Discover the magnificent town of Tomar in the heart of the Templar region. You will be surprised by its unique atmosphere bathed in the history of the Templars, its charming streets, its absolute calm and its river reflecting the local architecture. The Convent of Christ, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the most sumptuous monuments in Portugal. We will venture outside the city to walk (not obligatory) on the dizzying Pegões aqueduct. Finally, you will have a little free time before the souvenir photo in front of TOMAR.
