Spend the afternoon in Monsaraz and its castle towering on the hill, from where you can watch the great and beautiful Alqueva lake. Discover the region’s landscape, humanized for thousands of years, walk through centuries-old olive groves and visit megalithic monuments. A perfect way to get to know the cultural identity of the Alentejo.
Discover the various cultures that have passed through the city of Évora through the ages, participating in a 2-hour guided tour of the city's streets and its most iconic monuments, such as its Cathedral, the Roman Temple, Giraldo Square and the Chapel of the Bones. In the company of our local historian, Luís Faria, uncover some of the secrets, curiosities and even new studies that make up this UNESCO World Heritage City.
Let yourself be taken on a guided tour of the medieval village of Monsaraz, where our historian will let you know the heritage left by the various communities that have lived here through their symbolism. In addition to the Castle and the Parish Church, the visit also includes the Fresco Museum and the House of Inquisition. From the top of the fortification, you will see the great lake Alqueva and discover the secrets of the frontier lands, with Spain lurking on the horizon.
