Overview

Know about stories about hate and love, courage and skill, friendship and family. Tales about our city that made it as it is today. Curiosities of the ancient everyday life, that became a tradition. Legends that became real. Stories about the most common mortals to the most important personalities in Portuguese history. Évora has been one of the most important cities of Portugal, coveted by other nations. We will unveil the most interesting mysteries that are not told in a typical Évora city tour. Let’s walk the streets while we capture the city’s beauty. We’ll stop at some places to tell you what happened there, or what connection that site has with the story that we want you to know. We may or may not enter the most well-known monuments; we do not have a scripted tour. We want you to enjoy the city while you get to know it in a more profound way. This is a unique, relaxed and unforgettable way to visit Évora, the city where the stones breed history.

5 Star Walking Tour of Évora

Published on Nov, 2024

João's tour exceeded our expectations! He is a great storyteller, extremely knowledgeable about the history of Evorá and Portugal, and was able to answer any and all questions asked. Our highlights were some of his 'secret spots' he took us to, that we never would have known about. He gave excellent dining recommendations, which we tried and loved. Thank you João, for sharing your passion for this wonderful city!

Great tour to get a thorough understanding of the key points in Evora's history.

Published on Oct, 2024

This was a fantastic tour. Joao had a seemingly unlimited supply of stories, both historical and folklore. Instead of racing down streets, pointing out buildings with random facts, we stopped for a few minutes and listened to a well-planned backstory with references that tied different stops together. Then we'd move to another spot where we'd again pause for a bit to fully understand how a site fit into the bigger story. In our opinion, this is much better than some walking tours that try to check off every single monument/building and leave you with a bunch of disjointed facts you'll never remember. We definitely recommend this tour.

Very informative and...

Elze was very knowledgable about the history of Evora and keeps everybody interested in her story. We got a great overview of the city that helped us tour is in the next day.

Fabulous tour with Joao!

Published on May, 2024

We took this walking tour on our first afternoon in Evora and were lucky to get Joao as our guide! We spent the next several hours learning about Evora, its sites and history and listening to its stories from our knowledgeable guide. Joao was a wealth of information and his love for this city was evident. We strolled like friends throughout the city taking in many of the major sites. I especially liked some of the off the beaten path stops that we made such as the theater, roman wall, the library, the family owned school uniform shop and the pastry shop where we enjoyed a sweet cheese tart (dare I say better than a pastel de nota?!). Joao spent extra time with us and we thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. We did another tour the next day with this company and would highly recommend Backcountry Evora tourism tours!
