Hi, I'm Mónica. I like to know the places I visit, to understand a little bit more, the place and people.
So, I'm hoping to show you my hometown, and seduce you to come and return, because it is small, but it has so much history and beauty places to enjoy.
On this tour I will try to show you the main points in the town: Main square (Praça da Republica), the synagogue, the church of St. Francis of Sissi´s, the match box museum, the church of st maria, the church of st iria, and even the gardens (Mouchão and 7 hill garden)... and if you really like to walk, we can climb together to another church (N. Srª da Piedade), and even walk (or by car) go to the Pegões aquaduct.
Monica was excellent Knowledge beyond words Could not have asked for more Thanks Monica
We were surprised that the tour was conducted even though we were just the two of us. Monica is a very professional guide and a very pleasant person. All our questions were answered with a lot of patience.
Mónica is an excellent guide and I would strongly recommend anyone who wants an enjoyable tour with deep knowledge of the historical past of Tomar. We had the tour on 29 April 2025 - the day Portugal experienced a massive blackout. She went above and beyond the role of a guide. She helped store our luggage in her car and tried multiple times to help us buy bread for dinner as stores ran out of bread. She even extended her help to drive us to our destination which eventually was not needed. Monica is a local guide who is passionate, helpful, kind and knowledgeable. Two thumbs up!
We were visiting Tomar for 2 days as part of the Camino Portuguese. Unfortunately Monica was held up and the tour started late. Our friends didn’t wait as they were feeling unwell. However I am glad we ( me and my husband) did. The trip which was to be 2 hours was extended to meet the requirements of the group.
