Private Tour of the History of Évora
Overview
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.
