Has anyone done a dark sky program/tour in Portugal? There is an observatory near Monsaraz (Alentejo?) that offers a night program with telescopes. My only concern is driving back to our lodgings afterwards at 11 p.m., on probably very dark, and possibly winding, dangerous roads. We've booked 2 nights in Evora, which is about 35 km (22 mi) back from the observatory. We have lodging for that night in Monsaraz as a back-up. Anyone with experience of this? We'd be happy to pay for a tour to pick us up in Evora, take us to the observatory and bring us back, but have found nothing offered like that. Thank you.
