5.00We were looking for a cork farm tour while visiting Evora and found only this tour for our dates. It was a perfect choice. Micaela was our guide who was super friendly and knowledgeable. Her English was very easy to understand. We now understand the whole cork farming process as well as prickly pears. We enjoyed sampling some products at the end of our tour and purchased some as unique gifts from Portugal. This experience more than met our expectations!
Very informative and...

5.00What a fantastic tour. Micaela was our guide and she took us on a walk around the cork trees and prickly pear cacti. She spoke excellent English (her mother is an English teacher), and she provided us with a wealth of information about the history of the area and the farm, the farming process, the different kinds of oaks on the property (one for cork, one for acorns), the history and processing of prickly pears, and the plans for an upcoming pumpkin field. They are a local company with deep roots (pun intended) and they use sustainable farming methods. We picked up a variety of products at their gift shop, including acorn liqueur, prickly pear tea, honey, and jam. It's great to support good companies and it's also great to spend time with friendly knowledgeable people who teach you things. In this tour, you get both!
Splendid!
