Évora & Monsaraz Day Trip
Explore the Alentejo Wine Region
We'll meet at Praça Marquês de Pombal at the designated time before leaving Lisbon behind for the Alentejo wine region.
We'll pass through plains of vineyards, olive trees and cork oaks to reach our first stop, a city declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Welcome to Évora!
With the introductions done, we'll start a walking tour of Évora - one of the best-preserved medieval cities in Portugal. The cathedral, the Roman Temple, the Chapel of the Bones... Strolling through its streets, we'll see the most important town's most significant landmarks while learning about its fascinating history.
After our tour, we'll leave 1 hour of free time to grab lunch in a local restaurant or simply relax as you wish!
Our second stop will be at Monsaraz, one of the oldest villages in Portugal, built inside the walls of a castle. There, you'll enjoy the view of one of the largest artificial lakes in Europe, the Alqueva, where we'll enjoy plenty of photo opportunities! You'll also have the chance to do an optional tasting of the five most prestigious wines of the Alentejo.
Finally, we'll arrive back in Lisbon after a total of 8 hours of adventure.
