Thank you, OneDayTours, for an adventure I'll never forget. Together with my husband we booked an experience to the iconic surfing sport of Portugal, combined with the most popular coastal cities, Peniche and Nazare, and got a great opportunity to see Portugal off the beaten paths. Don't miss your chance to try it!

Exceptional experience for foodies with One Day Tours. While traveling in Portugal, I got an authentic taste of the country from savoring wine in Setubal to exploring hidden spots of the region, every moment was a delight. I can't wait to embark on other adventures. Love it!

Highly recommended! I truly enjoyed Lisbon's downtown walking tour. The guides are professional and funny. The itinerary is well-thought to the smallest detail. I had a short time in Lisbon but could fit in uncountable impressions thanks to the One Day Tours team. Wish you growth and thankful clients!:)

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you visit Tomar in half a day?

Half a day is too short to visit and truly appreciate the attractions in the city. There are many and they are spread across the entire city. This will mean rushing through them, which will defeat the purpose of the visit. 2-3 days is the recommended period for a worthwhile visit to Tomar. This will give you ample time to learn about each attraction as you explore the city. Some of these attractions need some explaining to be done so that you appreciate their significance in shaping Tomar into what it is today.

Is Tomar too touristy?

Tomar is a unique tourist destination, that even with the many tourists visiting the city every day, you don't get that overwhelming touristy feeling. In the streets, you won't fail to notice tourists, especially those on group tours, but everybody else seems to go on with their business unaffected. This can be attributed to the presence of many different attractions, which help avoid a scenario where many people are gathered at the same place at the same time to see the same attraction.

Is Tomar walkable?

Tomar is walkable, and walking is the best way to explore its attractions. The city has walk paths and cobblestone streets from the past, and walking on them takes you centuries back. You will also better appreciate attractions like the aqueduct when you walk along it. The green park in the city is also well explored on foot, and there are numerous walking paths for this. Just remember to bring comfortable walking shoes and drinking water to keep you hydrated.

Is Tomar safe?

Tomar is a safe tourist destination. There are few to no incidents of crime reported, and if any, they are petty crimes like snatching. The police in the city do a good job by making frequent patrols, and this gives you confidence that you are safe. The locals are also friendly, and the warmth of their smiles is always reassuring. They are also very willing to assist with anything whenever they can. But as a precaution, make sure you are always aware of your surroundings and avoid walking alone in secluded places.

What are the must-see attractions in Tomar for private tours?

Due to its decorated past, Tomar has lots of attractions that visitors from all over the world come to see and appreciate. Most of these medieval buildings and monuments are from the times of the Knights Templar, who founded the city.

  • The Convent of Christ. This was the Knights Templar headquarters.
  • The Aqueduct of Pegões. This aqueduct supplied water to the Convent of Christ.
  • The Mata Nacional dos Sete Montes. This is a green park located in the city. This is the city's lungs.

What dishes are a must-try in Tomar?

Most of these foods are prepared with recipes hundreds of years old, giving you a taste of what the early inhabitants of the city consumed.
