Fly into Lisbon and within 12km you will find the lovely Pousada de Queluz in front of the blue Queluz Palace. This is a great location too for exploring Lisbon from a quieter base with a direct train service into the city centre located a 10 minute walk away. The Pousada’s Cozinha Velha restaurant, with its large marble table and antique stone fireplace, provides a truly unique experience, and you can enjoy views of an orange grove from its terrace.
From here it’s north-east bound to the medieval castle-monastery of Crato that was once home to the Knights of the Order of Malta. The Pousada is situated in the rural village of Flor de Rosa, famed for its pottery and a 5 minute drive away from the town of Crato, and provides a relaxing stay.
Southward to Estremoz and you will be spending the night in a 14th century castle situated on a hill overlooking the town below. A site of many royal visits over the past 700 years, this Pousada offers a truly regal experience. From here you head to Vila Viçosa in the heart of the Alentejo region which is perfect for outdoor activities including hiking and birdwatching, for visiting the impressive Ducal Palace, or for exploring the nearby historic towns of Evora (for the Temple of Diana) and Borba.
Your final two nights are spent at Alcacer do Sal in a medieval Moorish castle in this ancient port town, famed for its role in the salt trade, where you can marvel at the interesting architecture or explore the nearby Estuário do Sado Nature Reserves and the lovely Atlantic.
From here it is a short drive to Lisbon airport for your return.
