Great trip to Tomar - We had a lovely day with João. Because it was a Monday the castle was closed but he informed us before the cancellation date and we were totally fine with his proposed adjustments. He provide a wonderful commentary and we had a solitary space to view the castle. We had a longer time at the Church Santa Maria do Olival so we got to visit the local cemetery. Amazing. And of course the highlight the Convent of Christ. It is a fascinating mixture of history and art. Jãoa then found us a beautiful place for lunch and a pleasant ride back to Lisbon. Highly recommend this tour and this guide

Great visit to the Tomar area - Very nice day in the area of Tomar. We loved the Almaroul Castle and the Church of Santa Maria das Olivais for their historical importance. The Templar convent in Tomar is truly spectacular. You can easily spend 2 hours or more there. The small town of Tomar is also very nice. Our guide and driver, John (Jalaludin), was very friendly. He provided us with information before each visit and then let us wander around as we pleased.

Great option if you want to explore each site at your own pace - The driver was very attentive in making sure we felt we saw everything we wanted to see. There is no guide so you are at your leisure to explore each site on your own w/ any strict time restraints. You can go faster or slower which worked well for this particular itinerary.
