With guaranteed first-time slot access to the Jerónimos Monastery, you'll have time and space to marvel at its stunning architecture as you learn about the explorers who prayed here before their daring voyages. You'll also savor authentic Portuguese custard tarts from the original bakery and discover Belém's most significant landmarks, such as the Monument to the Discoveries and Belém Tower. Every stop along the way is brought to life by expert local guides who share fascinating stories of Portugal's Age of Discoveries.

Your adventure wraps up with a relaxing boat ride back to Lisbon, complete with breathtaking views of the 25th of April Bridge and Cristo Rei statue.
