What to expect

Prepare yourself to live a journey back in time, all the way to the medieval times, and the chance to visit 12th century castles that were built by the legendary Knights Templar.

At the first stop, there will be a short boat trip that will take the group to the island of the Almourol Castle, the most stunning medieval castle you can find in Portugal, with breathtaking views and sceneries around.

Next the medieval journey will take you to Tomar, a city founded by the Knights Templar that turned out to be also important a few centuries after when Henry, the Navigator, was the leader of the Knights of Christ.

In Tomar there is a stop at Santa Maria do Olival Church, former mausoleum of the Masters of Knights Templar in Portugal, and at the Convent of Christ, one of the most outstanding and significant buildings for Portuguese history, a UNESCO site since 1983. A day to remember for all the medieval history and heritage enthusiasts. It also includes a surprise to sweeten your mouth. Join the Knighthood!
