This day starts with us picking you up from the place where you are staying, we will then head straight to Évora through the countryside roads of Alentejo, a beautiful sightseeing road journey.
Once we arrive in Évora, the must see place is St Francis Church and the famous chapel of the bones. This is a very enigmatic place in the city but a definite must see monument.
We will then head to the temple of Diana. Located at the top of the historical Évora, it is a roman temple from the 1st Century that is in an impressive state of conservation. It is one of a kind in Portugal and the city´s most famous landmark.
A wine tasting session is on the menu, followed by a well deserved lunch that will have you tasting the best of Alentejo cuisine.
After lunch we will head towards Monsaraz and the biggest manmade lake in Europe.
