Nuno and Bernardo were wonderful to have as our tour guides for our day trip to Evora! They began educating us on the ride over and continued throughout each experience. We were able to decide when we wanted to visit the sites of the city center and we could spend as much time as we wanted at each location. They definitely went above and beyond! We highly recommend either of them.

A great tour. An excellent choice of different sites, from cromleques to the town of Évora, where you have the Roman temple of Diana to the Chapel of Bones, a delicious meal in the heart of Évora, finishing off at a cork factory. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable guides. Simply, a great day out. I strongly recommend if you are interested in the non typical sites, or just looking for something different.
