Évora - Estremoz - Évora
This
tour departs from Lisboa. A visit to Estremoz is well worth
it if you are interested in erudite and popular traditional
architecture based on marble, and the history links it to
the political and amorous life of the first kings of Portugal,
in which the serene Queen Saint Isabel had a relevant role.
The lower part of the towns hosts an annual Alentejo crafts
fair, and in the higher part of the town you will find spectacular
and imposing monuments. The Ducal Palace is the next place
of interest to visit, riding through quarries and vineyards
to get there. This area has a long tradition of red clay
handcrafts with many workshops producing a variety of goods,
from big jars for storing wine and olive oil, to plates
and table sets, and, of course, decorative objects.
Price includes 3 days bike rental,
2 picnics, 2 dinners, 2 nights accommodation with breakfast,
guide, daily itinerary details, back-up vehicle and transfer
to and from Lisboa.
