Tomar, Batalha & Alcobaça Day Trip

At the scheduled time, we will pick you up from your hotel in Coimbra and head to Tomar, followed by visits to Batalha and Alcobaça.

After approximately 50 minutes of driving, we will arrive in Tomar, known as the Knights Templar City. Here, we will visit the castle of Tomar and the Convent of Christ, built in the style of the rotunda of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

Following this visit, you will have free time to sample traditional Portuguese cuisine at a local restaurant at your leisure.

Next, we will travel to Batalha to visit the Monastery of Santa Maria da Vitoria, notable for its architectural and historical significance. Its construction marked the consecration of João I as king of Portugal, and it is recognized as one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal.

Our last stop will be the Alcobaça Monastery, the first Gothic building in Portugal and a Unesco World Heritage Site since 1989. We will tour its interior, including the dining room, kitchen, dormitory, chapter house, and cloisters.

After eight hours, we will return to your hotel in Coimbra.
