The passion of Portugal

Published on Jun, 2024

We took a modified version of this tour with Orenna. While we enjoyed many tours in Portugal, Orenna was - by far - our guide who was most passionate about her specialist subjects, especially the Templars. We learned so much from her and had so much fun! We started the tour in Arrialos at the Tapestry Museum. We appreciated that Orenna helped us to engage with craftswomen making tapestries therein and then to find places to shop for modern tapestries to take home. During the drive to our next stop, Orenna taught us about the history of Portugal, the surrounding area, and the Templars. We were delighted by the stunning beauty of Almourol castle. Orenna gave us several suggestions for our lunch stop in Tomar and then showed us around the fascinating town. We visisted the church, synagogue, and the castle and enjoyed, too, the beautiful scenic homes and streets. Our next stop was the gorgeous Batalha church. Finally, Orenna ended the tour just across the street from our hotel for the evening with a visit to a historic shop and a taste of ginja. A sweet and tasty finish to a wonderful day!

This was a fantastic tour. Despite the rain, I would not have missed a minute of it. Juoo was a personable and very knowledgeable guide. I absolutely recommend this tour.

Great Tour!

My wife and I along with friends took the private tour with Joao who was extremely knowledgeable and shared a great deal of history around the Knights Templar and the Order of Christ as we toured Almourol and Tomar. Great tour and would definitely recommend.

Highlight of our trip. Pedro was knowledgeable and personable tailoring the tour to our interests. Ask for Pedro. His knowledge of Templar and European history makes the day pass so quickly.
