Explore Lisbon, drive to historic Évora and finish in Monsaraz with fantastic views. A perfect road trip through the landscape of Alentejo!

Lisbon: City Pulse, History and Flavors

Start your journey in Lisbon, Portugal's vibrant capital where old meets new. Stroll through the historic districts of Alfama and Bairro Alto, take a ride on the iconic tram 28, and enjoy panoramic views from the city's many miradouros. Explore Belém, home to the Jerónimos Monastery and Belém Tower, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and don't miss a classic pastel de nata from the famous Pastéis de Belém.

After soaking up Lisbon's energy, it's time to leave the city behind. Pick up your rental car and head towards the Alentejo region, where tranquil landscapes of vineyards and olive groves await.

Évora: Culture and History in the Heart of Alentejo

After a car journey of about 1.5 hours, you reach Évora, a city with a rich history and stunning architecture. Here you can visit the impressive Roman temple, the magnificent Sé Cathedral, and the fascinating Capela dos Ossos, a chapel decorated with bones from thousands of monks.

Évora is also known for its gastronomy - enjoy local specialties such as black pudding, Iberian ham, and Alentejo wines at a traditional tavern.

After a day in this UNESCO-listed city, the journey continues through Alentejo's rolling landscape towards the last and most picturesque destination.

Monsaraz: A Medieval Gem Overlooking Alqueva

The last leg takes you on a 50-minute car journey from Évora to Monsaraz, one of Portugal's best-preserved medieval villages. Monsaraz is known for its whitewashed houses, narrow cobblestone streets, and outstanding views of Alqueva Lake, Europe's largest artificial lake.

Here you can explore Monsaraz Castle, wander through the charming town center, and enjoy a peaceful evening with Alentejo wines and local delicacies on a terrace with panoramic views. Monsaraz is a perfect end to this journey - a place where time seems to stand still and tranquility envelops you.
