Secrets made from secular engravings and out-of-this-world wines
We start this personalized tour through the beautiful village of Foz Côa, right in the heart of the interior of northern Portugal.
This visit could never be made without visiting the main attraction of the region: the Côa Valley Archaeological Park.
Classified as a National Monument in 1997 and a World Heritage Site in 1998 by UNESCO, it is a mandatory stopover, as it holds one of the greatest treasures of humanity.
You will discover a real open-air museum. Put on some comfortable shoes and come on.
The rock art of Foz Côa has engravings dated, mostly, from the Upper Paleolithic, that is, from our ancestors who lived there more than 20,000 years ago.
To make this visit to Vila Nova de Foz Côa and the region is to travel through millennia of history and hear the secrets that these rock carvings want to tell us.
Our visit passes through two of the main farms in the region, Quinta do Quevedo and Quinta da Pacheca.
