lakes, open plains, and delicious wines it is hard to understand why. The capital city Evora is home to one of the country`s oldest universities, as well as charming cobbled streets, stunning countryside, and the gorgeous cathedral. The Alentejo North East area (a medieval Portuguese stronghold in the land wars with Spain is rife with castles, walled in old towns, and quaint public squares) and the relaxing Alentejo Golden Plains (known for its wide open expanses, wine production, and historic settlements) complete your stay.
