What To Expect

Corktrekking

Adventure yourself on an off-road journey through the Alentejo's "montado" (cork oak forest)! We offer you an option of driving tour, that will give you a wonderful overview of the forest as you plough through the dirt tracks of the farm. For those who have a passion for vintage cars, or simply a sense of history and adventure, you can opt for a tour in one of two 50-year-old Land Rovers, one an open top and the other a hard top. Your expert guides will stop at regular intervals to show you the highlights and explain in detail what makes the cork forest such an important and diverse ecosystem. Our guides, are guaranteed to enlighten (and entertain!) you at how little you knew about cork and its amazing properties!

Bad Tour Program - Cork Safari

The entire program is a disappointment even though the guide Daniel was engaging. We went on the Classical Land Rover tour on 31st May 2025. The weather was great but the tour lacks depth in terms of an immersive experience. There is no opportunity to use the cork axe, no opportunity to see different cork trees in different maturing stage. While it may be difficult to witness the actual harvest, no attempt was made to show a customised video of how cork is harvested and process in the past and how differently it is done today. The existing tour is actually a waste of precious time in your travel vacation. All the information that was shared could easily be obtained online, what is needed is an immersive experience which is not there in this tour.
Super interesting!

The tour was on a beautiful estate. We enjoyed learning about Portugal cork farming . Our guide did an excellent job explaining about the history and details of Cork farming. Would highly recommend!

The meetup location is a winery. Inside you can see where the wines are bottled and barrels are stored. What you're really paying for is a journey by aged Land Rover into a nearby cork farm with your guide. You get to learn about the cork trees, how they are "harvested", and the various inter-related activities on the farm, such as how Iberian pigs are raised, that all work together to create a thriving ecosystem. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The pace is fairly relaxed. You're just going along for the ride and getting out in a couple of places to look more closely at things. On subsequent days, we could recognize the difference between Cork and Holm Oak trees and identify virgin cork and in some places how long it was the trees were last harvested. It added another dimension to our trip. Finally, we opted for the lunch at a local restaurant afterwards. The restaurant had nice decor and the food was decent but didn't knock my socks off.

Celino made our cork trekking experience so worthwhile. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and enjoyable. We learned a lot about cork trees, their harvest, their environmental importance, and the integration of agricultural symbiosis as it relates to farming in Portugal. We would definitely recommend this tour and Celino!

Many thanks to Chantal for the fun and informative tour! She explained everything to us in detail and it was no problem with our little dog. The old Land Rover was the icing on the cake. We can fully recommend the tour, and the food in the restaurant was also delicious for our taste. :-)

We did on Friday 05/2024 the Cork safari with the 4x4 cars. It was an amazing and learningfull experience. Our children an grandchildren loved it 👍👍👍 The Owners of the property are very sympathetic and friendly. What made the trip even more special - beside the amazing nature and landscape views - was our Portugese guide Celino. He gave a really inspiring and interactive explanation on how the Cork is harvested and what products can be made of it … He also gave a very educational view on the history and also gave a lot of extra answers on all our questions. Celina made the trip a real top event, so we can absolutely recommend it to all people that visit the region. Marc Vanwalleghem (Belgium)
