We enjoyed our tour very much. Pedro was a great guide with his calm and kind nature. He picked us up in a minivan which made for a very comfortable ride. We never felt rushed and he tried to reduce the amount of stairs or inclines for my mom with some mobility issues. We would recommend this tour to others.

Dear Teresa,
Thank you so much for your kind words!
It was a real pleasure to guide you through Évora and Monsaraz. I'm especially glad to know your mother felt comfortable throughout the day — we always try to adapt the experience to our guests’ needs so everyone can enjoy the beauty of these incredible places at their own pace.
Your recommendation means a lot, and I hope to welcome you again on another journey through Portugal.
Pedro read your review and sends a warm hug!

Évora & Castle in Monsaraz are both incredible!
This day trip was wonderful! We enjoyed Evora so much (Chapel of Bones, Roman ruins, Cathedral & the charming streets), that we were initially upset that we had to leave for Monsaraz…..but once we got there, we couldn’t be happier! We had the best lunch of our vacation in the Castle, with an amazing view overlooking the lake and the beautiful landscape. There was a good amount of driving, but it was well worth it!

A tour guide with a wealth of knowledge of Portugal art and textiles.
Our driver and tour guide, Padro was fantastic. We enjoyed visiting Évora and Monsaraz but what was really a plus for me was Padro’s knowledge of tapestry and the rugs woven in Portugal. He was a wealth of knowledge and suggested place to see. I hope to return to Portugal and have him take us on a tour to the different cities known for their rug making history and the Tapestry Museum in Portalegre. I am afraid we didn’t have the time this trip.

Dear Susan,
Thank you very much for your kind and thoughtful feedback.
I’m especially pleased that the world of Portuguese tapestry and traditional weaving resonated with you — it’s a subject I truly enjoy sharing.
It would be a pleasure to welcome you back and explore those regions and the Portalegre Tapestry Museum in more depth.
Kind regards,
Pedro

cathedral to castle
Nativity museum at Evora a surprising highlight in a day of contrasts, seeing a Roman temple, Romanesque cathedral and a hilltop castle ruin with great views. Our driver/guide very informative and friendly. Recommended if you have an interest in history.

Definitely worth the trip !
Both Evora and Monsaraz were beautiful ! Our tour guide, Pedro, was very knowledgeable of the history. He was informative, professional and accommodative. The best part for private tours was that you can do it at your own pace, and have plenty of time to enjoy a relaxing lunch, unlike the time pressure in group tours.

Evora and Monsaraz Tour was great...
<p>Evora and Monsaraz Tour was great and a must. Pedro from Estrela d'Alva Tours was our Tour guide. Pedro was very hospitable and we felt more like a family friend taking us on a tour. The cathedrals, to the chapel of Bones and Monsaraz Castle taking us back in time was a great experience. Pedro was very accommodating giving us the space and time for all our needs and kept the tour at our pace but also ensuring we saw as much as possible. He is a very flexible tour guide who catered to all our needs and interests, creating individualized itineraries and making adjustments when needed based on our interest. He looks us to the ceramic pottery factory and gave us a tour of pot making and painting which was very interesting and a speciality of that area.</p>
