Jerónimos Monastery, Belém Tower & More - Our tour with Andre through the Jerónimos Monastery and Belém Tower was one of the best we’ve experienced. Having visited many monasteries before, this one easily ranks in our top three — not only for its beauty and history, but also because of the way Andre brought it to life. He has a gift for storytelling. Starting from the very foundation, he built the narrative piece by piece, adding fascinating and unusual details that kept us engaged the entire time. It felt less like a lecture and more like a journey, with each layer of history unfolding naturally. Andre also made sure we experienced more of Lisbon’s treasures, including a stop at the oldest bakery in the city — a delicious and authentic treat — and a visit to the impressive Maritime Monument, which added even more depth to the day. His knowledge, passion, and thoughtful pacing made the experience unforgettable. We walked away not only impressed by the monastery and tower themselves, but also with a deeper appreciation for the stories and culture behind them. If you want a guide who can transform incredible landmarks into living history while weaving in local gems, Andre is the perfect choice.
