Hard to identify what we liked best about this tour as we loved just about every aspect of the day spent with the incomparable Diogo, the tour operator. His communication skills, personal warmth, encyclopedic knowledge of Portuguese history and culture provided us with an experience that was unrivaled anywhere. We went to the Megalithic sites outside Evora first and spent a considerable amount of time exploring all three. We never felt rushed and it was such a rich experience to be with someone who possesses great love and pride for his country as well as a reverence for what came before us. We explored Evora walking around this charming city and enjoying lunch at a local and truly authentic restaurant. We have been on many tours but this tour of Evora and the ancient sites was unrivaled. It was the only tour that combined a visit to the city and the exploration of the Megalithic sites. There is no better guide than Diogo. He is a naturalist and a historian wrapped into one. We cannot recommend him more enthusiastically!

Our guide Diogo was incredibly knowledge and passionate about Portugal. We felt very fortunate to have such a wonderful guide. The bone chapel, although a short visit, is a must see. The various megalithic sites are very interesting in their history, and you can literally place your hand on a stone placed there almost 8000 years ago. The stork nests on the way to Evora are an added treat to see. We ate at a wonderful restaurant, and even had time to visit the Christ the King statue on our way back! It’s a great tour of discovery!

Diogo was great! I booked this trip because my husband wanted to see the stone circle so I booked this as the best timing and convenience and I am so glad I did! The sites were beautiful and Diogo was not only super knowledgable but very friendly and personable. By the end of the tour it felt like we were spending the day with a friend. I have already recommended this tour and this group to several people who are planning trips to Portugal soon. Obrigada!

We had a fabulous day viewing the megaliths and exploring historic Evora with Diogo. His knowledge of the sites, the Alentejo area, and complex Portuguese history in general is exceptional. We learned so much on this tour due to Diogo's ability to explain, answer our questions, and make the information interesting. Our conversations were wide ranging and enjoyable.The sites on this tour are amazing! It was a pleasure to spend the day with Diogo.

Fascinating and educational - beautiful views, so much culture and history!
