Tour description

This tour is a spicy Portugal history tour, where we will touch some points of local timeline with a special focus towards mysterious figure of Marques de Pombal (the 'Enlightened despot' during whose reign happened Lisbon's Earthquake), his undergrounds, and ties with local freemasonry. What was his 'hidden knowledge' ? Did he sell out his soul to the devil? Or was a worker of good? Take this tour and stroll around mysterious heart of Lisbon, which was decision making center of the Empire.

 

Ever heard of Knights Templars? Jesuits? How all this fits-in together in Lisbon in this story?..

 

Our goal is to enveil curtain of superficial facts, and connect the dots between different layers of facts and points of view! Looking forward to see you on this tour!

NOTE: This is not a tour for children neither just "spooky stories"
