This tour takes us to the depths of the interior of Portugal showing us the essence of the Alentejo region. We will start by visiting the cork factory to learn about the tree that give us the cork and the production process with its innumerous applications. After that we are going to the medieval town of Évora in search of the petrifying Chapel of Bones, which is part of the Gothic church of San Francisco. Later we will have the opportunity to see one of the buildings that survived the passage of time from the legacy left by the Romans and we will take a short stroll through the historic squares of the city.
For lunch we go to a traditional restaurant in the town and prepare you for the wine tasting!
