Overview

This tour takes you away from the busy areas of Lisbon and Sintra, still so close and you feel like you are in the middle of a totally different area of Portugal! It will show you a lost Portugal, areas that today are coming back to life because of Tourism but still maintaining their own identity! You will see how the local people used to live and in some cases, still do live and you will learn about our culture and ways of life!! It is amazing how so close to big busy centers we have communities like these and it is a communion between the old and the very old since we can visit one or two monuments which are from our Neolithic period, almost 5000 years ago!!

Itinerary

  1. Salinas de Rio Maior

    This is a real and rare treat for you - these are the uniques salines in Portugal which are not located near the sea or a river... They are located in Rio Maior which is half-hour from Lisbon and right in the middle of a rural area. Due to its limestone rocks, this phenomenon happens right at our doorstep and you able to take home with you some of the purest salt we have!! You have to see it to believe it... and there is another very nice thing to see there as well, something we inherit from the Arabs - Wooden Locks!!

    · 1 h
  2. Dolmen of Alcobertas

    So, here we have a monument from our Neolithic Period which has been adopted into a chapel - already amazing on its own but then you have legends associated with this place and it becomes even more special! This is one of those cases where you really need to see it to make sense... Unique!
