Tomar, the medieval city of 1160 and the legend of the Templars. On the “Tomar” tour, the traveler takes an unbelievable trip back in time, delighting himself with the famous Convento de Cristo (12th Century), which includes the enigmatic “Oratório dos Templários” called “Charola” templária, the medieval drawings reproducing São Cristóvão, symbolizing the passage of earthly life to the afterlife, as well as the Chapter Window, considered by many to be the most beautiful in Portugal. The Knights Templar (or Knights of the Temple of Solomon) came to Portugal in 1128. In 1159 they received from King D. Afonso Henriques, for their participation in the conquests of Santarém and Lisbon (1147), a vast territory. This tour also includes a visit to the historic Aqueduct of Pegões. In 1593 D. Filipe I (Filipe II of Spain) ordered the aqueduct to be built in order to supply the Convento de Cristo; as well as the passage through the medieval castle of Almourol (1171), an important landmark in the Christian reconquest.

We had Daniel for our guide. Expected the long drive to Tomar, but it was interesting to see the countryside and hear about life in Portugal along the way. I had read the extensive history about the Knight Tempers prior to the tour, so Daniel’s review of them was a good short synopsis. The main areas of the castle was under renovation but the convent/monastery and grounds were interesting. We were taken to a restaurant that served Portuguese specialties that we enjoyed very much. The Tomar Aqueduct was nice to view, but this was the only aqueduct that we have been to (for those without a fear of heights) where you can actually walk along my the top. Not difficult. This tour company is a small family business who accommodates to guest interests. Wonderful day!

Voyager dans le temps en visitant ce majestueux château, revivez l'époque des templiers. L'architecture est incroyable pour l'époque à laquelle, il fut construit. Et que dire du couvent, il est digne de la royauté! De plus dans ce tour guidé, vous allez voir le système d'aqueduc utilisé à l'époque . Et tout cela avec un guide attentionné à ses clients et qui aime partager ses connaissances. Merci Claudio, sans toi notre voyage n'aurait pas été le même.
