Walking tour in Alentejo, the "Tuscany" of Portugal - guest reviews

" Once again, we have taken part in one of the hiking trips organized by Intura Travel, and once again we have been completely satisfied with their offering. This time we went walking in the Alentejo region of Portugal. I believe that spring is the best time to explore that area, as it is full of flowers everywhere. The landscapes are gentle, and the trails are easy to walk. The accommodations were good, especially the Convento de São Paulo de Ossa—very comfortable, full of history, and with a delicious dinner. Transportation also worked perfectly, and the logistical support from the Intura staff in Portugal was outstanding. In short, if you want to enjoy peaceful walks among flowers and stay in picturesque villages rich in history, this is an excellent option. And of course, a couple of nights in Lisbon, wandering through its intricate streets and enjoying an evening of fado music, make a perfect ending to this trip. "

" We are a group of friends from Finland who love to walk in the sunny landscapes of southern Europe when it is dark and cold here in the north. Most of us are already in their seventies and we appreciate easy paths, comfortable hotels and good food. Intura has offered us all this and much more in the five self-guided trekkings that we have done from their program in recent years: Luberon, Madeira, Dordogne, Bourgogne and recently Alpes Maritimes. On all these trips we have enjoyed the perfect organisation of transporting us, the transfer of our luggage, the booking of accommodation and restaurants, and Nadia has always been ready to help in any difficulty encountered. We warmly recommend this company to anybody, who would like to enjoy marvellous walking trips in France whithout any logistics problems."

Alentejo is a region where space and time seem more generous. The depth and light of the landscapes, the centuries-old cork oak forests and the numerous megalithic sites give this region an everlasting character. You feel far away from the general hubbub of civilization. It is a unique region; fewer humans means lots of space for nature and biodiversity and you will see many birds and countless butterflies.
Tourism in Alentejo is also sporadic so you will have that pleasant feeling of having the place more or less to yourself.
