What you'll see and do
Monsaraz
Monsaraz, the graceful medieval village of Monsaraz, maintains the magic from ancient times like few others in the world. Made of lime and schist, this place whispers us, between the echo of our footsteps in its streets. A lot of magnificent stories could be told about its courageous kings, Knights Templar, brave people and dames of simple beauty. Suspended in time, the historic village, one of the oldest in Portugal, is a mandatory destination to add to your list of places to visit in Alentejo. Especially after, in 2017, it won the category “Monument Villages” in the competition 7 Maravilhas de Portugal – Aldeias (7 wonders of Portugal – Villages).

Mourao
Mourão is a lovely village situated in the vast Alentejo’s region, on the left bank of the wide Guadiana river, nearby the border with Spain, in a place of great natural beauty, where peace of mind is the rule. Mourão has always been marked by the Guadiana river, that has much contributed for the surrounding fertile soils where olive and almond trees grow, among other pleasant trees that characterize the lovely landscape. Mourão is proud of its monuments and traditions, like its Castle and the baroque Mother Church of Nossa Senhora das Candeias (17th and 18th centuries), and the many green areas around in the region, like the Mata de São Bento.

Evora
Evora is a delightful Portuguese town that was originally founded by the Romans, later fortified by the Moors and flourished during the 15th century. This extensive history has provided Evora with a variety of interesting tourist attractions and historical monuments. This guide will detail the main tourist sights and attractions of Evora.

Chapel of Bones
The Capela dos Ossos (Chapel of Bones) is a fascinating chapel with a very macabre atmosphere. Ranking as one of Evora’s most visited sites, this eerie tourist attraction is not for the faint hearted. This small, unassuming chapel is actually home to the final resting place of hundreds of bodies; all exhumed from the city’s graveyards in the 16th Century.

Monsaraz Castle and Walls
Monsaraz Castle is a unique touristic spot in Portugal. It is one of the most splendid places to look at the wonderful Alqueva Dam. This is the largest artificial lake in Europe and one of the greatest Portuguese constructions of the century. Slowly walk towards the village centre. At Largo D. Nuno Álvares Pereira (square), enter the stunning Igreja Matriz de Nossa Senhora da Lagoa (church). This religious monument was built with schist in the 16th century on the ruins of a gothic church, destroyed due to the black plague. Constructed in the Renaissance style, it has a beautiful pediment, decorated by a tile panel and an Order of Christ Cross. In the interior, carefully study the tomb of Gomes Martins Silvestre, a Knight Templar, first Alcaide (Mayor) of Monsaraz. This tomb is made of marble from Estremoz. It has seventeen sculpted figures on the front representing a funeral procession.

No bueno
I booked two tours with this Vaitor and both cancelled. One did contact me, gave me a heads up with an explination and did try to offer other solutions. This one I’m writing on cancelled last minute, did not contact me and did not give a reason. Viator customer service, although I did get a refund for both, weren’t helpful in rebooking me. I was left with last minute empty days and no way to fill them with tours as it was last minute and we were here for a very limited number of days.
Response from the operator: Dear Niki, We are very sorry about this. It was impossible for us to operate the tour because the guide called in sick, but we tried until the last minute to do it. We take our service very seriously and we hope you understand that sometimes things run out of our control. Best regards.

Exceptional views and experience!
This tour is a perfect day trip from Lisbon! The drive offers views of the countryside vineyards and cork harvest and the town of Evora provides Roman ruins, historic churches (the rooftop vistas are worth the stairs at the Cathedral of Evora), and the Chapel of Bones. Monsaraz is a MUST see and the wine tasting at Ervideira was the perfect pause. The castle provides unmatched views of the Alquava Lake and the quaint shops and restaurants made this tour my favorite day of our trip! Our guide, Hugo Oliveira, was knowledgeable, pleasant and well connected with the locals to ensure a *exceptional* experience! We took a second day-trip (Mafra/Ericeria) specifically with Hugo and enjoyed it equally as well!
Response from the operator: Hi, Thank you so much for your words. It was a privilege and a wonderful experience. Please come back to visit us. Regards.

Why this scores 51
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour Alentejo, Evora, Monsaraz, Mourão-Medieval Times Lunch&Wine Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Private Tour Alentejo, Evora, Monsaraz, Mourão-Medieval Times Lunch&Wine Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at $350 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 Tour Alentejo, Evora, Monsaraz, Mourão-Medieval Times Lunch&Wine Tasting 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 Tour Alentejo, Evora, Monsaraz, Mourão-Medieval Times Lunch&Wine Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 4 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 Tour Alentejo, Evora, Monsaraz, Mourão-Medieval Times Lunch&Wine Tasting?
+
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 Tour Alentejo, Evora, Monsaraz, Mourão-Medieval Times Lunch&Wine Tasting 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 Tour Alentejo, Evora, Monsaraz, Mourão-Medieval Times Lunch&Wine Tasting?
+
Around 1 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 Tour Alentejo, Evora, Monsaraz, Mourão-Medieval Times Lunch&Wine Tasting 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.
