5 Star Alentejo Vineyards Tour Reviews — 1 to 4 of 4

I would like to say a huge thank you for finding the TripSite website to organize our trip.

Everything happened very precisely, from arrival, where our flight was delayed by 04 hours and even so the transfer was waiting for us.

The bike we chose came brand new and without any problems during the entire 310KM journey in 05 days, it was possible to enjoy everything without any problems with the bikes.

The transport of luggage from one hotel to the other left us free for our adventure and was very safe, our luggage was very well taken care of.

I read some reports of problems with the routes, but for us the routes were perfect, we used both the software indicated by TripSite and we also downloaded the routes in Briton, so it was very safe and when the software lost the signal we used Briton to take us to the destinations.

Well, talking about Alentejo is very easy, we love the trails, side roads, very wooded, with pastures of sheep, cows and other animals. We also noticed on these roads the countless vines, olive trees and many flowers coloring our journey.

Stopping in small villages little explored by tourists was what stood out for us, getting to know the Portuguese essence, eating in small canteens and enjoying the bread from the bakeries left us enchanted with the hospitality and security found.

Talking about the immersion in the past that this trip has given us is really enchanting; first starting with the accommodation, each place sent us back to a past and a life very different from ours, then the tourist spots with castles, walls, large and small churches was simply enchanting. It was certainly an experience that was marked and we plan to repeat it once a year.

This was a wonderful cycle tour through rural areas and medieval cities of Alentejo! For us one of the best spots was the city of Evora! And if you like wines this is the right region!

The layers of history in a Unesco World Heritage site spanning Neolithic megaliths, Roman temples, Moorish sites, and Christian Cathedrals provides a fascinating backdrop to this tour. The added luxury of staying in 12th - 16th century restored hotels with beautiful grounds really made the tour special. And of course peddling through the vineyards, cork groves, marble sites, makes for a truly unique experience. Sampling the local wines and food provides many unique memories.

We had a fantastic trip with some of the best vistas and sites. Roads were quiet one your got off the cobble stone and marble streets of the towns. Hotels were exceptional and a great part of the trip.
The hills are longer than we had expected but it was not a problem. Error on the side of using electric if in doubt
All around great trip with new GPS and Kickstands.
