I booked my visit on my last day in Lisbon. I am so glad I went, it is magnificent and worth the money. They queues moved quite quickly so we were not standing for long. I had read it was one of the most important places in Lisbon to visit and when I googled the Headout website came up

I was able to get the time I needed on the Headout App while waiting in line at the monistary ticket box office. The line was long, but getting the tickets with Headout was a life-saver. The time I needed sold out while we were waiting in line, but I scored them with Headout! Thank you.

Tickets purchased online, no need to go to the ticket office. Easy access to the site. A 5-minute wait for the selected time slot (10:30 a.m.) The tour itself isn’t any more interesting than what you see in all the photos, but it’s still very beautiful.

We were able to purchase last minutes tickets, despite the official website showing nothing available for days. The relatively small fee was worth it to see the ethereal monastery, cathedral, and Vasco da Gama's resting place.

The monastery is magnificent. It’s really nice to stroll through the castle, climb the ramparts, and admire the river from the overlooks—especially from the restaurant where we had our meal.

Unless there was a time slot, it was necessary to wait 25 minutes in a queue. But it's absolutely worth visiting. Everyone who is in Belem should visit it! It's a must for understanding Portugal's history.

See Lisbon from two angles in one outing, pairing a splashy 90-minute Hippotrip tour with time inside the magnificent Jerónimos Monastery in Belém.

Clatter through Lisbon’s hilly streets before your vehicle slips into the Tagus River on a 90-minute amphibious tour with live commentary in English and Portuguese.

Wander through Jerónimos Monastery, Belém’s UNESCO-listed showstopper, where carved cloisters and the church of Santa Maria de Belém reward slow exploration.

Skip the fuss of juggling separate plans with one combo that bundles your Hippotrip ride and monastery visit neatly into a single booking.

A smart pick for first-time visitors wanting a breezy introduction to Lisbon’s riverside neighborhoods alongside one of Belém’s most storied landmarks.

The monastery was breathtaking though we were surprised that none of the security or respect rules were enforced during our visit (large bags everywhere, shorts and uncovered shoulders allowed). Online booking was simple and our wait wasn't long though the addition of shade tents would be nice in the summer if waits are long since the prior day we did see extremely long queues that likely lasted hours.

The place looked really nice. However, the employee at the line was unfriendly, and I stood in the right line for hours, only to be sent to the supposedly correct line when it was my turn. When I pointed out to him that the signs weren’t set up correctly, he ignored it at first and only changed them after several people complained.

Timed ticket entry purchased, venue overcrowded and poorly managed resulting in a 45 minute wait in hot sun after timed entry expectation. Upon exiting the first part of the tour the second part had been closed earlier than posted closure times resulting in our inability to view part of the tour. Highly disappointed and would not recommend this tour.

Getting started

Make your way to Doca de Santo Amaro, hop aboard the bright yellow Hippotrip, and settle in for a breezy 90-minute spin across Lisbon’s streets and the Tagus River.

Hippotrip amphibious sightseeing tour

What to expect

Roll past Lisbon’s waterfront landmarks and lively central neighborhoods before the vehicle glides straight into the Tagus River near Belém with a crowd-pleasing splash.

Features

Live commentary in English and Portuguese packed with local stories, quirky facts, and handy Lisbon insights along the way.

Catch river-level and street-side views of Belém Tower, the Discoveries Monument, the 25 de Abril Bridge, and the towering Cristo Rei statue.

Travel in a fully enclosed amphibious vehicle equipped with life jackets, making the journey smooth, safe, and surprisingly comfortable.

Jerónimos Monastery

What to expect

Jerónimos Monastery is one of Lisbon’s most celebrated landmarks, famed for its elaborate Manueline architecture, soaring cloisters, and centuries-old maritime history. Built in the 16th century near the Tagus River in Belém, this UNESCO-listed monastery is closely tied to Portugal’s Age of Discoveries and explorer Vasco da Gama’s voyages.

Features

Admire the monastery’s Manueline architecture, where maritime motifs, intricate stone carvings, and elaborate details cover nearly every surface.

Stroll through peaceful cloisters and the church of Santa Maria de Belém, known for soaring interiors, elegant arches, and remarkable craftsmanship.

Take time to wander the monastery gardens and explore Belém’s historic riverside streets, pastry shops, and landmark-filled corners independently.

Additional information

Hippotrip amphibious sightseeing tour

Arrive at Doca de Santo Amaro 15–20 minutes before departure so boarding can begin on time.

The tour lasts about 90 minutes with no stops; you remain on board for the full circuit.

An adult must accompany children aged 2 to 16 years throughout the experience.

Hippotrip commentary is live in Portuguese and English with the guide alternating between languages, rather than using recorded audio headsets.

Tours may be adjusted or canceled if river or weather conditions affect amphibious operations.

Jerónimos Monastery

Be respectful of the religious nature of the monastery during your visit.

The church is a part of Jerónimos Monastery and offers free entry, but you must join a separate line to enter.

The monastery is a crowd-puller, and wait times can stretch to 2 hours during peak hours. Plan smart: arrive early and book tickets online in advance.

Entry is free for Portuguese residents on Sundays and public holidays, which often leads to larger crowds. If possible, plan your visit on another day.

The Jerónimos Monastery remains closed on Monday, 1st January, Easter Sunday, 1st May, and 25th December.
