Wonderful intro to the History or the Templar Knights and Thomar.
We enjoyed a wonderful tour with Darren from Templar Knights Tours. He picked us up at the hotel and we toured for the next 3-4 hours. This was one of our highlights of our 16 day tour of Portugal. Away from the crowds with Darren guiding us, we gained such valuable insight from an expert. Thank you agin Darren.

Ask for Pedro Maga when going to Tomar!
Title: An Unforgettable Templar Experience in Tomar
★★★★★
My name is Samuel Rutter, and my Tomar tour with I Go Portugal was absolutely incredible, thanks to our guide, Pedro Maga. The history of the Knights Templar is fascinating on its own, but Pedro brought it to life in a truly exceptional way. His deep knowledge, clear explanations, and engaging storytelling made the complex history easy to understand and endlessly interesting.
Walking through Tomar and the Convent of Christ while learning about the Templars’ role in Portugal was a highlight of my trip. Pedro’s passion and expertise made every stop meaningful, and I left feeling both inspired and amazed. I highly recommend this tour — especially with Pedro — to anyone interested in history, mystery, and unforgettable travel experiences.

Another great tour with I Go Portugal from Lisbon to Tomar
The trip to Tomar and Costelo de Almourol with Pedro M from I Go Portugal was a very memorable experience.
My husband and I had a private tour in a very comfortable car and with a wonderful host.
We started our tour with Castelo de Almourol - took a short charming ride on the boat, then continued to Tomar and it's magnificent Convento de Cristo and walked the streets of historical Tomar.
Pedro is a natural born story teller- we had spend more than 2 hours in Covento de Cristo and he knew everything possible about the history, architecture and facts about it. His passion for the history of the places we visited and Portugal is incredibly contagious.
Thank you Pedro M for your positive attitude, your undivided attention and I Go Portugal for this trip - Convento de Cristo was truly one of the most memorable sites we had visited on our Portugal trip.

Astonishing -not to be missed
This day was the highlight of our time in Portugal. Pedro M has an amazing knowledge of history and culture. He was a gracious host and the SUV was extremely comfortable. He made the day rich, relaxed and easy and knew just how to manage our energy. The sights on this tour are staggeringly beautiful. Lunch was at a restaurant along the river bank. I cannot give a higher recommend to our guide and this trip.

Lisbon, big, busy, but with a rich past.
Going out with ANA FARIA as a private guide in Lisbon is almost a must and such a fantastic experience that I would like to announce this. Lisbon is indeed easily accessible by public transport, although you have to have a lot of time for it and the chaos on the trains you have to take into account (as I hear from a travel companion) . We chose a private guide who knows the city like the back of her hand and is a fantastic good driver. She also lets you choose what you want to see, depending on your personal interest: do you choose culture, history, architecture... whatever you want. The advantage is that you do the pieces on foot that you choose yourself (a bit of preparation at home), but that you pass all the long queues at the churches and sights and still save hours (also at the famous cultural gastronomic 'pasteis de Belem', although I find this culture a bit overdone myself) . This allows you to see more in 1 day than if you wanted to visit this large and busy city on your own. Even before lunch you can let us know your preference and Ana will drive you to a perfect and typical Portuguese restaurant.
I have heard a lot about the history of Portugal and the explorer Vasco da Gama and about the Moors and the revolution of Portugal. A lot we didn't hear about in school.
The new district, created after the World's Fair at the end of the last century, seems very hip, Artur Bordalo https://g.co/kgs/5dYJgwR , has placed its beautiful Iberian Lynx there, as a protest against the waste society. It is today a student neighborhood, but oh so cold and unsociable compared to our student cities in Belgium. So much concrete! There is still a lot to soften here!
Although Lisbon is not a city where I lost my heart after this city visit, a visit was more than worth it thanks to our local and competent guide. A big thank you to Ana. Haar contactgegevens: www.hearttofanomad.pt

Amazing day filled with Templar history
I visited Portugal again and had to use the services from I Go again, especially to experience the Templar tour that our guide Miguel had told us about on our previous visit and left us curious. And what an experience, the amazing history of the Templars in Portugal is both interesting and surprising. We visited both a medieval castle built by them called Almourol and a town founded by them, with the amazing (and really huge) Christ Convent. It was so amazing to really experience what was their lifestyle back in the day, especially through the very enthusiastic lens of Miguel, who never disappoints. We also had a lovely lunch with a view to the river and got to see the only existing medieval sinagogue in Portugal! What a day! Thank you Miguel and I Go.
