Santarem Guided Tour
We will meet up at the time of your choice in the Garden of the Republic to begin a guided tour of Santarém, a route that will take us to various places and corners.
We will walk through the so-called Gothic capital of Portugal until we reach the church of Santo Milagro, associated with an event from 1266. Close to this temple is the church of Santa Maria da Graça, where we will view the tomb of Pedro Álvarez Cabral, discoverer of Brazil.
We will also pass the convent of São João de Alporão and the 70-foot high Pumpkin Tower, listed as a National Monument. You will learn how the landmark got its name.
Our visit will include the medieval gate of São Tiago and we will arrive at the Portas do Sol garden, where remnants of the old Muslim citadel wall can be found. The panoramic views of the Tagus River from the viewpoint will be notable.
After a two-hour tour, we will conclude the experience in Portas do Sol.
