Pick up in Évora

Estremoz

In Estremoz we make a visit to the castle that governs the city from the highest point, and has a shining marble tower from the 14th century. At this altitude, you will find breathtaking views over the golden plains of the Alentejo in almost every direction. We also make a stop at a wine estate with wine tasting and the possibility of lunch.

Elvas

In Elvas we will visit the Fort of Nossa Senhora da Graça, also known as Fort Conde de Lippe, built in a dominant position on Monte da Graça, composed of three bodies: a central core, the main body and an external structure, this has always been a place of great strategic importance.

Vila Vicosa

On the way back to Évora, we will pass through Vila Viçosa where we find the Casa de Bragança, an important noble family founded in the 15th century, which became the Casa Regnante, when on December 1, 1640, the eighth Duke of Bragança was acclaimed King of Portugal (D. João IV). The main façade is completely covered with marble from the region and is inspired by Italian Renaissance architecture.

This was a wonderful day with an amazing guide. Patricia is very knowledgable, kind and personable. She made the experience fantastic and I cannot recommend the tour more highly as a way to see the beautiful Alentejo region. We stopped for lunch at a lovely restaurant specializing in Alentejo cuisine. My Portuguese is extremely limited, but Patricia's English is perfect and she was a great liaison.

Vikki_B

Patricia exceeded our expectations. She's knowledgeable in history not only of the sites but Portugal, attuned to clients needs and an all around a delight. We learned and so much with tours of defensive Elvas and unforgettable Monsaraz. Very highly recommend!!
