Highlights
This tour takes us to the depths of the interior of Portugal showing us the essence of the Alentejo region. We will start by visiting the cork factory to learn about the tree that give us the cork and the production process with its innumerous applications. After that we are going to the medieval town of Évora in search of the petrifying Chapel of Bones, which is part of the Gothic church of San Francisco. Later we will have the opportunity to see one of the buildings that survived the passage of time from the legacy left by the Romans and we will take a short stroll through the historic squares of the city. For lunch we go to a traditional restaurant in the town and prepare you for the wine tasting! (Wine tasting is optional if you are in the mood for it) Duration: Between 7 and 8 hours

About Lisbon
Lisbon spills down its hills to the Tagus estuary, a city of tiled façades, rattling yellow trams, viewpoint terraces and late, unhurried dinners.
The old quarters hold most of the charm. Alfama's tangle of lanes climbs to São Jorge Castle and echoes with fado in the evening, the Baixa's orderly grid runs down to the vast Praça do Comércio on the river, and Bairro Alto and Chiado mix bookshops and cafés by day with bars by night. Viewpoints such as Santa Luzia and Senhora do Monte frame red rooftops and shining water.
Top-ranked sights in Lisbon: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
