Day 1 – Arrival at your glamping stay in nature

Immerse yourself in nature in the Alentejo region as you sleep in a glamping tent on the banks of a river, surrounded by nature. There are communal toilets and showers that you’ll share with the other campers, as well as a shared kitchen and BBQ area. Inside the tent, there’s a real bed for comfort. You’ll need to stop off at a supermarket enroute to buy supplies for the next few days, which can be stored in the kitchen.

Days 2-4 – Activity on the river with guide

Over the next two days we have some adventures planned for you with a different activity each day, both including a certified local guide. On the first day, prepare to embark on an exhilarating kayaking journey. Glide along the water’s surface, immersing yourself in the stunning natural surroundings. Let the rhythmic strokes of your paddle carry you through picturesque landscapes, as your guide unveils hidden gems and shares fascinating insights along the way.

The following day promises an entirely unique adventure. Leave the kayaks behind and step into shallower waters. Traverse the terrain, conquering obstacles, and relishing in the refreshing coolness of the water.

After these active days, you’ll have worked up an appetite, so you’ll get the barbecue going and cook up a feast. At the end of the day, you’ll fall asleep in your tent under the clear starry sky and enjoy the sound of cascading waterfalls and the gently flowing river.

Day 4 – Waking up with a view and departure

This morning, you will cook a final breakfast to enjoy at the water’s edge before continuing on your adventure further into the Alentejo region or move on to a explore another part of this fascinating country.
