Beautiful town of Estremoz
Very enjoyable walking tour of estremoz . We started at the Pousada where we were staying and our guide Joao arranged for both the church and the chapel to be opened for us to see. He explained about the 3 dynasties that were involved in the history of Estremoz. He also told us of the specialties and crafts local to the area and showed us beautiful architecture. We finished the tour at the market place and as it was Saturday morning there was a bustling market in action.

Enjoying Estremoz with Joao
We visited Estremoz with Joao. It has been a very pleasant and interesting walk. If not for him we would have left a lot of unvisited corners and history to know. Joao makes everything very enjoyable. We totally recommend to understand and enjoy the city.

3 hours of strolling through Estremoz
We always enjoy a walking tour to discover new places. Estremoz has a rich history and we would have liked to hear all the stories. This walking tour was more of a stroll and the stories were told in such an exaggerated way that this was fun at first but eventually started to get really annoying. Journey took a long time. The guide did not keep to agreed times, so upon arrival at Castelo de Estremoz, 3 people dropped out because they had other appointments. Too bad because this was so interesting.
You get a lot of information about Estremoz, which is very nice, although the stories told by the guide contradict each other. We didn't ask further because that would still be on the way.
Operator response
Beste Marike, allereerst zijn we zeer vereerd dat jullie samen met ons de stad Estremoz hebben ontdekt.
Wat de lengte van de tour betreft, is het onmogelijk om een wandeltocht te maken met stops voor foto's, praten over monumenten, geschiedenis en interacties met toeristen met haast, niet alle mensen hebben hetzelfde tempo. Er wordt aangekondigd dat de tour maximaal drie uur zal duren. Dat was wat we je gaven, een drie uur durende wandeling. Uw feedback over de overdrijving en tegenstrijdigheid in de gidsen zal intern worden besproken. Met vriendelijke groet, Het Rota do Mármore AE-team 🌍🗺🇵🇹🌟

A tour around a beautiful city of marble.
The tour guide took us around the new town and finished in the old town. I got an insight into the history of the city, its origins and the importance of Queen Isabella to its people. The highlight was a visit to a chapel at the castle which is usually closed to the public.

Amazing.
Despite not having a beautiful sun or even heat, the visit was incredible. We strolled through the chapels, monuments, views and even managed to visit the city's flea market. I highly recommend it, thank you for all the care and attention from the tour guide and the association.

In a few years, Estremoz will very well be a top destination in Portugal. Right now with its booming restaurants in amazing architecture and friendly people.
