About this activity
During your Ballooning Experience you will see that Alentejo Monsaraz is as diverse as its incomparable beauty. To the north the landscape is marked by the green of fertile fields than further south the landscape merges with the heat of the sun, the golden cornfields and the shade of the oaks and olive trees. Travel according to the wind’s whim. The charm of the schist walls and streets of the medieval villages of Monsaraz, the fullness of the Alqueva dam’s waters. Alentejo will fall for this region on every corner.
