The Alentejo! Where the Portuguese culture is most alive and untouched. On this tour we will visit the heart of this rural Portuguese region. Here lies the museum like city of Évora and the pure medieval village of Monsaraz.
Jump into the core of Portuguese rural identity and let yourself be dazzled by this UNESCO world heritage city. From the Neolithic to the Roman empire, passing through the strong Arabic domination and the final settling of the Christians, this place is a true wide national history museum, home to some of the greatest Portuguese monuments like the Bone Chapel or the Roman temple of Diana.
We will also have the chance to wander through the medieval walled village of Monsaraz and enjoy the unique views to the biggest artificial lake in Europe and the border to Spain.
