Évora and Alentejo Wine Region Day Trip
Delve into the rich history of Évora, one of the oldest cities in Europe on a full-day trip from Lisbon. Next, visit Herdade do Esporão, one of the most famous wineries in the Alentejo wine region.
Itinerary
Board a comfortable air-conditioned coach in the city center and relax on a short journey to Alentejo. Marvel at the picturesque plains full of vineyards, olive trees and cork oaks until you get to your destination. The Museum-City of Évora was listed a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Once in Évora, follow your professional English-speaking guide and discover the town’s magical historic center. You will visit its main landmarks like the Roman Temple of Évora, the Capela de Ossos (Chapel of Bones in English), the University of Évora and the impressive twelfth century Cathedral.
After the guided tour, you will have time to eat at your own leisure, enjoy a coffee or wander down the main streets of Évora.
In the afternoon, hop back on the coach and head to the municipality Reguengos de Monsaraz to visit Herdade do Esporão, one of the most famous wineries in Portugal. After exploring the ins and outs of the tourist attraction and learning about the winemaking process, you will enjoy a wine tasting.
You will be back in Lisbon city center at 7pm.
