Knights Templar is a must see!

Published on Nov, 2024

The Knights Templar tour was as good a tour as I’ve been on.The Convent of Christ is a must see if you are in Lisbon. Our guide Daniel, aside from being very personable, had an incredible amount of knowledge about the Knights Templar and loves sharing that knowledge.

Very informative!

Published on Sep, 2024

We were fortunate to have Daniel as our guide again. So much info, and he was excited to share it! I recommend this company, and was extremely satisfied.

Daniel was amazing

Published on Sep, 2024

Daniel was amazing. Knowledgeable & accommodated a special need we had as well as possible- could not have asked for more.

Informative and Interesting Tour

Published on Jan, 2024

Daniel was a wonderful and informative guide and the sights we saw were different from the normal tours undertaken when traveling. There's a uniqueness to the Templar lore, and this tour, and Daniel's knowledge, highlight this. In short, we were very happy with this tour and especially our tour guide.

Fantastic trip. Highly recommended

Published on Nov, 2023

Our trip to Knights of Templar Tomar (including the Tomar synagogue), Almourol Castle and the Tower of Dornes was fantastic. This is the second time we have done a tour with Diogo. He is an excellent guide. He is extremely knowledgeable about the subject matter and his enthusiasm for this part of history makes this a most enjoyable trip. My wife and I highly recommend this tour.
