We are three women at aged 70+ will be in the Lisbon suburb of Belém on Nov 5 of this fall. We would like to make the reservations for the Monastery of Jerónimos at 10:30 AM. We're wondering how we will be able to get tickets from the official website.
We are hoping to visit or see other sights in Belém like the Belém Tower the Monument of the Discoveries, and perhaps the National Coach Museum. Will we be able to make the reservations in advance?
Your input is greatly appreciated
Hi, you can purchase tickets to the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos from the official website: https://mmp.bymeoblueticket.pt/en/event/14759/purchase/395555
Thank you Mary -- this helps us a lots.
The National Coach Museum is in 2 buildings. I only had time to see one of them. A Texas ex-pat bent my ear for an hour in the firat building and I couldn't get away.
The Maritime Museum in Belem is excellent, especially if you are interested in the Portuguese Age of Discoveries and European expansion.
We just got back. Do get your monastery tickets ahead of time. But here is something we didn't bank on -- we went through the monastery and then planned to do the church but it was closed for weddings all afternoon. So I'd try to go early to see the church just in case it's closed at one point. We walked from the Tower (didn't go in), to the Discoveries (didn't go in) to the monastary and then to the coach museum. You don't need to buy coach museum tickets in advance.
We will be going to visit the Belém on the 5 of November (Thursday). We plan to visit Tower at reservation time 9:30 AM, the following the Monastery, and the National Coach Museum, and just see the Discoveries.
DianeM,
"We walked from the Tower (didn't go in), to the Discoveries (didn't go in) to the Monastery and then to the coach museum"
How long did take you walk from the Monastery to Tower and Discoveries?
from the tower to the discoveries was probably 10-15 minutes (flat, sidewalk). From the discoveries to the monastary maybe 5 minutes -- it's just across a big park.
Thank you DianeM.
We took the elevator to the top of the Discoveries Monument, where we had beautiful views of the monastery and the seaport and Belem Tower. We did not go up in the Tower because the lines were so long. There were no lines for the Discoveries Museum elevator.
Hi Hang
