Sometimes the magic of an adventure isn’t in how much you see and do, but how deeply you connect to a place and it’s people.
It’s slowing down to really get to know a place, to relax into a way of life different than your own, to experience different parts of local life… an organic farm, a winery built from ruins, history held in churches, walls, and stone. It’s having the time to get to know the people where you staying, and it’s getting a glimpse of their life and to learn from their stories. It’s shared meals around the table, long walks and rides together, relaxing by a pool getting to know the other women you are traveling with.
We fell in love with our time in the Alentejo region of Portugal so much, and were so sad to leave, that we decided to build a trip where we didn’t have to leave! We plan to arrive in Lisbon - spend a day exploring the city on an e-bike tapas tour and then head to the country. Once there, we will unpack our bags, and use the farm as our adventure basecamp.
You will get to know Teresa the amazing owner of not only the farm where we stay, but the adventure operation that we partner with. You will meet Dina who makes sure that every experience at the farm is above and beyond, and whose warmth and kindness brings joy to everyone she meets.
We explore the area by foot and by e-bike visiting locally women-run farms and wineries, cooking classes, and history tours - every day has an experience led by a local guide. We have also built in time to relax at the farm, spend the afternoons hanging by the pool, and even a day at a roman spa.
This is a trip for someone who wants an adventure that has a perfect balance of activity and relaxation creating a vacation that will leave your heart full and your body rejuvenated!
