Evora, a UNESCO World Heritage city, offers remarkable historical attractions during your 2-hour visit. Don't miss the Roman Temple (Temple of Diana), the 13th-century Cathedral of Evora, the macabre Chapel of Bones lined with human remains, the historic University of Evora, and the well-preserved medieval city walls. Your driver will help you navigate efficiently to maximize your time.
Arraiolos is world-renowned for its handcrafted wool carpets, a tradition dating back to the Middle Ages. During your 90-minute visit, you'll see the impressive circular castle (one of only two round castles in Portugal), explore the carpet museum to learn about this cultural heritage, and browse shops selling authentic Arraiolos rugs, each representing hours of meticulous hand embroidery.
The drive from Sintra to Evora is approximately 2 hours, and from Evora to Arraiolos is about 30 minutes. Your private driver will take the most scenic routes, making the journey itself part of the experience as you travel through the beautiful Alentejo countryside with its cork oak forests, vineyards, and olive groves.
While the standard itinerary focuses on historical sites, Alentejo is indeed famous for its wines. With advance notice, your driver can adjust the schedule to include a brief wine tasting at a local winery near Evora or Arraiolos. However, this might reduce time at other attractions. The region is known for full-bodied reds made from native Portuguese grape varieties.
The Chapel of Bones (Capela dos Ossos) is a unique 16th-century chapel decorated with the skulls and bones of about 5,000 people. Located in the Church of St. Francis, it was created by monks as a meditation on mortality. While macabre, it's a fascinating historical site with the inscription above the entrance reading: 'We bones await yours.'
Alentejo cuisine is considered some of Portugal's finest. Look for black pork (porco preto), acorda (bread soup with coriander and poached egg), migas (bread dish with pork), lamb stew, and local cheeses. For dessert, try the egg-based sweets like pao de rala or the regional pastries. Evora offers excellent restaurants where you can sample these traditional dishes.
Yes, Arraiolos is the perfect place to purchase these famous handcrafted carpets directly from local artisans. You'll find various shops in town offering authentic pieces in different sizes, from small decorative rugs to large statement carpets. Prices reflect the intensive handiwork involves, as each carpet can take months to complete. Your driver can recommend reputable shops that offer shipping services.
Spring (March-May) and fall (September-November) offer the most pleasant weather for exploring. Summers in Alentejo can be extremely hot with temperatures regularly exceeding 100°F (38°C), though the heat is dry rather than humid. Winter provides mild temperatures ideal for sightseeing without crowds, but some smaller attractions might have reduced hours. Rainfall is minimal year-round in this region.
