    Excellent company and tour guide

    Francisco, my guide was outstanding. His English was excellent. He was easy to understand and he took me to all the places that were of interest to me. He was enthusiastic about the history of the country and truly loves his work. I highly recommend his company. it was a last-minute booking and everything turned out great. I was a single woman traveling alone and felt very safe with Francisco.

    Amazing tour with Francisco

    Our family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed the Knights Templar tour, and our guide, Francisco, made it extra special. His wealth of historical knowledge is astounding! We asked many questions and all were answered. Our private tour allowed us to spend as much time as we wanted at each of the stops. We highly recommend!!

    Lisbon: Knights Templar Legacy and Tomar - All Tickets Included: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.

    How much does Lisbon: Knights Templar Legacy and Tomar - All Tickets Included cost?

    +

    Prices start at $113 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Lisbon: Knights Templar Legacy and Tomar - All Tickets Included take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.

    Is Lisbon: Knights Templar Legacy and Tomar - All Tickets Included worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Lisbon: Knights Templar Legacy and Tomar - All Tickets Included?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Lisbon: Knights Templar Legacy and Tomar - All Tickets Included suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Lisbon: Knights Templar Legacy and Tomar - All Tickets Included?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Lisbon: Knights Templar Legacy and Tomar - All Tickets Included start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Lisbon?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, Escape Hunt Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Lisbon?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Lisbon?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
