Excellent tour - Luis our guide was excellent. Received text giving information we're to meet outside the monastery and reminded not to forget coats and umbrellas due to expected weather. A small group there were only four of us. Luis is very knowledgeable with regards to the history of Lisbon and the monastery. Unfortunately, the church next to the monastery was closed for renovations. We then went to Belem Pastry shop to try the famous original paseis de belem which was very tasty. We were shown how they were made. Unfortunately for us, it then rained really heavily, so we got rather wet whilst viewing the Belem Tower and the Monument to the Dicoveries. However, our guide could not control the weather and made the best of the situation. Very enjoyable tour and would highly recommend

Amazing guide Luis - Luis was incredibly kind and well informed! I learnt a lot from the tour, although conditions were windy we were grateful to have had an informative guide to help us brace the winds! Not having to queue for the attractions was also a big plus!

Luis 💯 - Luis was very informative not only about the places we visited but also gave us a lot of interesting information both on the history of Portugal and on the culture of the country. As we walked from the monastery to the tower, he also took us to see the Padrao dos Descobrimentos and explained to us the story and details of this monument. Luis is 💯

Highly recommend Luis - Luis was professional, knowledgeable, and passionate. We had a great time visiting the monestary and nearby areas. The tour was a small group (only 4 of us), which allowed time for questions and sharing of experiences.
