Private day tour from Lisbon

Private Évora & Alentejo Tour

Cork forests, a Roman temple, the Chapel of Bones and some of the best food in Portugal. About 8 hours, door to door, from €350.

Your day

The Alentejo is the Portugal of slow living: golden plains, cork trees and long lunches. Évora, its capital, is a whole UNESCO city waiting to be explored.

The cork forest

On the way, we visit a local cork factory. You’ll see how cork is harvested by hand from the trees, without cutting them, and why Portugal produces half of the world’s cork.

Évora

In Évora we walk through the old town to the Roman Temple, the Gothic Cathedral and the Chapel of Bones, a chapel lined with human bones that makes everyone stop and think.

A taste of the Alentejo

Lunch is the best part of the day. I’ll take you to a traditional restaurant for Alentejo dishes like açorda and black pork, with a glass of the local wine. Then I drive you back to your door.

“We, a senior couple, took a day tour to Evora. It was amazing. We could not have seen as much if we travelled ourselves. Do yourself a favor and travel with Lelia.”
