Registration was easy, but at the time of payment there was a glitch, as if the payment hadn't gone through. We checked our bank account and nothing indicated a payment. We tried again and succeeded. But then, to our surprise, we received 4 vouchers. So we paid twice. I submitted a complaint, but didn't know how to answer all the questions. I was only able to open everything on the day of the visit.

Our tour guide Beatrice was so friendly and knowledgeable on our jeronimos Monastery tour (english speaking) in Portugal. She was caring and relaxed and instantly made everyone comfortable. The headsets were great and I could hear everything she said. I would highly recommend this tour and also Beatrice as the tour guide! I would use headout again and highly recommend this tour company to my friends.

We met our guide Luis at the designated meet up spot and enjoyed a very educational tour of the monastery, pasteis tasting & production tour, and waterfront walk to the Monument of the Discoveries. Luis was so informative about everything and the skip-the-line feature of our ticket was a true time saver and value. This booking was a good tour!

Buying our tickets before the visit saved us time (and standing in the hot sun) to get into the wonderful monastery. I highly recommend planning your visit and buying tickets in advance; that day they were sold out!

Sensational! The monastery's architecture and the centuries of history featured at the attraction were well worth it. The convenience of online tickets also contributed to a pleasant, safe visit to the Jerónimos Monastery.

Amazing cloisters and church. The lien can vary wildly and we were glad we bought the tickets in advance as they were sold out. The church portion of the tour is free and a separate line and worth a visit.

Your ticket gets you through the doors of Jerónimos Monastery, Lisbon's awe-inspiring, UNESCO-listed architectural masterpiece.

Spot nautical motifs, beautiful cloisters, and even Vasco da Gama’s tomb—every detail here tells a story from Portugal’s seafaring past.

The monastery is just stunning - the architecture and celebration of the exploration and the role of the monastery in that past time was really well presented throughout. We went later in the afternoon and it was a lovely temperature and had wonderful light for photos at that time. The line was quite long and disorganised to get in, but it moved relatively quickly in the end.

The Jerónimos Monastery is a truly beautiful and impressive place. Its architecture and historical atmosphere make it a must-see when visiting Lisbon. It attracts many visitors and is an important part of the city’s cultural heritage and tourism. The visit was very enjoyable, and the monastery definitely adds a lot to the charm and appeal of Lisbon.

The architecture is beautiful, but the queue to enter in the blazing sun (32 degrees in the shade) was terrible, with a waiting time of over an hour. 20 euros for a ticket and we only got to see the courtyard and a part of the church. So, we waited over an hour to get in for just 30 minutes of sightseeing. That is why I have mixed feelings.

The courtyard is indeed very beautiful with great architecture, but still quite small. The value for money just wasn't right for us. But apparently, restoration work is also underway at the moment (as of September 2026).

The Jerónimos Monastery stands as a masterpiece of Manueline architecture, built in the early 16th century to commemorate Portugal’s Age of Discovery. This monumental site is both a symbol of national identity and a resting place for key figures in Portuguese history.

Features

Southern Portal: Admire the elaborate southern entrance, renowned for its intricate stonework and maritime motifs that reflect Portugal’s seafaring legacy.

Cloisters: Walk through the two-level cloisters, where detailed arches and sculpted columns showcase the artistry of the Manueline style.

Church of Santa Maria de Belém: Visit the church’s nave, home to the tombs of explorer Vasco da Gama and poet Luís de Camões, both central to Portugal’s cultural heritage.

Chapter House and Refectory: Discover the chapter house and refectory, each featuring unique vaulted ceilings and decorative elements that highlight the monastery’s architectural innovation.

Upgrades: Deepen your understanding with an optional audio guide, or enjoy a richer narrative with a skip-the-line guided tour. These options are ideal for those who want to uncover hidden stories and architectural significance in detail.

What to bring

To stay protected and hydrated, bring a hat and water, as summer temperatures can rise above 25ºC.

What's not allowed

Strict dress code: Off-shoulder tops, dresses, and knee-high shorts are not recommended.

Visitors are not allowed to photograph some parts of the monastery.

Keep in mind that food, beverages, large bags, or backpacks are not allowed on this experience.

Accessibility

The lower level is wheelchair accessible, but some areas have cobblestones and can be tricky to navigate.

Wheelchairs are available for rent at the entrance.

Additional information

Going with the upgrade? The audio guide will be accessible via an app. Download instructions will be shared with your ticket. Just make sure to pack your headphones!

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.

To avoid the rush hour madness, we recommend the guided tour with 9:30am priority access.

Entry is free for Portugal 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, January 1, Easter Sunday, May 1, and December 25.

Your voucher will be emailed to you shortly.
