What you can expect
Discover the heart of the Alentejo in a unique olive oil tourism and tasting experience, lasting approximately 3 hours. Start the day by leaving from your meeting point: if you're not in Évora, we'll provide an Expresso ticket so you can comfortably reach the city. In Évora, an exclusive transfer will be waiting for you, taking you from the meeting point to the olive groves and bringing you back at the end of the tour.
When you arrive at the olive groves, you'll be greeted by our local guide, who'll share fascinating stories about the tradition of olive growing in the Alentejo, harvesting techniques, and the importance of olive oil in the regional cuisine and culture. During the tour of the fields, you can enjoy the stunning scenery, smell the aroma of the olive trees, and learn about the different types of olives and artisanal olive oil production methods.
The experience includes a guided tour of the olive oil production unit, where you can observe every step of the process, from harvesting to oil extraction. The guide explains how each detail influences the taste, quality, and characteristics of the final product.
Then, enjoy an exclusive tasting of local olive oils, accompanied by artisanal breads and regional products, allowing you to appreciate the diversity of aromas and flavors that make Alentejo olive oil so special. During the tasting, the guide will give you tips on pairing with food, making the experience educational and sensory.
To make the tour even more memorable, there will be time for photos, taking in the scenery, and interacting with local producers. At the end of the 3 hours, the transfer takes you back to Évora, or directly to the starting point if you've come from another city, ensuring comfort and convenience for all participants.
This experience is perfect for those who want to combine culture, gastronomy, and nature, providing a 3-hour tour in Alentejo that will stay in your memory. It includes local transportation, a professional guide, and a tasting of artisanal olive oils, making it ideal for food lovers, wine enthusiasts, and tourists looking for an authentic and enriching experience in the interior of Portugal.
