Travel back in time to the days of the Knights Templar with this 8-hour, guided tour. Join us as we visit some of the most important monuments associated with one of the most intriguing and enigmatic military orders the world has ever seen.

We will pick you up at your hotel or accommodation in Lisbon and drive you to the Convent of Christ, originally a Templar stronghold that later became a Roman Catholic convent after this military order ceased to exist in the 14th century.

Lisbon was awesome as was the Island Maderia. One of the issues that upset me was the fact that the tour manager assumed that all of us had cell phones. He was texting all of his directions to everyone. I told him that wouldn't work with me. I don't own a cell phone. He did start giving some directions at night verbally, but I still didn't get all of his directions that he texted to everyone else.
Beautiful countries, wonderful people.
Please just allow more time for personal exploring and shopping! Our your director was excellent! The local tour guides were so knowledgeable and fun and our National tour guide in Morocco was a pleasant surprise. He helped to make sure our time in Morocco was flawless.
