Èvora and Monsaraz
We had a fantastic private day tour with IGO on our visit to Lisbon. Our group of seven friends thoroughly enjoyed the journey to Évora and Monsaraz. Pedro A. was an outstanding guide, providing punctual pickup, safe driving, and a very comfortable car. He shared just the right amount of history about Portugal and the Iberian Peninsula, while keeping things engaging. We especially loved seeing the largest man made lake in Europe and enjoying an excellent lunch at Taverna Os Templários, a hidden gem we would never have found alone. Highly recommended, we would book again without hesitation in future.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review on TripAdvisor! 💛 We’re truly grateful you took the time to share your experience with us. Knowing that you had such a lovely time means the world to our team, and your kind words genuinely made us smile. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we would absolutely love to welcome you back again soon!

Excellent Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz
We had an excellent private tour to Évora and Monsaraz. Our guide was highly knowledgeable about the Iberian Peninsula and Portugal’s rich history, which added real depth to the experience. He was punctual, attentive throughout the day, and made us feel completely at ease with his safe and professional driving. A highlight was his recommendation for lunch at Taverna Os Templários—an outstanding choice that we likely wouldn’t have discovered on our own. Overall, a well-organized and memorable tour that I would confidently recommend.

Why this scores 81
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz cost?
+
Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.
Is Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 143 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz?
+
Around 50 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Day Tour With Guide to Évora and Monsaraz start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lisbon?
+
On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, True 4Hour Private Tuk Tuk Tour: Discover Lisbon with a Local!. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lisbon?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lisbon?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
