Belém is the perfect place to learn about Portugal's Golden Age of Discovery, where the 15th-century explorers set sail to discover new worlds. Take in views of the 17th century Belém Palace, home to the Portuguese Royal Family for centuries and a prime example of English Baroque design.
Belém is famed for its remarkable UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the 16th century Torre de Belém, a thin, stone tower that has become one of Portugal's most photographed monuments. The gothic Jerónimos Monastery also claims UNESCO credentials, with its stunning Manueline architecture.
On this all-inclusive tour, learn of Portugal's rich Naval history and its age of world exploration in the Belem neighborhood. See the UNESCO-listed Torre de Belém and the Padrão dos Descobrimentos (from the outside) and enjoy a fully guided tour of Jerónimos Monastery Church and Cloister. You will also get to taste the original Pastéis de Belém (pastel de nata) pastry! Finally, enjoy a Cruise along the Tagus river - see the 25th of April bridge and the Cristo Rei statue - accompanied by your tour guide.
