We had a fantastic... - We had a fantastic experience on the Belém walking tour, including the visit to Jerónimos Monastery, and a huge part of that was thanks to our guide, Leo, who was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging. The tour covered a lot, but we never felt rushed and had plenty of opportunities to ask questions. A special highlight was a visit to the “Pasteis de Belém” for their iconic custard tarts. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Leo as your guide!

Belem walking tour with monestary tickets - Our guide Leo took us on an amazing tour through the Jeronimos Monestary, monuments in Belem and a stop & tasting for the original Pasteis de Belem. Leo shared a wealth of information which made the tour so interesting I can't imagine it done any other way! We learned tons about the history of the monestary and the navigators/explorers of Portugal. I highly recommend this tour and our guide Leo! We couldn't have had a better tour because of him!

Great tour! - Luis was very informative about Lisbon's history and culture. He gave us explicit instructions about where to meet us and tailored our tour to the stated wishes of those in our group. He was just great - do not change a thing. He is also one reason we have such a great memory of Lisbon and now want to return again.

Luis is an excellent guide to Belem! - I took the "Lisbon: Belem Walking Tour with Jeronimos Monastery". My guide was Luis. He has a very deep knowledge of the hsitory and architecture of all the sites - Jeronimos Monastery, Monument to the Discoveries and the Belem Tower. He was very clear and easy to follow. I strongly recommend him as a guide.

Excellent tour for families! Luis made it amazing :-) - Our family of three had a wonderful time on this Belém walking tour. Luis was an outstanding guide - very knowledgeable, easy to understand, and you can tell he truly enjoys his job. His passion and clear explanations made the whole experience so much richer. The tour was well organized from start to finish. We began at the Jerónimos Monastery, where Luis guided us through the history and details we would have completely missed on our own. Then we stopped at the famous Pastéis de Belém for the original egg tarts - such a treat. After that, we visited the Monument to the Discoveries and learned about Portugal’s explorers, and finally ended at the Belém Tower with beautiful views and great stories to wrap up the day. Everything was smooth, informative, and enjoyable. We left feeling like we truly understood the area and its history. Highly recommend this tour, and especially Luis! He made it memorable for all of us :-)

A very informative tour. The pastries- Delicious - Very informative tour. Much better than wandering around without hearing the history. The Monastery was interesting. Part of the tour, the tower, was having construction and we did not know this until we were on the tour. It was also Sunday and we were not allowed into the church, which we did not know before we were on the tour.
