Additional Information
Join us for an Exclusive Private Tour as we set off to explore the countryside, with stops in EVORA and MONSARAZ, which are located just 1h20m from Lisbon. The esteemed news source, USATODAY, has recognized Alentejo, the region containing our destinations, as the WORLD’S FINEST WINE REGION.
Throughout the journey, we will spend time in Evora, a site of significant historical importance in Portugal. This walled city has been a Unesco World Heritage Site since 1986 and is famous for its Roman Temple, the well-known Cathedral, and various points of interest within its Castle Walls. A visit to the village of Monsaraz, near the Alqueva, home to Europe’s largest man-made lake, is also on our itinerary. A traditional Portuguese restaurant will be our lunch stop. In 2017, CNN listed Monsaraz among Europe’s Top 20 hilltop villages. Furthermore, American National Geographic Magazine included Monsaraz in its list of 21 must-visit places globally!
During our excursion, guests will have the pleasure of enjoying the picturesque surroundings, gaining insights into cork production, and the opportunity to taste local wines.

Kudos to the Portugal-Majik Staff - Portugal Magik was very responsive and put together an amazing custom itenerary based on our group's dates, and requirements. We communicated with Anna, and Tilda who completely understood our desires and made recommendations. There is a very good reason they have 10 years of 5 star ratings on Trip Advisor!

Stellar Portugal Majik Tour - Beyond pleased with Portugal Magik. The tour masters were so knowledgeable and kind. We did a three day tour which included Tomar, Sintra, Cabo da Roca, Cascais, Fatima, Evora and Monsaraz. Amazing lunch spots with good conversation and cuisine was an additional highlight with Portugal Majik.

Great tour and wonderful guide! - Diogo with Portugal Magik was our wonderful guide for our private tour from Lisbon to Evora and Monsaraz. He is absolutely the best! Knowledgeable, charming, and extremely helpful in making things work for my husband who is facing hip surgery.
Diogo went out of his way to give us our best day in Portugal. Our lunch in Monsaraz was amazing and we loved our visit to very good family-owned winery. It could not have been better.

Fantastic - We had 5 days worth of tours in Portugal. We selected where we wanted to go and each day our driver arrived promptly at our hotel in his immaculate Mercedes.
I loved the personalization this gave us. We saw and learned things we would missed in a group tour. He took us to his favorite restaurants for lunch and we had a phenomenal experience at Conde D'Erivideira winery.
We never had to stand in line waiting for entrance into popular sites.
Our guide was very accommodating in every way and very knowledgeable about his country. He spoke perfect English.
I have traveled extensively but this private tour was priced nicely and worth every penny. In the future I will consider this option of doing a private tour again.

Fantastic private tour - We had the most wonderful day with Andy touring Evora, Monsaraz, and wineries. He picked us up in a clean, new Mercedes and gave us important information throughout the drive and tour. We were specifically interested in bringing home pottery and he drove us to a few out of the way pottery studios with beautiful selections.
We visited 2 wonderful wineries and met with the owners.
Lunch was up in the mountains in a fantastic quaint restaurant that we never would have found.
We lived our day , recommended Sintra Magik to several friends, and look forward to visiting Portugal and planning another day with Sintra Magik!

Great Private Tours - We did 2 private tours - Sintra and Mafra and then Evora and Monsaraz with wine tasting. The company was easy to work with. They kept us informed, picked us up in time in a very comfortable Mercedes van. Joao was a fantastic guide. The sites were great and the wine tasting was the best we have ever gone on.

The Best Private Tour Guides - I can't even begin to tell you how much this company deserves the high ratings it gets. Rui (Roy) our guide was just the most polite, knowledgeable and interesting guide we have ever had. He even ran back to a store to retrieve my cane, from a recent knee replacement, that I had left hanging on a shelf. From start to finish, completely professional, can not wait to return to Portugal, they will be my first reservation.
