      SANDRA IS AMAZING
      I didn't know about this tour. When I arrived in Evora I went to take a coffee in a cafeteria in front of Praça do Giraldo. When I went out I saw Sandra and a group of people and she welcome me too. When she start to talk she never stop, she really love her city and want to engage all the people. I really like the walking tour. I suggest her to everyone that want to discover the real Evora. Thanks Sandra

      Informative and fun
      Sandra provides great insight into the life and times of Evora. She is very passionate and enjoyes sharing her enthusiasm for this fascinating town with all visitors. Our tour took about 2 hrs 30 mins, but this varies with the size of the group.. Sandra covers the major sites within and around the main square. For anyone with mobility issues, there is not a lot of walking involved. Her morning walks are for English speakers. She also has an afternoon walk but this is for Spanish speakers.

      Don’t miss it!
      Do not miss this fabulous walking tour to learn the hidden jewels of Evora. Only complaint is that we did not schedule this tour immediately upon arrival in Evora. That would have afforded us better appreciation and understanding while walking the ancient streets and stairs. The culture and charm of Evora is easily seen through Sandra’s enthusiasm and personal warmth for the city. A job well done and enjoyed by all of our group.

      Lovely
      I signed up for the free tour and was surprised to find when it started that I was the only person who signed up! Regardless, Sandra was lovely and put me at ease. She is very passionate about her city and seems to genuinely enjoy sharing her knowledge. She also gave recommendations for restaurants and souvenirs. This tour helped me understand Évora and I’m glad I did it! I suspect Évora will soon become even more of a tourist destination than it already is - so go if you can, and take the free tour!

      A fantastic way to see Evora a different way
      A great morning spent with Sandra walking around the old city. The discussion was very informative and helped see the city in a new way. Lots of laughs and a lot of answers along the way.

      Great tour!
      So glad that I booked this tour for myself, my sister and our friend on our recent visit to Evora! She is passionate in her love for the city and wants to share her love and knowledge with visitors. If you can, book this at the beginning of your visit to Evora as Sandra is a wealth of information about this beautiful, historic city. We re-visited a couple of the places we initially went to with her and also got some fabulous tips on where to eat and even shop! Thank you, Sandra, for this wonderful walking tour.

      We had a great time on the tour! Sandra is incredibly warm and welcoming, and she clearly loves Evora. Her tour was a general overview of the city, with not a ton of specific historical moments but lots of examples of general concepts. We would 100% recommend Sandra

      Excellent Walking Tour
      Sandra is very energetic and enthusiastic about sharing her knowledge and experiences about Evora. The free walking tour was very informative. So often as tourists we run around to see the main attractions bit know very little about them. It really makes a difference. I highly recommend taking this tour to star your exploration of Evora.

      Sometimes one just gets LUCKY !
      Well, you win some, you lose some, but with Sandra's Tour I really felt I got lucky. I had only two days / nights booked to stay in E'vora, so noticing this Tour I decided to book it for my very first hours in the city to give me an orientation. It worked out perfectly. We met up as arranged ( Sandra perfectly on time btw for those who have seen the negative review ) in front of the church in Giraldo Square. Sandra not phased at all by the fact I was the only person attending on this occasion. There followed two and a half hours ( it would have been longer but for the fact that I had a date with a parking meter at 17:30 ) of enthusiastic explanation oh history and architecture and this and that and the other. Of course questions were encouraged and none I thought up went without an answer. There were plenty of recommendations for good , reasonably priced, places to dine, just have a coffee, or an ice cream. And for a good river beach, albeit that needed a bit of a drive. Best way to sum up would be that Sandra gives you not just 'E'vora' - but a bit of herself in these tours. Don't miss, and book it for your first available 3 hour slot on arriving, as you will then have plenty of recommendations for follow up the next day. Obrigado !

      Enthusiasm with Knowledge
      Sandra has a wealth of knowledge about Evora and the bubbly enthusiasm to convey it in an interesting way. She also has the modesty to simply say "I don't know" for questions she does not have an answer to. Highly recommend Sandra and her "free tour" concept which essentially is "tip me what you think the tour was worth". Tell Sandra when your next appointment is, otherwise she is so enthusiastic the tour could last over 3 hours. She has good recommendations for meals and nearby sightseeing. Thanks Sandra

    Sandra loves Evora and her enthusiasm is catching. She does an excellent job pointing out architectural “signatures “ of the Moors, the Jews, the Portuguese kings and the Romans that can be seen across all the main sites in Evora. She has studied history, the buildings and the builders so she can share many interesting details about all of it. We learned alot and had fun. Thanks Sandra!

    Evora is a beautiful and very historic city whose mysteries can be revealed by the right tour guide. We did a 2-hour walking tour with Sandra who is passionate about her city and the religious art and architecture that are found there. We asked dozens of questions and she enthusiastically answered them all. It was a wonderful afternoon spent with her and we wholeheartedly recommend the tour.

    To begin with, Sandra accommodated our late arrival to Evora as we were delayed getting our rental car in Lisbon. We had an outstanding experience with Sandra. We learned so much about the history of Evora as well as Portugal. She is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the history and soul of Evora. We were not rushed - our 2 1/2 hr tour lasted 3 hours as we asked many questions which Sandra was happy to answer. She gave us a number of restaurant and wine tasting suggestions which was a nice bonus. I would highly recommend booking this tour as we learned so much that we never would have read in a book. She made Evora’s history and culture come alive.

    Sandra is a gifted tour guide and lovely, bright, wise human who showed us the magic and miracle of Evora through its art, people, and intercultural history. She brought it alive in a passionate and enchanting way, unlike any other tour I've been on! It was a pleasure to meet Sandra and share this time with her, and her kindness and generous spirit will remain vibrant in my memories of this place. Thank you Sandra for an enlightening experience.

    Sandra provides a great tour for those interested in a more personal perspective of Evora rather than a traditional tour. She connects elements of Evora with her thoughts on human connectedness and spirituality. She is very enthusiastic and makes her guests feel welcome and appreciated.

    Last year, while visiting Évora at the end of a long solo trip, I found Sandra and joined her tour and it was the highlight of my day. She will show you the city with the expertise of a knowledgable local, and welcome you like an old friend! I learnt so much with her and truly enjoyed all the details she shared, as well as the recommendations. Her tours are truly a way to see "Evora with love"! :)

    Excellent 1/2 day out with Sandra. The tour was very good introduction to the history, architecture, art and more importantly the tales and stories of this historic town of Evora. Sandra is a brilliant storyteller. Lots of helpful hints, places to visit, restaurants and cafe to visit. We tasted spaghetti ice cream too.
    Highly recommended tour!!!

    Sandra is a thoughtful and intelligent guide with whom we were fortunate to spend a few hours. Her knowledge of the history behind each of the sites we visited made it seem we were seeing them as residents in that important and tumultuous period rather than visitors in our time. This area was central to wrenching changes in church and society in the past, and she helped us think of the impact on all the groups of people affected. You'll see some of these historic buildings in a light you would not have imagined!
