Tomar
After the pick-up in Lisbon, we head to Tomar to visit the remarkable Castle and Convent of Christ, a site deeply connected to the Knights Templar. This city was part of a generous donation by Portugal’s first king, D. Afonso Henriques, offered in gratitude for the Templars’ support during the conquest of Moorish territory.
Not only did the Templars found the city of Tomar, but they also built this vast and intricate monument, which later became the headquarters of the Order of Christ, their spiritual successor. Blending a range of architectural styles—from Gothic to Manueline—the convent is filled with fascinating symbols and historical layers.
One of its most captivating features is the Charola, the original Templar rotunda, richly decorated and surrounded by mystery. This is truly a must-see destination for anyone interested in medieval history, architecture, or Portugal’s unique legacy.
Lisbon
We begin our journey in Alfama, one of Lisbon’s oldest and most traditional neighborhoods. Wander through its narrow alleys, feel the rhythm of daily life, and listen to the haunting sounds of Fado echoing from hidden taverns.
Next, we climb to Graça, perched on Lisbon’s highest hill. From the Senhora do Monte viewpoint, enjoy one of the city’s most stunning panoramic views. Nearby, discover the National Pantheon, where many notable Portuguese figures rest. If you’re lucky, you might catch the charm of Feira da Ladra, Europe’s oldest flea market, full of vintage finds and local flair.
We then continue to the iconic St. George Castle, where the city’s medieval history comes alive. Nearby, visit the Lisbon Cathedral, the oldest in the city, and the beloved Santo António Church, dedicated to Lisbon’s patron saint.
Heading downhill, the downtown area unfolds. Stroll along the elegant Rua Augusta, explore the grand Praça do Comércio, and dive into the energy of Chiado and Bairro Alto — neighborhoods full of charm, culture, and creativity.
Driving along Avenida da Liberdade, admire its grand architecture and luxury boutiques. Soon after, we pass the impressive Estrela Basilica and its tranquil gardens. Then, we cross the 25 de Abril Bridge, offering fantastic views of Lisbon from a new perspective — especially from the base of the towering Cristo Rei monument.
We end the day in Belém, the perfect place to relax and reflect. Taste the iconic Pastel de Belém, fresh from the original bakery. As a final highlight, marvel at the monumental Jerónimos Monastery, the historic Belém Tower, and the striking Monument to the Discoveries — all standing proudly along the peaceful riverside.
This tour is carefully crafted for a well-balanced and enriching day—but the pace and focus can adapt to your preferences.

What happens if it rains or there is bad weather?
All activities will take place throughout the year even if it rains.
