The Convent of the Knights Templar in Tomar, surrounded by the walls of the Castle of Tomar, was initially built in the XII century for the Templar Order. The monument was rebuilt over 5 centuries and became, from the Manueline period, the symbol of the opening of Portugal to exterior civilizations.

The tour continues through the Monastery of Batalha, built by King João to commemorate the victory over the Castilians at Aljubarrota Battle, in 1385. The Monastery is one of the masterpieces of Gothic art.

At small distance, we will find The Monastery of Alcobaça, founded in the 12th century by Our first King D. Afonso Henriques. It's a masterpiece of Cistercian Gothic art.

The day will not end before our visit to the medieval fortified town of Obidos.

Best time to visit

Lisbon is rewarding year-round, but spring and early autumn typically bring the most comfortable temperatures and thinner crowds than peak summer. Morning departures tend to be quieter and cooler; booking ahead is recommended in high season as popular cultural tours slots in Lisbon sell out.
