Tour in Évora Monsaraz

Explore the heart of Portugal with Sulinvest’s exclusive Monsaraz and Evora tour. This unique experience, will take you through the enchanting landscapes of Alentejo, which is Portugal’s largest region and also known for its golden plains adorned with cork oaks, almonds, vineyards, and olive trees.

The journey begins with a comfortable pick-up from your hotel in one of Sulinvest’s signature electric vehicles. Our expert drivers, renowned for their knowledge and professionalism, ensure a smooth and enjoyable ride. We recommend an early start to avoid traffic and make the most of your day.

Our first stop is the medieval village of Monsaraz. Perched on a hill, this walled village offers a step back in time with its whitewashed houses and cobblestone streets. The breathtaking view over the Alqueva (Europe’s largest artificial lake) adds to the charm of Monsaraz.

Throughout the tour, we can recommend restaurants known to us, places where you can savor authentic Portuguese cuisine and experience the warm hospitality of the locals. However, please note that these establishments are not part of our commercial society, and we do not have any commercial agreement with them. We simply share these recommendations in the spirit of enhancing your travel experience.

Next, we head to Evora, a UNESCO World Heritage site, often referred to as the museum city. Its walled historic center and squares breathe history dating back over 2000 years. One of the city’s most intriguing attractions is the Bones Chapel, a 16th-century chapel adorned with human bones and skulls, offering a macabre yet fascinating insight into the city’s past.

On our return journey, we visit a cork factory, where you can witness the traditional process of cork harvesting, a significant industry in the Alentejo region. The tour concludes with a drive through the 25th of April suspension bridge, offering a spectacular view of Lisbon.
