Free walking tours in Tomar

Fascinating account of the history of Tomar, both in general and in relation to the places we visited. Monica was clear in her explanations, very knowledgeable and also very helpful with ideas for other activities in the area.

Mónica did a wonderful tour, she knows a lot about Tomar and the experience was really enjoyable. I completely recommend the tour with her!

Se dovessi consigliare una guida in Portogallo, questa è Monica! Monica ha una preparazione eccezionale che ti dà una visione completa della storia del Portogallo intero e di come è strettamente connessa alla città di Tomar. Ci ha permesso di notare dei dettagli che ci hanno fatto apprezzare ancora di più la storia di Tomar rendendola unica. Super consigliato anche il tour al convento de cristo che ci ha lasciato sorpresi. Grazie Monica muito obrigada :)

Highly recommend this wonderful tour with Monica! She has lived in Tomar her whole life, and is a wealth of local and historical knowledge. In addition, she is so very kind. She went at our pace, made stops when we requested and answered our many many questions so patiently. You will love this tour with Monica

We met Mónica at the arranged meeting point and on time. Unfortunately some of the locations were closed so Monica gave us a tailor made tour of Tomar. She is a local person and knows everything (and more) about the town and the history. She is a history scholar and her knowledge of medieval and Templar history is vast. She speaks very good English and delivered the tour in a clear and easily understandable manner. She is very friendly and we had some laughs along the way. It was an amazing tour and I can’t recommend her enough. When we come back to Tomar we will be booking another tour with Monica.

Highly recommend this excellent tour of Tomar with Monica. As a historian, she provided a lot of facts about Tomar’ s past. I did not know the Visigoths occupied this far east and south, but Monica showed us evidence of their conquest and occupation. We also saw and heard about the Roman and Moorish presence in Tomar. And of course the kKnights Templar from 12th through 16th centuries, their influence on a Portugal as a whole and their participation in even naval expeditions to India, etc. it was extre Interesting to hear how all this history is still present and influencing modern Portugal.

Monica was fabulous. Her knowledge and passion of the History of Tomar and all connected to it was amazing. We loved the tour. Monica went out of her way to take us to some fabulous places. I would highly recommend Monica as a tour guide. She was so friendly, helpful and keen to share her wonderful Town with us. Thank you Monica

Monica was very friendly and passionate about the places and history of Tomar. She answered questions, gave recommendations for restaurants and places to visit in my next stop and went out of her way to ensure we enjoyed the tour. If you are visiting Tomar I thoroughly recommend taking a walking tour with Monica!

Monica was great she went above and beyond to ensure that we had the best tour. She really was able to show us the best of Tomar and is definitely worth doing a tour with.

While it was what was expected, I expected it to be really good and it was! Longer than expected but Fredrico took us all over the town and it was a great overview. He was so knowledgeable, fielding random questions about the history of Tomar with ease. Great tour!!

I thoroughly enjoyed my Tomar tour with Monica. She is was very knowledgeable and answered all of my many questions. We visited a lot of spots that I would never have found or thought to visit. Would highly recommend her to start your Tomar adventure

Frederico was a brilliant tour guide, he was very welcoming, his English was impeccable and he was very organised. He was happy to answer questions which helped us to understand the history of Tomar more fully. He also gave us recommendations for lunch venues at thr end of the tour.

Monica is an incredible guide. Born and bred in Tomar with a deep knowledge of its medieval history, I learned so much in just a short time, from the best spots for photos to how castles were heated. Highly recommend!

Mónica was great! I learned some history of the Knights Templar and visited places I would not ordinarily have seen. She even drove to the aqueduct and took me to the matchbox museum and a small ceramics studio where I will be buying all my souvenirs from Tomar. I am so happy to support the real artists of a community, rather than buying goods from souvenir shops. Thank you, Mónica! You were friendly, informative and this tour was exactly what I wanted today (except for the rain early on!)

Monica was very knowledgable and we learnt so much. We connected with her so easily and she made our afternoon so much fun. I recommend her for a wonderful experience in Tomar. Thank you Monica!

Mónica is a very nice person who knows a lot about Tomar's history. The stories about the Templar Knights are very interesting and she showed us every important place in Tomar. We enjoyed the tour very much! After the tour she also gave us a lot of extra information about nice places for us to see! Thank you very much Mónica!

My guide Monica did a fabulous job with the city tour. She is very knowledgeable snd provided great details at all stops, while personalizing for her audience.

Tomar came alive for us thanks to Monica! She's not just a tour guide, she's a storyteller. She wove together the history of Tomar, the Knights Templar, and Portugal with captivating anecdotes and insights, making our tour both educational and entertaining. We spent a long time exploring with her, and every minute was worth it. Don't miss the chance to experience Tomar and Portuguese history with Monica.

Because of the rain, Monica offered us a guided tour at the Convent. It was awesome! Monica is very knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommended!

Mónica fue excelente guía, nos mostró los principales hitos de Tomar. Nosotros hablamos español, pero entendimos muy bien su portugués 100% recomendable

Monica is knowledgeable, fun and approachable. I recommend her tour wholeheartedly.

We couldn't ask for a better tour or tour guide! Monica was very knowledgable and conveyed that knowledge very well. She was also very good at recommendations for restaurants and other attractions in the area.

Mónica fué muy profesional y dedicada. Muy instruída en todo lo que exponía. Se tomó la amabilidad de acompañarme hasta un lugar que quería conocer. Si visitan Tomar, hagan el Tour con ella! Muchas Gracias por el recuerdo que me llevo
