BELÉM TOUR

A tale from a time when the sea stood as a frontier to the unknown and the shaping of Sub-Saharan Africa a puzzle many devoted their entire life attempting to resolve. A time of navigators that at the end of the sea found the Americas guided by little more than stars and wits; driven by duty and a resolve to improve their lives. Men that shaped the start of globalisation and an empire to rule it, with holds from Brazil to Japan. The Belém tour transports you on a journey through monuments that reflect the grandeur of a sixteen century Portugal, including perfectly conserved UNESCO World Heritage sites, such as the Monastery of Jerónimos where you may eye Vasco da Gama's final resting spot.
