When my friend Anthony chose Portugal to travel to, I immediately put a Knights of Templar tour on my wish list. This was purely based on what I read about in the DaVinci Code. I was fascinated by the idea of it and proceeded to explore the internet, for how we would do it. Neither one of us are “tour people”, as a rule. I contacted Peter and was charmed by him and the description of the tour, immediately. His beautiful description was only surpassed by the amazing day we spent with Joao.
It was absolutely the best day of our 9 day trip…by far. From the boat ride to the fortress, our visit to Tomar where we shared a lovely lunch filled with stimulating conversation, and on to the Main event! Both Anthony and I, being well travelled and in our 60s, agreed that this tour was the highlight of our trip. The history and the architecture, so passionately spoken about by Jaoa. It is a day we will always remember. We were so very impressed, from start to finish. (Being lifelong New Yorkers, it takes a lot to impress us, I would say!)
5 STARS and will be promoting it from this side of the Atlantic. OBRIGADA!
