Évora Day Trip from Lisbon: Private Tour with Chapel of Bones

Évora holds three ages inside one walled city: a stone circle raised some 2,000 years before Stonehenge, one of Iberia's best preserved Roman temples, and a UNESCO listed medieval centre. The catch: the best of it sits outside the walls, on a rutted dirt track with no public transport. This private tour solves the access and the context. Start at the Almendres Cromlech, 95 standing stones among cork oaks. In Évora, step inside the Chapel of Bones, lined with around 5,000 skulls, then see the Roman Temple, built for the cult of Augustus, not Diana, with 14 of its 18 columns still standing. Walk from Giraldo Square to the marble cathedral, with time for lunch on your own. Then choose your depth: keep it to the city and the megaliths, add a guided visit and wine tasting at Adega Cartuxa, or drive on to Monsaraz, a medieval hilltop village above Europe's largest artificial lake. Lisbon hotel, port or airport pickup included, plus entry tickets to the Chapel of Bones and the cathedral.

Private Tour of the History of Évora

The city of Évora has a historical center of the best preserved and rich in monuments of Portugal and that deserves the epithet of City-Museum. In 1986, the historic center of the city was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The Bone Chapel, the Church of San Francisco and the Roman Temple are some of the top monuments to visit in Évora. Still in Évora and following the Megalithic Circuit of the Alentejo, you can find the Cromeleque of the Almendres. Consisting of two separate premises, built between the end of the 6th and the 3rd millennium.C., this cromeleque is one of the largest and most important megalithic monuments in the world. At its height, the architectural ensemble would have more than a hundred monoliths, granite stones of various sizes, arranged in circular or elliptical shape. Of this hundred, there are still 95 monoliths in perfect state of conservation. This is our proposal for an amazing tour. But if the customer has any preference, we can try to adjust the itinerary.
