Itinerary

  • Castelo De Ourem

    The Convent of Christ (Portuguese: Convento de Cristo/Mosteiro de Cristo) is a former Roman Catholic convent in Tomar, Portugal. Originally a 12th-century Templar stronghold, when the order was dissolved in the 14th century the Portuguese branch was turned into the Knights of the Order of Christ, that later supported Portugal's maritime discoveries of the 15th century. The convent and castle complex is a historic and cultural monument and was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1983.

    2 hours

  • Synagogue of Tomar

    The Synagogue of Tomar is the best preserved of the medieval synagogues of Portugal. It is located at 73 Rua Dr. Joaquim Jaquinto, in the historic centre of the city of Tomar, and houses a small Jewish Museum. The synagogue of Tomar was built between 1430 and 1460 by the thriving Jewish community of the town

    2 hours

  • Castelo de Tomar

    The Castle of Almourol is a medieval castle atop the islet of Almourol in the middle of the Tagus River, located in the civil parish of Praia do Ribatejo, 4 kilometres from the municipal seat of Vila Nova da Barquinha, in Portugal's Center Region

    1 hour

  • Largo do Pelourinho

    The Convent of the Order of Christ needed a water supply, and the answer was to construct this magnificent six-kilometre aqueduct to conduct water from the four springs at Pegões. The project began in the 1590s and was planned by the Italian military architect Filipe Terzio who had been hired by the Portuguese crown.

Private Knights Templar tour

Published on Nov, 2023

It was an amazing trip and Hugo was an excellent guide. He even picked out an awesome local cafe for lunch….. would highly recommend this adventure!!!

Hugo is a FABULOUS guide - Ask for him! RECOMMEND!!!

Published on Sep, 2022

Hugo was a EXCELLENT guide. This is truly a private, guided tour. And it should be for the cost. The greatest part of the tour was the visit to the Knights Templar castle. An INCREDIBLE site to visit. There were several sites listed on the description that we did not get to see bc they were closed. I would double check before you book to make sure what they say is included…is actually included. Hugo made up for this by taking us to other sites but it was a bit disappointing. My 81 year old Dad was with me and Hugo was incredibly respectful and considerate of him and his needs which was greatly appreciated. All in all, I would recommend.

Hugo was a fantastic tour guide!

Published on Sep, 2019

Our tour guide, Hugo, had to walk up the hill to our hotel because cars aren't allowed on the street but he was very friendly and accepting of this inconvenience. Then, as we set out for Tomar, he gave us some interesting information about Lisbon while driving out of the city. Once we left the suburbs, Hugo asked about what we wanted to see and do. I told him I read a book about the Templars and only a small portion of the book talked about the Templars in Portugal and I'd like to know more. He knew a lot about the order and we discussed their history almost all the way to Tomar. We saw a fantastic castle and monastary then we went to visit the church where Templars were buried. Hugo showed us around the beautiful town of Tomar then he took us to an amazing little restaurant that is loved by the locals. He timed it perfectly because we were seated and served immediately but, when we left, there was a line to get in. The meal and drinks were all included in the tour, as was admission to all the sites we visited. To make a long story short, Hugo showed us several more historically significant sites and gave us a great understanding of them. Later that afternoon, he took us to a wonderful pastry shop. We sat outside and had pastry and coffee and enjoyed the beautiful view of an 800 year-old monastary. It was a nice way to finish off the day before driving back to Lisbon. I highly reccomend this tour and Hugo was a great guide.

This is an absolute must see! There...

Published on Jan, 2018

This is an absolute must see! There is so much history with this tour. The castles are really neat. Two are ruins and one took over two hours to tour and was amazing! Suzanna was such a great guide. Had a ton of knowledge and taught us so much throughout the entire day. She even took us off the beaten path for two extra stops that she knew we would enjoy! We got to see the dam and aqueduct. She was also very accommodating with our small three children. We stopped at an excellent little restaurant that she recommended for lunch. A little bit of a drive from Lisbon, but definitely worth it!
