Overview

On this tour you’ll delve into Portugal’s Neolithic period (circa 5500 to 3000 BC) and explore the region’s most remarkable sites, including the Menir of Almendres, the Cromlech of Almendres, and the Great Dolmen of Zambujeiro.

The Alentejo is home to many megalithic structures, including cromlechs, menirs, and dolmens. It is during this period when agriculture emerged, along with many other significant cultural and social developments.

Your tour guides are trained archaeologists and look forward to showing you some spectacular sites from Portugal's past.

Activity itinerary

Cromeleque dos Almendres
  • 1h 15m
Our meeting point for this excursion will be the Roman Temple of Évora. From there, we will embark on a short 25-minute drive to reach the Menir of Almendres. This impressive solitary standing stone, approximately 4 metres in height, holds significance as a prehistoric ritual site. Next, we will proceed to the nearby Cromlech of Almendres, situated just a few minutes away by van. Often referred to as the Stonehenge of Portugal, this extraordinary site features two concentric circles formed by standing stones. You will learn about the history of this spectacular site from archaeologists specialising in the prehistory of this region. You will also have some free time to explore the site.
Centro Interpretativo dos Almendres
  • 15m
As we leave Almendres, we will make a stop at the interpretive centre/gift shop.
Anta Grande do Zambujeiro
  • 30m
We will regroup and embark on a 25-minute drive to our next destination, the Great Dolmen of Zambujeiro (Anta Grande do Zambujeiro), a remarkable prehistoric burial site. Notably larger than other existing dolmens, this site holds great intrigue. We will delve into the archaeological discoveries made here. Our return journey to Évora will commence thereafter, with drop-offs scheduled between 12:30-13:00.
