To the east of Lisbon and north of the Algarve, beautiful Alentejo is a land of rolling hills, endless vineyards, olive groves and almond trees, home to everything from grand cathedrals to ancient aqueducts 🇵🇹

And, with quiet roads and plenty of space, it’s a joy to explore. The food is rustic and delicious – generous portions of bread and olives, hearty stews and cured meats – and the wine is excellent and inexpensive. Furthermore, it’s blessed with some truly outstanding accommodation.

Wexas expert Meriel Lowe was fortunate enough to experience the best of this spectacular region of Portugal on a recent trip – which you can read about here: wexas.com/travel-article/trip-report-alentejo

While some holidays are all about exploring spectacular landscapes, visiting historic landmarks or enjoying delectable cuisine, there's a lot to be said for a trip that places music at the centre of the action.

Indeed, in certain destinations, there's arguably no better way to immerse yourself in the local culture than by attending a live performance or two – whether it be tango on the streets of Buenos Aires or opera in a Roman amphitheatre in Verona.

From watching Andrea Bocelli perform in his hometown in Tuscany to immersing yourself in the rich traditions of blues, jazz and country music on a road trip through the USA's Deep South, our tailor-made musical escapes cover a wide-ranging mix of unforgettable experiences.

There's also the chance to see the famous filming locations from The Sound of Music in Salzburg in the 60th anniversary year of the Oscar-winning musical hit.
