Very well maintained old castle. Not a lot to see inside the castle itself, but you do get to walk along the ramparts and a little in the sewers below. Not bad for 2€. This is the castle from Game of Thrones Season 7 used for Castelry Rock.

Entrance fee is €2. 30-40 minutes you need to see and to walk inside. Astonishing view from the top to the city. Arabic water storage, small chapel, many towers and stairs.

A really good experience. Not crowded and gorgeous views.

Well worth the visit. Best to walk up to it from the Plaza Major in the early morning to arrive for its opening. the views are spectacular as is the place itself. The 'old town' of Trujillo, its walls and old streets takes your mind back to the time it was built and you are in awe.

Fantastic stay in Trujillo , the architecture is truly amazing topping with a fantastic Castle.

The Alcazaba de Trujillo is perched up on a hill. This fortified military camp was built in the 13th century mainly for defensive purposes, which is why there are no residential rooms. From what I could see from the outside is somewhat preserved. While it is on the outskirts of the old town, I do recommend going there. Unfortunately the day I went, I waited for an hour for it to open after the lunch break and it never did.

This should be the peak of my trip to Trujillo and I kept it for last. Unfortunately, the opening times are once more wrong online. The local ourist management is sloppy enough to ruin a visit to this town. Certainly not worthy of a town that expires world Heritage status.

This a well preserved historic theatre built by Ancient Rome. During the 1st century AD, the current stage front was erected. The theatre was abandoned in the 4th century AD after the official adoption of Christianity, which considered theatrical performances immoral. Site archaeological excavations started in 1910 onwards. Interesting place to visit. Entry fees charged, long queues, book ahead. Uneven terrain, lots of walking, climbing crude stairs. Popular place, lots of tourists and locals. Toilets nearby. Great place for photography.

Very recommended. It was built 16-15 year b.C by consul Marco Agripa. It was to around 6000 people. It’s like Roma in small scale but better because it is in a very good state. There is a ticket without guide to visit the full monumental complex: Roman Theatre, Circus, Moreria Arqueological Area, Mithraeum House, Columbarium, Alcazaba, Anfiteatre and House, Diana Temple. All of this for only 17€ per person (normal fee).

Why go to Rome! We purchased our €17 day pass, giving you entry into all of the sites, which is great value. You are given a map detailing the locations of the other sites. Here, you will be transported back, walking through the amphitheatres and tunnels. We are here in the non peak period, and it's fabulous! It's hot, though, so make sure you have a hat and water. You will need it. Put this site on your list of things to do.

If you passed the first beautiful amfitheater you wil see the other one which is more beautiful with incredibly high pillars and colums. You will be blown away what you see. The long walk is all worth it, also if you are not very capable to walk. Advice: combination ticket for 17 euro.

Seriously one of the most amazing places I have visited in Spain. I loved every single minute of my time in this place.

What a fabulous site. To see 2 Roman sites and more in one place. Parking is hard. But beautiful to walk through

Excellent archaeological site, very informative with boards in Spanish and English. They need to provide more water stations and shaded areas around the site as the heat is so intense, also rubbish bins.

Magnificent museum. Even only the building is already worth it. There’s a lot to see and learn and wonder about. The entrance fee is 3€, except for Saturday afternoon and Sundays (free then). The only things that could be better; the amount of English explanation (not everything was translated, and some of it was translated poorly) and the restorations sometimes are very unclear. What is old and what has been restored? Absolutely worth a visit!

We did not know that this beautiful museum has so many cool artifacts and mosaiques and statues and roman coins and amphoras and some weapons. I really enjoyed the Roman coins and mosaiques the most. Some of them are sooooo huge and fantastic. They have 3 niveaus where you can walk for hours and that you will get overwhelmed by everything you see. 10 stars.

Stunning example of a museum supporting adjacent archaeological site. Most of the significant artefacts were moved to the museum for protection and safekeeping. What a comprehensive display. Worth the entry fee but even better on a free day! 😀

The ticket it’s free. Three levels fantastic history of Romanic cologne

Wondering where all the art is? It's here! Tons of amazing frescoes, sculptures, and grave goods to satisfy your curiosity. Absolutely free and well worth your time.

Well designed building. Nice space feeling.

This museum, in fact, this entire city center, is an archaeological, dig along the lines of anything you would see in Italy with so many treasures they are still finding from the old capital of Lusitania back in ancient Rome. If you’re at all interested in ancient Roman history and you’re in Spain you really should see the city which is a world heritage site. it’s unbelievable that a city way out in the extremadura has a rich historical inheritance, and the museum is very well organized and beautiful for a city of modest size. Ole!

Very cool temple, it was the first place I visited where I actually felt like I was really standing in history and not just in a basement of ruins looking at house outlines. Definitely check this place out. You can buy a pass to see all the attractions in Merida for 17 euro and walk around town visiting the coliseum, race track, Roman crypts, the temple of Diana, barracks, etc.

It is one of the most impressive architectural examples on the Iberian Peninsula. Renowned for being the best-preserved temple in the region. The Temple, rectangular in shape, stands on a high podium of granite. Lots of walking to get here, and climbing stairs to the second level or level below. Popular place, lots of tourists and locals. Entry fees charged, long queues, book ahead. Wear comfy shoes, take water, wear hat, sunscreen

Day or night, sun or rain... it's just beautiful. Within 5min walk from Paula Films Hotel. And there is a next door gourmet burger joint with a view (next time).

Wow this place is absolutely incredible! I love getting the opportunity to visit places like this! It's what makes travel so special! Please visit here if you are in the area!!

The Temple of Diana in Mérida is a stunning example of Roman architecture. Interestingly, it was not dedicated to the goddess Diana but rather to the worship of the emperor and his family, in line with the imperial cult of ancient Rome. In the 15th century, a nobleman decided to construct his palace directly atop the temple, significantly altering its original structure. Later, in the 20th century, a U-shaped concrete building was inexplicably constructed around the temple—a decision that remains puzzling to this day. Despite these modifications, the temple remains a fascinating site. It showcases layers of history, where you can see how the Muslims built upon structures left by the Visigoths, who, in turn, had built on the original Roman foundations. The interplay of these civilizations makes the temple an extraordinary testament to the rich and complex heritage of Mérida.

It’s in the center of the town, and really cool when you look and think about how long it’s been there

Very cool area and a nice walk from the local hotels. The way the city has been built up over time around Roman architecture is amazing. The area around the ruins gets very busy with your groups after about 10am so if you are trying to get a peaceful viewing experience go early.

One of the most beautiful places to have an event, I barely seen something like this was this crazy view, especially on the sunset

To start off, its unique, NO FEES to visit. Stunning views from the wall, very walkable, however many little flights of stairs that maybe difficult for the walking challenged A must see attraction

Really fun to explore. Doesn’t feel touristy at all. I think there were only two people exploring this lovely spot the morning f I was there. All the I information about the history of the Alcazaba is in Spanish, Portuguese, and English. It was particularly nice in the morning with the sun peaking out from behind the hill on which the Alcazaba sits.

Alcazaba de Badajoz Type: castle Time spent: 60 min Entrance: free Parking: available WC: available The Alcazaba of Badajoz is an ancient citadel in Badajoz. The alcazaba as it now appears was built by the Almohads in the 12th century, although it probably existed from the 9th century, when Badajoz was founded. In the 11th and 12th centuries it was the residence of the rulers of Badajoz. It was declared a national monument of Spain in 1931.

Nice place to visit. There is a garden, You have a great view over Badajoz and the outside area.

loved it, especially my two year old. He loved every minute of the walk around the castle walls

Must see place in Badajoz. Big, interesting fortress, from it is possible to see big part of the city, and river as well. We liked this fortress very much, there are tables with texts both in Spanish and English.

Lovely decorated and interesting place. Waiters were very inattentive though. Shame as cocktails were great. Location is lovely.

A very lovely and nicely decorated place in a quiet corner of Badajoz. The service is good and there's a wide selection of spirits and teas. The price is certainly on the higher side, considering that we paid € 6 for a regular glass of Martini Vermouth.

It's a very nice place and friendly staff. My pictures don't make justice of the bar.

I really liked the decor and setup of the place. The cocktails were great....tasty and big glasses. One draw back is that they don't offer any wine.

Fabulous place. Well worth a visit, and not especially expensive.

Vau what a place! You have to visit there!!!

I went this place.It is a great restaurant.Out of the place,you can encounter some Arabic figures.And there is a lovely fountain.Its decoration is indeed well-prepared You must go and live it!

Cool building from Siza Vieira. The tour & wine tasting was a delight even though it was a bit fast. There's also a store at the end & you can have the wine bundling for cheaper price ! I recommend the white wine (tasted fruity & sweet)

Amazing architecture (Siza Vieira) - inside you can find a shop wine.

Very nice winery at a very quiet place. The staff was super friendly and explained what and how they do. We went there for a visit after a business appointment at Delta Cafés.

Interesting building, and had a show about species of the area when we visited. The rooftop has a great view of the surroundings. The tour itself is rather quick and simple, of a company that still relies heavily on manual labour. The wines are definitely not worth the price.

A nice building designed by Alvaro siza. The tour is pleasant.

What a wonderful moment I had to visit Adega Mayor! One of the most appreciated winery in Portugal, known for producing high-quality wines that showcase the region's rich terroir. Their wines produced with love and care reflects a perfect balance of traditional winemaking and modern techniques, creating a unique and memorable experience for wine enthusiasts. I really suggest a visit to taste and feel the wonderful moments that this region and specially Adega Mayor can offer to those who enjoy good moments in their lives!

Amazing wine tasting and very interesting explanation about the history of the company and its founder. Our guide has been very competent. An experience I definitely recommend.

Fascinating museum in a fabulous setting! Wide range of exhibits well arranged for a comfortable and enjoyable visit.

(Translated by Google) We were left speechless... if visiting the Olivenza tower was spectacular, the museum is worth dedicating an entire morning to. Rooms with incredible details. Life in 1890 1910..... from dentist's room to blacksmith's shop... from a farmer's bedroom to an office.... truly incredible. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and like all the museums in Extremadura, really cheap. (Original) Nos quedamos sin palabras... si visitar la torre de Olivenza fue espectacular el museo es digno de dedicarle una mañana entera. Salas con detalles increíbles. La vida en 1890 1910..... desde sala de dentista a herrería... desde dormitorio de un labriego hasta un despacho.... realmente increíble. MUY RECOMENDABLE y como todos los museos en Extremadura realmente económicos.

(Translated by Google) 👏🏻The best ethnological museum I have ever visited, what a pleasant surprise 🥰 the rooms are incredible with the different trades and daily life in the past, the level of detail will not leave you indifferent, from grocery stores to a barbershop 💈, printing, toys, utensils and more. Also take the opportunity to climb the Torre de Homenaje that provides excellent views of the beautiful town of Olivenza. There are no stairs but it is a continuous ramp, in parts quite steep. 🎟️ Admission is super reasonable, €2.50 or €1.50 for groups. A must in Olivenza that offers more than it seems and gems like this place (Original) 👏🏻El mejor museo etnológico que he visitado, que grata sorpresa 🥰 las salas son increíbles con los diferentes oficios y vida cotidiana en el pasado, el nivel de detalle no te dejará indiferente, desde ultramarinos a una barbería 💈, imprenta, juguetes, utensilios y más. Aprovecha también para subir a la Torre de Homenaje que brinda vistas excelentes del pueblo bonito de Olivenza. No hay escaleras sino es una rampa continua, en partes bastante empinada. 🎟️ La entrada es súper razonable, 2,50€ o 1,50€ para grupos. Un must en Olivenza que ofrece más de lo que parece y joyas como este sitio

(Translated by Google) The Ethnographic Museum of Olivenza, whose name is rightly due to Francisco González Santana, its great benefactor, emerged for the first time in 1980 as a result of a small ethnographic exhibition held on the occasion of the IV Extremadura Week at School. Due to the success achieved and the high participation, the need to create a permanent museum was raised, giving rise and with constant work over the years to the space we know today. In addition to some temporary exhibitions inside, we can enjoy a very complete collection of objects through which it is intended to recreate the uses and customs of a not so distant past. The museum is huge so if you like to recreate yourself, go early as the visit will take a long time. The entrance fee is €2.50 and includes the climb to the top of the Castle's Torre del Homenaje. It is the only place in Olivenza where you have to pay to enter but in our opinion the price is more than justified. (Original) El Museo Etnográfico de Olivenza, cuyo nombre se debe con justicia a Francisco González Santana, gran benefactor del mismo, surgiría por primera vez en el año 1980 fruto de una pequeña exposición etnográfica celebrada con motivo de la IV Semana de Extremadura en la Escuela. Debido al éxito conseguido y la alta participación se planteó la necesidad de crear un museo de manera permanente dando lugar y con el trabajo constante a lo largo de los años al espacio que conocemos en la actualidad. Además de algunas exposiciones temporales en su interior podremos disfrutar de una completísima colección de objetos mediante los cuales se pretende recrear los usos y costumbres de un pasado no tan lejano. El museo es enorme por lo que si os gusta recrearos ir con tiempo pues la visita da para un rato largo. La entrada son 2.50€ e incluye la subida a lo alto de la Torre del Homenaje del Castillo. Es el único sitio de Olivenza en el que hay pagar por entrar pero a nuestro juicio el precio está más que justificado.

(Translated by Google) A magnificent and complete museum that brings you closer to the past of ancient trades, ways of life and cultural tastes. The museum space is perfect and very well documented. It is enabled (there is an elevator) for people with disabilities and it is easy to navigate its different rooms. Your visit is totally recommended. You learn a lot while enjoying it. (Original) Un magnífico y completo museo que te acerca al pasado de antiguos oficios, modos de vida y gustos culturales. El espacio museístico es perfecto y muy bien documentado. Está habilitado ( hay ascensor) para personas con discapacidad y es fácil de recorrer sus diferentes salas. Totalmente recomendable su visita.Se aprende mucho a la par que se disfruta.

(Translated by Google) It's not outstanding, it's honors. The castle is beautiful but the ethnographic museum is sublime. Olivenza alone is worth a visit, which is otherwise an impressive city in itself. A stone's throw from Badajoz and with a Portuguese soul. (Original) No es sobresaliente, es matrícula de honor. El castillo es bonito pero el museo etnográfico es sublime. Solo por velo merece Olivenza una visita, que por lo demás es una ciudad impresionante de por sí.

A Panoramic Marvel with Room for Improvement at Forte da Graça: Perched majestically above Elvas, the Forte da Graça commands an impressive location, offering breathtaking panoramic views that sweep across the entire town and the vast valley beyond. From its ramparts, you truly grasp the strategic importance of this UNESCO World Heritage site, feeling the echoes of its formidable past. The sheer scale and intricate design of the fort are a testament to 18th-century military engineering, making it a compelling visit for anyone interested in history and grand fortifications. However, while the exterior and the overall experience of exploring the fort's defenses are undeniably captivating, one particular aspect left a notable disappointment: the Governor's House. Given its dominant height and central position within the fort, it has all the makings of being the "jewel of the castle." Sadly, it stands largely bare, with nothing left or displayed inside. This feels like a missed opportunity to truly bring the fort's history to life. One can only imagine the stories and artifacts that could fill this significant space, transforming it from an empty shell into a vivid portal to the past. Despite this shortfall, the sheer grandeur of Forte da Graça, its stunning vistas, and the opportunity to walk through such a significant piece of Portuguese history make it a highly worthwhile visit. Just manage your expectations for the Governor's House, and prepare to be awed by the fort's commanding presence and unparalleled views.

A very nice and big fortress next to Elvas. There are four predefined routes in the fortress marked by different colours, but you can also walk freely as you like. Especially a walk along the outer wall was amazing, as you can see and enjoy the whole area around.

A wonderful historical site to visit! The fortress is impressive and well preserved, with a large exhibition of historical weapons. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We especially loved exploring the underground tunnels – a unique and unforgettable experience. The entrance fee is very inexpensive, making it an excellent value for anyone visiting Elvas.

Perched atop Monte da Graça (Grace Hill), this imposing fortress is one of Portugal’s most significant examples of 18th-century military architecture. Enclosed within a square layout about 150 meters per side, it features pentagonal bastions at each corner. Originally a strategic hilltop occupied by Spanish forces in 1658, the site was later reclaimed by the Portuguese. At the request of King Joseph I and the Marquis of Pombal, the fortress was redesigned and constructed between 1763 and 1792 under the direction of Conde de Lippe (Count of Lippe)—hence its original name: Forte Conde de Lippe. As a key defensive stronghold protecting Elvas and the Portuguese-Spanish border, the fort never fell to enemy hands. Remarkably, it withstood attacks during both the War of the Oranges (1801) and the Peninsular War (Napoleonic Wars, 1811), resisting assaults by Spanish and French forces alike.

Beautiful and very large fortress with so many rooms and underground hallways to explore! €5 entry per person was very good value for money. Cheap souvenirs at the entrance as well.

Gorgeous unique fort. I wish they had a little more information about it, or a guided audio tour would be perfect.

With views of Elvas and a fantastic maze of tunnels and stairs. It's good to get lost in and see what you find.

In general, almost nothing special inside except the gorgeous view from the top. Anyway, the price is not big and it worth it going, at least to support all work they do to keep it well. Also, jfyi, not dog friendly. But, in general the castle is absolutely beautiful from the outside. It looks so unusual compared to other castles in Portugal. Also this village inside the walls - so beautiful and so big pleasure to walk around. Absolutely worth visiting!

Castelo de Évora Monte Type: castle / tower Time spent: 30-40 min Path for disabled: not available Parking: available, small Bike parking: not available Price: 1.5 EUR - the main tower (!) Main tower is closed on Mondays Public transport: from Estremoz (3.25 EUR) / Évora, bus, 3 times per day Built in 12th century, it was reconstructed several times. The main updates were done in the 14th century, when the medieval city was surrounded by walls, and in the 16th city, when the castle was reconstructed after the earthquake (1531). The unusual construction of the main tower can be related to the updated military necessaries of those times (16-17 centuries). In the 19th century the city lost it's importance and it's municipal status was ended.

We arrived at 17h and the castle was already closed 😐

We didn't attend to visit inside so I don't know about tickets, but the view from the hill on which the castle located is amazing.

Amazing location. The castle has a lot of reading material at the floor level and a nice view up top. You can explore the walls both on top and inside. It's a very calm and peaceful place although very windy.

Interesting architecture. Inside it is a kind of museum, with few real items but with clarifying info graphics. IMHO the best thing is the 360 degrees view that you can have from the roof. Be prepared to climb many steps in a narrow stairway. Entrance is free but check the open hours before. They close early. Take advantage to visit the village of Evoramonte and watch the sunset. A plus? Visit the crafts and regional product store Celeiro Comum.

Beautiful views, you can walk around most of the walls and towers, €2 adult entrance to castle during opening hours including access to the roof, nice café with friendly staff close to castle called The Place

Everything about this cathedral exceeded my expectations. The striking architecture, remarkable history, and breathtaking views from the rooftop made the visit unforgettable. Climbing up is well worth it, the panorama over Évora is magnificent. A must-see when exploring the city.

A stunning piece of architecture and one of the highlights of my trip. This is a beautiful site that is well worth visiting and the opportunity to climb to the roof provides breathtaking views of the city. There is a small museum included in your entry ticket and this is a fantastic site that you can spend lots of time at and not get bored.

If you visit the town of Era, Portugal, I recommend you visit the cathedral there for several reasons. First of all, we have seen many, many cathedrals in our travels, but this one is special. To be honest, my favorite part was walking around the roof of the cathedral, a unique experience! And of course, the altar and nave were beautiful, as you can see in the photos. Also amazing is that construction was started in the year 1280, still standing and in good condition.

Évora is a stunning town, and at its heart stands the magnificent Cathedral of Évora, perched on a hilltop like a crown jewel. The town itself feels like stepping back in time narrow cobbled streets, ancient walls, and a peaceful, almost magical medieval atmosphere that wraps around you the moment you arrive. The cathedral is an awe-inspiring structure, both inside and out. Its Gothic architecture is beautifully preserved, and climbing to the roof rewards you with sweeping views of the surrounding countryside. From every angle, it’s easy to see how this cathedral became the focal point of such a historic town. It’s hard not to like all of it. The quiet charm, the rich history, and the way everything centers so naturally around the cathedral make Évora an unforgettable place to visit. Highly recommended for lovers of history, architecture, or anyone looking for a peaceful escape into Portugal’s past.

The cathedral offers stunning vistas of Evora and the plains of the Alentejo. The best views are on the rooftop accesible via the towers. We recommend visiting in the late afternoon (4PM or later) This way you can catch the golden hues of sun entering the cathedral and shining upon the high choir. Please honor the reverence of this space with silence. Photography allowed in all area except the treasure room with sacred relics.

Stunning cathedral with amazing views from the rooftop! Évora Cathedral is one of the most impressive monuments in the city — a mix of Romanesque and Gothic styles. Climb to the top for a beautiful panoramic view of Évora and the Alentejo region. Peaceful, historic, and absolutely worth a visit!

Absolutely spectacular. Every part of the experience is fun. Getting to walk up the towers to walk on the roof and look out over the city. Walking through the cloister to see the sacred treasure collection (a MUST). Taking in the stunning beauty of the main cathedral. All of it fantastic. A highlight of our whole trip.

A Remarkable Surprise in the Heart of Évora Our visit to the Roman Temple of Évora turned out to be one of the unexpected highlights of our trip. After exploring the site, we sat just south of the temple at a small nearby bar, enjoying a cold beer and a glass of wine in the sunshine a perfect setting to take in the view. The temple itself, with its beautiful surroundings and remarkably well-preserved columns, carries an incredible story. It’s hard to believe it’s still standing after centuries of history and change. The fact that it’s completely free to visit made it feel like even more of a hidden gem. Honestly, it felt like a bit of good luck that we stumbled upon such a special place in such a relaxed and charming way. Absolutely worth a visit if you find yourself in Évora you won’t be disappointed.

A stunning and beautiful piece of history, this is one of the iconic sites that can be found within the city and is one that you need to visit when here. It is really impressive and great to walk around and appreciate.

Beautiful and historic place in the heart of Évora! The Roman Temple — often called the Temple of Diana — is almost 2000 years old and one of the best-preserved ancient monuments in Portugal. Great spot for photos, especially at sunset! You can really feel the history here. Highly recommend visiting

Probably my favourite place to visit in Evora. Iconic stop. Ancient Corinthian columns from the 1st century, right in the historic centre, free to see any time. You must visit it while in Evora

Had more fun driving in the tiny streets of Évora! Temple is great. Easily accessible and free to view/walk up to. No tickets needed - only if you want to go inside the church, and that’s up to you. Awesome to see something like this well preserved and still standing.

This seemed a little out of place walking through town to stumble across, but it was magnificent to see. We were fortunate enough to walk by at night with it all illuminated, very impressive! These are the interesting things you can find when travelling through old towns in Europe, makes it very unique.

Very nice, though not so much to see around. The garden area has a nice view.

Cool but not much information given on it. If in Evora check it out but I wouldn’t go out of my way to come see it.

It's located in Câmara Municipal, but currently is closed due to internal works. Be careful, lot of photos are taken form other places.

I strongly recommend paying these a visit. They are located in the town hall and I suggest having a look around and picking up a free guide pamphlet. They are free to see and are quite interesting. Be aware that there is a limited amount on show and limited information to take in, so expect only a 10 minute visit.

Inside the town hall you can visit an archeological discovery, the ruins of a Roman bath. From the ground level separated by glass you can see the bath that is located beneath the current ground level, quite impressive.

It is currently closed due to renovations on the building (as per May 2023). So check in advance.

It's inside a building with offices, no informations about it and difficult to find. Could be worth more with some work.

Difficult to find. Google show different place. And nothing special to see

A fascinating and eerie place in the heart of Évora! The Chapel of Bones is covered with thousands of real human bones and skulls — built by monks in the 16th century to remind people that life is short. It’s both spooky and beautiful at the same time. Definitely a must-see when visiting

The chapel lined with bones is a truly unique experience that makes you reflect on the transience of everything. So many lives lived, so many stories that will never be told... The nativity museum is really interesting too, especially seeing how it was interpreted by different cultures. Would definitely recommend a visit!

Three stars is mainly due to the comparison with another bone chapel in Czech Republic! Sedlec Ossuary Kostnice Sedlec in Kutná Hora is way more unique, and much more interesting! So it’s a bit disappointed for me. Travel 2hrs from Lisbon to here just to see this places that I’ve always wanted to visited. The main church is amazing as other churches. The bone chapel sure has LOTS of bones, but it was simply piled on top of others. I was fortunate to visit Sedlec Ossuary Kostnice Sedlec and the bone chapel was way more beautiful decorated even though it was a much smaller church. This chapel is definitely not worth the trip if you had been to Sedlec Ossuary Kostnice Sedlec!

I think it's a bit expensive for what it is. It's small, but really a unique chapel. The chapel is super crowded. Wasn't really interested in the Nativity Scene museum; the Chapel is what's up. I had Black Sabbath playing in my ear buds which was perfect so if you're a fan of metal or goth, this is for you.

Very interesting ossuary. I paid in cash based on what is in other reviews to avoid frustration. 6 euro entry seemed a little much considering how small it is, but it's a tourist attraction so. The use of the bones is very interesting and used in nice patterns.

Spooky? It’s a place to visit, if you’re in town. The history behind and its fast visit not boring, and you can see also Nativity scenes from all around the world showcasing different art styles which were lovely to see.

This is a great place to see. It's not very big. Maybe take a few minutes there but you can stay as long as you want. Along with visiting the chapel, there is also 2 floor level to visit including a balcony that you can look out on the small square center. If you park in the square, parking fee is required with a max of 4 hrs. If you park outside the square, no fee for parking. After visiting the chapel, the church is connected right beside it. You can visit, no cost. Not much in Evora to do, however you can make it a day trip just by walking around and exploring. Lots of unique streets to explore. Restaurants are great and lots of places to buy souvenirs

Big Beautiful property. We walked around for awhile. No one was here... totally empty. We called and looked at the winery and gift shop. nothing was open Saturday at 2pm.

Monte da Ravasqueira is a beautiful winery in the heart of Alentejo, just over an hour from Lisbon. The place is surrounded by vineyards, olive trees, and stunning countryside, with a perfect mix of traditional Alentejo charm and modern style. The guided tour takes you through the vineyards, the winery, and the fascinating Carriage Museum, which has an amazing collection of historic carriages. The wine tasting is excellent, with knowledgeable staff who explain everything in a friendly way, and the wines themselves are truly worth the visit. It’s peaceful, scenic, and a great spot to relax, learn, and enjoy some of the best wines in the region.

This estate is a staggering 7,000 plus acres and has been owned by the same family since shorty after WW2. The family is one of the wealthiest in Portugal. This property was their summer estate where they groomed horses for a long time before the current generation decided to turn it into a winery. We arrived by car and found ample parking. We had a wonderful private tour of the estate. Our guide was knowledgeable and allowed us to not only explore the facility to be be educated into the process of turning grapes into wine. We walked from the tasting room to the fermenting facility which from a distance looked like old buildings but were in fact newer building made to look old. Inside we wondered along the gantries and looked down on the large stainless steel vats where the grapes are crushed and the wine starts its first fermenting in large stainless steel tanks. We then explored the storage room where a certain amount of wine destined for a vintage label are stored in oak barrels. We were allowed to have a peek into the bottling room where modern machinery fills and labels the bottles. The fields are labeled with Portuguese Ceramic tile signs that identify the type of grape grown there. Heading back to the tasting room we passed the private residence of the family which is still in use today. Along the way we popped into a building which forms the museum of antique carriages collected over the years by the original owner of the property. Carriages for the 1700 look as they did in the period. They have not been rebuild or reupholstered. The collection is very interesting even if your not into carriages. Just the array of the transportation of the pre-automobile era over the centuries is fascinating. We spent some time in front of a unique and rather large carriage that was once owned by the famous car designer Bugatti himself. From the museum we moved on to the wine tasting. The tasting comes with a fee depending on what you want to taste. In the end we discovered that the wine we liked is only $6 more at home in North America as the price the winery was charging. This was surprising and frankly, disappointing. One would expect the price to far less than the full retail half a world away. In the end we did not buy any wine. However, we decided to try a bottle of their champagne or Spumante as they call it because the can not use the Champagne name. We brought it home and look forward to opening it. The property also has a restaurant which requires a reservation in advance. If your in the area, its worth a tour.

Well versed staff who explained the history of the winery, along with the tour of the carriages. Excellent wine tasting to follow, with the opportunity to purchase wines/port/olive oil/honey before you leave. Explanations of the wines/grapes were amazing and made the day worthwhile. It should be noted that if you arrive by taxi, then arrangements should be made beforehand for collection...as this can be tricky. Overall a 5-star (if not higher) experience.

Beautiful property and winery. Out-of-the-ordinary because of the collection of antique carriages that visitors can see on the guided tour. Beautiful wine tasting room, interesting tour of wine-making, delicious lunch – and wine – in yet another beautiful room (with a fireplace), hosted by smiling, friendly Carlos. Teresa, our guide for the winery tour was informative, knowledgeable, nice and – when we told her we did not have a car – drove us in her car (weather was awful for walking). Worth a visit!

A place not to be missed if you around! We had an amazing tour, getting to know a lot of facts around vineyards and the family history - big thanks to Tereza (if I remember right name). After we had an unforgettable lunch and wine tasting - we really enjoyed this stay, thanks and continue what you doing because you are great, thanks!

As tours of wineries go, this is brilliant. Surprising store of beautiful old horse-drawn carriages as a bonus. We found 2 bottles of wine we loved and bought.

It's like a river. We can see lots of endemic fish. The aquariums are clear and well maintained.

Relatively small (less than one hour) but well taken care and with lots of different species. Particularly good for kids. Nice restaurant in the same building with a view for one of the fish tanks

Very complete. Nice fish display

My kids loved this place, it's fantastic, with a lot of different species, a place to feed fishes and also a cafe for human beings 😄

Nice place! Sea otters, axolotles and many fresh water fishes and reptiles.

A nice aquarium built around the structure and different stages of a river. It is not very big (comparing to other aquariums) but is "complete" and well organized. It has the normal gift-shop and also a room with activities for smaller kids. Overall, a very nice place to visit in the middle of Alentejo. The family ticket for 2 adults and two children was about 22 euros.

It is a place to see river species from Portugal and some from other places like Brazil. It is a tour of 40mins give or take and kids love to see all the different fishes. Right near to it there is a small river beach where you can go or you some tables to have something to eat from takeaway.

Large remains of what once must have been a beautiful castle with surrounding town. Especially in the 15th century it was a powerhouse and it was here that the first plans were made for a first sea expedition to India. That voyage would later be made by Vasco da Gama

Château de Montemor-o-Novo is a fascinating destination for photographers who love history and texture. The castle’s ancient walls, perched on a hill overlooking the Alentejo countryside, offer sweeping panoramic views and countless photo opportunities. The ruins, arches, and towers create dramatic compositions, especially in the golden light of late afternoon. The contrast between the rugged stone and the soft landscape surrounding it captures the timeless charm of Portugal’s heritage. A must-visit spot for any photographer exploring the region.

Great partially restored castle. Be sure to stop in to the interpretive center and watch the brief video of the history of the castle, along with great exhibits and a very knowledgeable young man who will gladly answer any questions you may have.

Was good to walk around and specially see the view from above! I bet it has mire life on a medieval fair time... Was a little sad with how broken down everything was already tho

Castle in a small town with an amazing view. I hope that is restored to its original state, as it needs some love. Nevertheless there is an audio tour and information so worth the detour from main highway.

Nice walk through a few different ruins with olive trees all around. Spots from 1883 and 1928. Would say more relaxing than historical, but still very enjoyable and free

Worth the visit! You can park at the entrance. Great views of the surrounding and interesting piece of history!

The hotel grounds are really beautiful and peaceful. The pool area and common spaces look great and the food is very good. The staff is also amazing. Everyone we met was kind, helpful, and friendly. But the rooms were a big disappointment. Ours was small and plain, with almost no decoration. It looked more like a small New York apartment or a basic Marriott room than what you’d expect from a hotel this expensive. The linens felt like the kind you might buy on Amazon, not soft or special. For how much the hotel costs, the rooms should be much nicer. Also, the beach is a 10-minute shuttle ride away, which we knew, but the shuttle only leaves once an hour. This is a beach town and most people go to the beach during the day, so it doesn’t make sense. If you miss the shuttle, you have to wait another hour, which is not what you’d expect at a hotel like this. The setting is beautiful and the staff is wonderful, but the rooms and beach access really took away from the overall experience.

A beautiful retreat to relax and enjoy quality service and food with a beautiful beach in nearby Comporta. The two beach clubs, JNCQuoi and Sublime, are also upscale and wonderful. It seems like the surf is not as rough in Comporta, however. FYI. (The two beach clubs are fantastic and definitely worth visiting though). I had two fantastic massages in the spa. Thank you, Joana and Katia- I feel so much better and really enjoyed meeting both of you; you’re top-notch!

Staying at this hotel is a truly magical experience. Every corner reflects care, dedication, and a special charm that makes guests feel at home—surrounded by comfort, elegance, and exceptional attention to detail. The service is impeccable, but what truly sets this place apart is the extraordinary team behind it all. From the warm welcome at the front desk to every thoughtful touch throughout the stay, you can feel the passion and commitment of a group that genuinely loves what they do. A special recognition goes to the amazing marketing, events, and coordination team, whose creativity and dedication shine through in every perfectly planned experience, every unforgettable moment, and every detail that exceeds expectations. This is a place where excellence and warmth beautifully come together. - Estefania.

Wow! What a fantastic combination of luxury and casual relaxation. Our room was lovely with a biopool just outside the patio door and a modern bathroom and welcoming layout. Everyone I came into contact with on this property was kind and genuine. We attended a cooking class which was a lot of fun. Having stayed for several nights I left feeling refreshed and relaxed. The spa treatments were top notch and the grounds were impeccably maintained. I hope to stay at this and other Sublime locations for years to come. Thanks for such an incredible experience.

Absolutely loved our visit here! Felt like I was staying at a resort that White Lotus would film at. Stayed in room 8 which I feel is a great location to the gym, spa and main restaurant. Breakfast is fabulous and nice that it is included. Had dinner one night and had the Sole for two - 10/10. Service at this hotel is outstanding. My only complaint which is minor, better lighting at night when walking back to your room. Highly recommend this beautiful resort.

The location and grounds are beautifully kept. Sadly the quality of the experience makes it hard for me to recommend this location to any of my American friends in search of a place to unwind in luxurious stillness. 🚨 Most alarming: I found the staff to be quite dishonest about the services we were interested in. We were even charged a fee for something that was phrased as complimentary when offered. When I explained my confusion given the wording, management was unmoved and offered no concession for the miscommunication. It was a bit disappointing to say the least. For anyone hung up on Sublime, we have been shopping around for wedding venues so I will edit this post with my top recommendations in the coming months 💕

Amazing place for families! We loved our stay at Sublime Comporta. Such a beautiful and peaceful place, surrounded by nature. We played padel, had an amazing spa treatment, and spent time at the beach club — perfect for long lunches and sunsets. The staff were super friendly and made everything easy. A really special spot for a family getaway.

Used to be almost empty 3 years ago. Thanks to the restaurant now it’s really crowded. Lot’s of families, screaming kids, noisy adulta… There are many other beaches were you can find peace and noiseless moments to relax.

In early june there was little people and that was nice! Clear water but some waves

5 star beach, with an amazing restaurant and shaded parking. The sea is wonderfull, friendly waves.

Great beach! Clear and refreshing water but not cold, relaxing and clean sand, enough space for everyone

Only for the posh!! Don’t come here unless you are posh and have a “heavy wallet”. Also you can’t park a small van in the parking next to the beach. Hilarious. Fortunately you can still find nice beaches not flooded by the rich where you don’t have to put your towel far away from them not to ruin their expensive view.

Beautiful beach, great bar and facilities. Sunset from the restaurant is a must..

Very nice beach. Went there in one of those summer months and could still find a good spot, not crowded. In terms of parking, it's hard to find a good free place nearby, but there is a parking lot paid but cheap (around 2 euros for the whole day). Water is cold, the sand is very soft and clear.

Nice safari park with most animals given plenty of space. The 1hr safari ride at 4pm is a nice touch. Nicely laid out with animal shows every hour. The water rafting is great fun also. Could easily spend 3+ hours at the park. The safari could do with a bit more range of animals.

This is a park very well maintaned, with space for wild life, majority of animals are free. The staff is very friendly and explains everything. The place has well maintained bathrooms, and places to buy food or to sit down and eat food that has been taken from home. The extra experiences like lemur its totally worth it - they super cute, lovely and they jump on top of you while they explain about their ecosystem and how they behave.

Badoca Safari Park Type: zoo, safari park Price: +/- 23 EUR (adult), +extra prices for activities (rafting, photos with animals, VIP experience, etc.) Time spent: 5h+ Parking: large Bike parking: random place Restaurants: available WC: available Path for disabled: requires additional help Normal tickets include: Safari ride, 3 shows (birds - 30 min, lemurs - 15 min, reptiles -15 min - all in Portuguese(!), twice per day each), zoo. (!)Shows, Safari, Rafting are scheduled. Restaurant prices: 10-15 EUR/menu (it's a normal price for this type of places in Portugal). The place looks like Tapada de Mafra and Lisboa Jardim Zoológico. Part of it is a zoo, and the other one is a Safari park, where animals are walking where they want, so not every time they come close to you - depends on the weather and their decision. It's not a Disney cartoon, it's a wild nature, even if it's organised by humans. The road is dusty and it's normal for this type of place. The Safari ride takes 45 min. How to get there? From Santiago by car - 7 min, by bike - 25 min, buses are rare, bus stops are not close to the park. To the owners of this business: you can add an online option "Safari taxi" for the visitors from Santiago, Grândola, Sines.

Fabulous day out for all the family! Highly recommend paying to see the Lemurs and for the water rapids, too! It's a very chilled atmosphere and wasn't too busy when we visited on a Monday in July.

Nice experience but I was expecting better organization. You have weird timing to follow for different activities and it becomes confusing. We just visited safari and also took lemur interaction which is a very cool experience. But pretty expensive hence you already pay for access. They do not allow to take pictures there with lemurs and doing photo - and then sell for €12 which makes it weird. They did 2 photos of wife and child and asked 12 per each… We missed other activities due to weird timing so I would rate overall experience as 3.5

Lots and Lots to see.It was great having over an hour and half to visit and learn about the various animals in the park ( not a Zoo). Safari was great and you forget you are in Portugal not in Africa. The Park soon becomes a Safari and Ranch with so many different bugger animals. My absolute highlight was getting within touching distance of the majestic Giraffes 🦒 that came round our transport just freely walking back & forth...truly Magical ✨️ The only thing I was dissapointed in was fact none of the talks, tours etc were in English and was told quite abruptly...only in Portugese! I am entry level 1 but surely you need consider some visitors come from across the World to support the park ?

The overall experience did not fully align with pre-visit expectations. Although the park offers a sizable area, the observed animal population appeared somewhat restricted. The associated costs for a family of four presented a perceived premium. It is acknowledged that the upkeep of the park and the care of the animals necessitate substantial financial investment. The primary area of concern centered on the safari ride, which was conducted exclusively in Portuguese. Despite communicating a preference for English, the tour proceeded without accommodating this request. This required the continuous use of a mobile translation device during the ride. Furthermore, all scheduled shows were presented in Portuguese; therefore, visitors should be prepared for this.

It’s a nice and pleasant drive, but I found the prices quite similar to the ones in Norway. Took my son about 20 minutes to get an ice scream scoop with only a table seated. Hard to understand Had problems with the tax free as not all workers are informed about the rules between Norway and European Union.

Nice complex, with easy access and ample parking. Many shops but not all have the same quality products as the normal shops on town. More outlet shops… prices are competitive if you look for deals. All in all not bad

Open-air outlet with a nice layout. I was expecting more summer clearance deals, but most stores were already preparing for the winter season. Still, it’s a pleasant spot to walk around, with a good mix of popular brands.

Such a hidden gem just outside of Lisbon! I spent two full days shopping here because it’s full of designer stores at really affordable prices that you wouldn’t get anywhere else. There are also clean bathrooms and places to eat so you can spend a lot of time.

I like this kind mall, you can enjoy outside and inside shops, maybe not all shops in my budget, but some of in very good price quality balance :)

Nice outdoor shopping center. Lots of stores from famous international brands, plus numerous local shops that we not familiar with. We went on a Monday and it was not at all crowded. In fact it was quiet and pleasent to walk around.

We were lucky it was a beautiful November day when we went to Freeport. I was a bit afraid as it rained the days prior and there are no covered passages in this place. To go from shop to shop, if it's raining, you will get wet. If it's hot, you will melt. But there are a lot of great shops with good, end of collection/season deals. It's worth a visit.

Amazing hotel, wow, wow, wow! You really feel the castle stay: from the portraits on the walls, to the decoration, to the furniture - everything is transporting you back in time and providing for a unique experience. The staff is great and very helpful. The breakfast was probably the best of the whole trip - quality cheeses and hams, pastries and special shout out to the pumpkin cake, still dreaming about it. Unforgettable stay, definitely will try to come back.

Had a wonderful stay here in this beautiful historic castle. Staff was extremely friendly. Rooms were in great shape and with adequate AC. Dining options were great. Daily breakfast was exquisite, tasty with great variety and beautifully presented. You can freely explore the castle grounds while it is open as well which is a great way to enjoy an early AM or evening stroll. Great views too. I will definitely be back when passing through this area again. On another note - I left a personal item in the hotel and they even mailed it back to me, all the way in the United States at no charge. Superb service.

Wonderful place to stay, not far from Lisbon. The restaurant is fantastic and breakfast in the courtyard was so fun. Comfortable rooms. The wine in this region was our favorite of the trip as well.

Great atmospheric place! If you are looking for solitariness, quitness, and historical vibe, go for it. This is the right place for you. But be ready to stay at a medieval castle with some disturbing things that come with it. Like strong ever-present musty smell, unstable Wi-Fi, poor bathroom utilities... Overall, an interesting place to stay at,but not for more than a couple of days.

Fantastic hotel within the old castle. Large, comfortable, quiet and cool rooms. Excellent buffet breakfast. Helpful and friendly staff. Nice ambience and clean and well maintained. Highly recommended.

I was there with my husband and children to celebrate 10 months of my son's and our wedding anniversary, but I was there only for breakfast service. The place is amazing. Beautiful and historic place, but the breakfast service wasn't on the same level level from the group of this place is a piece, We had waited a while before we checked with the person who needed to be informed we were there like walking in nothing like a guest in the Place. The hot food sector wasn't so incredible and the coffee wasn't so incredible an experience for those who love coffee I advise you to go get a Nespresso made by yourself. For the group Pestana, famous in Portugal for getting a 5-star in service and hospitality I received a 2-3 star service, and it was needed to make a reservation during the summer. Maybe if you're a guest the attendance and treatment can be better than what I got, but one place like that wasn't worth the money, but the view and the castle are fabulous that worth your time.

Interesting historical place to stay with a view all the way to Setubal. Prices a bit high as it is a Pousada. Not worth the money. Better stay downtown cheaper and just visit the Pousada to see it. Parking high up just outside the hotel entrance. Several tourists just parked there to see the church and museum.

This open air fish and produce market (primarily) was an amazing experience. It was a definite example of sustainable living.

Excellent market with huge variety of fish & crustaceans as well as fruits & vegetables, meats, breads and cakes. Highly recommended for a lively experience of a market appreciated not only by tourists but more importantly by local residents.

Absolutely one of the best markets to visit. Incredible fresh fruit and vegetables, plus the the most fresh fishery to buy anything you desire. You can also enjoy some fresh oysters and drink wine while at the market.

I love a good open-air market, and while visiting Setúbal I stopped by to walk around theirs. It’s a large, lively market filled with local vegetables, organic products, butchers, fisheries, and a few restaurants tucked along the sides. It’s vibrant, full of color, and one of the best places to immerse yourself in fresh local produce and meet warm, friendly people. Definitely worth a visit — and you can’t miss the big pink building. Hard to miss!

Loved this market...didn't know what expect but pleasantly surprised..ended up walking up and down ...marvelling at the produce and deciding what to buy 🤔 loved the statues that tell the story of the market history... ( some videos have strobe effect)

Clean market with wide assortment of meats, produce, flowers and more. Definitely worth a stop to see the seafood and other fresh items!

One of the best Mercado, certainly better than the one in Lisbon. Bright and airy and beautiful tiles

Good place for walking with geat views over the coast and inland. Most of the paths we have taken so far are reasonable but some of the mapped routes online need some updating. there are wild boar around but we didn't " bump" into any. uber is cheap here so you can either do circular routes or get an user back if you start finish on a road as we did.

Stunning views on the south side of Setúbal. This highway is one you want to swap drivers just so both people have a chance to look out into the ocean 😋. If you go in the evening it may be less busy.

Fantastic beach. Bit of a steep walk to get to the ocean but was manageable with a 2yr old. Shame the restaurants at the front had no simple food options and both are 100% not suitable for children. Really let the place down. Had to leave and go elsewhere for lunch and dinner.

It’s was awesome when you reach top of the mountain. You forget your tiredness. I love hiking so it’s was fantastic for me…!

A beautiful place to beach hop in and take in some stunning views.

So stunning.. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit one of the most beautiful natural park in Portugal.

Beautiful.and scenic. Place at the pont for lunch or a glass of wine while looking out at the ocean.

Beautiful sea shore and amazing views

55 mins drive from lisbon. One of the best beach with sooo clear water and also the day i went were less waves, felt like swimming pool. It gets very busy though sk recommend going early And parking is on streets if you got lucky or nearby in a hotel parking uptown floor 7, which is costly I paid 10€ for around 4 hrs

Good beach. Hotel could do some cleaning of the litter that gets washed up on shore but otherwise it's easy to get to and relatively quiet.

Calm waters, really beautiful but usually very full... It has all the amenities you need, it's fairly easy to park either in the hotel park or the outside park behind it. You can always get a space in one of the concessions but if you don't want that just keep walking until you reach the end of the beach, you'll usually find a spot there.

One of my favorite beaches in Lisbon area, beautiful views, good infrastructure in the season (out of season unfortunately public toilet is closed, the same with beach bars, but there is plenty of bars and restaurants nearby).

It is an amazing place, really touristic, different shops and market for to buy any kind of food with good prices, I bought a cold cane of tea for only 85cent. The sea it is so clean and clear that even the water it is cold, looks like amazing for to swim in.

Just a lovely beach! We went early so it was not very crowded. There are many parking spots near the beach and if you want you can rent an umbrella. The water was just perfect and the beach was very clean. There are no showers so you should come prepared for that.

Beautiful setting on the old fort. We had a grilled sea bream which was good and fresh. The sides the fish comes with were boring (just a few potatoes and some steamed vegetables). Not the cheapest place, but it shouldn't be either with that location.

The view was excellent and the service was friendly, but the food, the most important part, was very disappointing. I ordered a tuna steak rare, but it arrived well done and covered in SWEET TOPPINGS!! Never seen this in my life! I asked before ordering if the dourada was “wild from the sea”, which was confirmed. But it was bland and tasted like it came from a fish farm even thought it is priced as wild. Not a place to eat real Portuguese food.

We only had coffee...but the service was excellent. Very friendly. The views are spectacular. Highly recommend.

Great spot along the water. Nice architecture and shops all around to explore.

The view is amazing but the food was terrible. It was served called and tasted poorly. We had creamy lobster rice, duck breast and Atlantic soup. They also charged us 15Eur for starters we didn’t order and didn’t touch. All in all, it is a very overpriced place with a low quality food

Amazing food they really are passionate about their food (the fish) amazing people

Amazing view and great food! The ceviche and olives are a nice touch
