Day trip to Evora and Almenderes
Our lady guide Elisabeth was very punctual, very nice and patient with us. Explained everything very well. We had an amazing day with her. Trip was excellent- the Megaliths, the Corktrees and the historic part of Evora were very impressive. Would recommend this trip always. Thanks Elisabeth for the very good and careful driving and the excellent lunch.

Escursione a Evora
È stato fantastico. Pedro è stato gentile e istruttivo e ha letto bene il tempo e il nostro gruppo. Mio marito era entusiasta di vedere le rovine romane.

Besuch bei evora und olivenölverkostung
Tolle Tour, sehr zu empfehlen! Wir haben herausgefunden, wie Korken geerntet wurde und wie viel davon verwendet wird. Wir haben auch Olivenbäume gesehen und später Oliven probiert. Alles war wie erwartet und der Führer sehr kompetent.
