Centuries-old cork oaks, wild, savannah-like plains, endless beaches, and towns perched on fortified hills—the Alentejo is a pristine region in southern Portugal, between the Algarve and Lisbon. An ideal destination for unwinding in the heart of unspoiled nature.
In this edition, we invite you to discover the Alentejo region through the eyes of seven fascinating local figures: architect Manuel Aires Mateus, the manager of a traditional weaving workshop, the founder of a timeless hotel lost in the vineyards, a community leader, an olive oil producer, a chef, and a baker. Discover their portraits and all their secret addresses from Lisbon to Évora, via Comporta and Beja.
Exceptional local products, delicious restaurants, traditional crafts, wild landscapes and natural treasures, experience the places your friends from all over the world might have told you.
Find 145 pages of interviews and addresses as well as a detachable illustrated map that will accompany you everywhere to experience a week like a local.
A book and travel guide dedicated to traveling differently and promoting local and independent economies.
