El recorrido es muy básico, aunque es cierto que Belem tampoco tiene mucho atractivo salvo dos monumentos, el monasterio ( largas colas ) y los pastelitos ( mas colas ) La guia nos informò del “precio” del FreeTour antes de comenzar y exigió el pago al finalizar Jamas en un FreeTour me habia pasado

The tour is very basic, although it is true that Belem does not have much attraction except for two monuments, the monastery (long queues) and the pastries (more queues). The guide informed us of the “price” of the FreeTour before starting and demanded payment at the end. This had never happened to me on a FreeTour.

Sucede a menudo que algunos participantes obvian la necesidad de realizar un aporte al final del recorrido. Por este motivo, los guías pueden hacer recomendaciones acerca de cuál es la propina acostumbrada. Aun así, los participantes son libres de aportar más o menos, si así lo desean. Sentimos si alguno se sintió incomodado en algún momento. Translate this opinion into English.

It often happens that some participants ignore the need to make a contribution at the end of the tour. For this reason, guides may make recommendations about the customary tip. However, participants are free to contribute more or less if they wish. We apologize if anyone felt uncomfortable at any point. Opinion translated. Show original.

La guida ci ha illustrato la storia del quartiere, facendo tappa al monastero e al monumento alle scoperte. Purtroppo la torre di belem è in ristrutturazione e quindi avvisami terminato in anticipo il tour. Mi sarebbe piaciuto sapere qualcosa di più dei cambiamenti della città in quella zona anche in tempi più recenti

Martina, la nostra guida, è stat molto disponibile e competente; ci ha raccontato aneddoti e curiosità difficilmente reperibili su guide o on line non tralasciando di commuoversi al racconto del rovescio della medaglia dell’epoca d’oro portoghese… Bel giro e buona compagnia. Grazie.

Hola hicimos la actividad con Jerlin fue muy amable y servicial . Teníamos el tour a las 11:00 y cuando llegamos ese guía no estaba en la plaza .

Hi, we did the activity with Jerlin. She was very kind and helpful. We were scheduled to start the tour at 11:00, but when we arrived, the guide wasn't in the plaza.

Qué pasada!!! Carolina fue una guía maravillosa que nos contó un montón de curiosidades e historia sobre Belém. Nos llevó a probar los originales Pasteis de Belém y tuvo toda la razón con que eran completamente diferentes a cualquier pastel de nata que hubiéramos comido antes. Además su punto de vista como historiadora fue completamente clave!! Se preocupó todo el tiempo por nosotros y por mantenernos a la sombra y eso se agradece. Un tour genial y mejor aún gracias a ella. Translate this opinion into English.

What a blast!!! Carolina was a wonderful guide who told us tons of interesting facts and history about Belém. She took us to try the original Pasteis de Belém and was absolutely right about how they were completely different from any pastel de nata we'd ever had before. Plus, her perspective as a historian was absolutely key! She was always concerned about us and keeping us in the dark, and that was appreciated. A great tour, made even better thanks to her.

Hicimos el tour con Juan Galgo y nos lo explicó todo muy bien. Recomiendo no hacer el tour el lunes porque la iglesia estaba cerrada y es de las cosas más bonitas para ver. La torre de belem también estaba en obras y no pudimos verla, pero Juan compensó esto con historia y anécdotas curiosas. Translate this opinion into English.

We took the tour with Juan Galgo, and he explained everything very well. I recommend not taking the tour on Monday because the church was closed, and it's one of the most beautiful sights to see. The Belém Tower was also under construction, so we couldn't see it, but Juan made up for it with interesting history and anecdotes. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fatto tour oggi nel quartiere di Belem con Antonella. Ci ha spiegato tutta la storia in modo meticoloso coinvolgendoci al meglio. Molto brava e preparata. Peccato che la torre di Belem è in ristrutturazione. Avremmo preferito vederla senza impalcatura. Fortuna che la guida è stata anche molto brava a illustrarcela lo stesso. Consiglio vivamente!
