The Tour (Tour Code: WMP)
This Half-Day Private Tour invites you to travel in time. Preparing you to taste a wine reference, on one of the Portuguese demarcated regions, we cross the countryside, providing an interesting perspective and contrast between the great city that we left behind, to enter on the rural Portugal . And on this option, we follow the steps of kings and artists that have chosen the traditional area of Mafra, to develop what is considered to be, a pure expression of the baroque style, that gain force on the walls and on the magnitude of the Convent and Palace of Mafra. The perfection of shapes, the careful option on the magnificent marbles that decorate and give the structure, are a small part of the 18 th century world that we invite you to visit and to live, passing through the noble way of life, to the religious orders option of simplicity. You'll find all inside this pearl of the European baroque. But not only from the stone and its careful work the man lives. Wine has always been a challenge to achieve perfection and it is one of the legacies that have survived the evolution of times and the contradictions of taste, expressed by modern eras. The wine lives. And not far away from Mafra, crossing the countryside, we'll find the vineyards that are the cradle, the seed of this delightful product at Bucelas Wine Region. Tasting, learning and contacting with this "art" are part of this tour that during a period of half-day, invites you to travel across historical references and to explore the genuine Portuguese Countryside, leaving us a fabulous heritage that we have not forgotten and, you'll not forget.
Note: Mafra National Palace closes on Tuedays.
