J'ai beaucoup apprécié l'architecture du monastère et son histoire très riche; la durée de la construction du monastère qui est courte m'a beaucoup étonné également

The monastery is beautiful and in very good condition. Francisco, our guide, was full of interesting information. He was first class and made the visit memorable.

We thoroughly enjoyed the Jerónimos Monastery Skip-the-Line Guided Tour, beautifully delivered in Spanish by our guide, Stefano Cannavacciuolo. He gave us a deeply informative look into the origins of the Jerónimos order and the monastery itself. Stefano was an absolute delight—courteous, funny, and highly engaging. Stefano provided wonderful insight into the history of the site, treated us to an exquisite sampling of Pastéis de Belém, and wrapped up the experience perfectly at the Monument to the Discoveries.

Got the ticket with a guided tour because I wanted to have a deeper understanding of the site and I am so glad that Joao is such a fantastic guide! The meeting location was a vast space but he was able to spot us and approached us if we were looking for the tour. He was able to share interesting stories and details of the monastery's history and anything from the floor, walls, cloister and ceilings. Very knowledgeable and has a very pleasant personality! He also took very good photos for you!

Our guide at Jeronimo's Monastery was amazing! He was absolutely wonderful and really took his time and waited for us when the time in the morning had changed and I didn't see the email (luckily we were in route). I can't remember our guides name (It was maybe four letters but unique an maybe started with a J). I wish I couldn give him a shout out. I do have a photo of him, if the company is curious in reaching out. Eitherway, he was amazing and it made for a great tour.

João was an excellent guide. He was patient with everyone and made a special effort to ensure everyone was looked after. His explanations of the Monastery were precise and his story telling was very professional. I think the whole group liked him! The tasting afterwards was very well organised and a nice touch. After the tour, João sent us a list of recommendations and an interesting reading list. A much appreciated touch. Will definitely recommend this tour.
