Nice place to visit

Nature with a human touch

Ok

Ok

Ok

A picturesque surprise.

Its a must

This is an amazing place at the heart of Montes Torozos in Tierra de Campos. Beautiful Walls and a lovely place to watch the sunset from

Small medieval town behind a high wall

Nice and atmospheric bar, but toilets not good. Otherwise a good place to catch your breath.

A mazing little town, worth a visit,i want to go a gain.

Nice place you must come and visit it

Quint little village. Worth a walk around.

Enormous and beautiful

So I don't want to give it a one star because it's not the Lagoon's fault that it was completely dried up when we visited. The buildings and ruins were very neat and well maintained. We had come to visit because of a book listing it under 1001 natural wonders to see and we're disappointed that the lagoon was missing and wasn't drawing all the birds that it usually does. Maybe next time!

Went there to see the Great bustard and yes 14 on a field near the road. Also a few other species. Missing a bit of visitor info in English.

It is great. The guys in La Casa del Parque are incredibly helpful and willing to help. The paths through the whole area and the observation cabins are very well kept. We got to see lots of different birds. I highly recommend it.

Very disappointed 🙁 Can't give even one star. Dogs are not permitted, some part of our family was left behind with dog. It's not a lagun it's a puddle with rubbish all over the place.

Great birding area at the center of the Iberian Peninsula. In winter there are thousands of Geese including Pink-footed Geese and maybe other species as well. The surrounding dryland areas are home of some specialities such as the Great Bustard (biggest population of the peninsula) or the Black-bellied Sandgrouse among others. It is easily combined with a visit to other nearby birding spots suxh as the Laguna de la Nava.

Great visit for birdwatching either in summer or winter with close views of great Bustards and wetland birds

excellent place to observe and photograph birs not only in the winter but through the year

A fascinating place where unique things have travelled in time and allow us to have a glimpse at them. It shows how different medieval churches where from what we can see now, and how vibrating that society was. A must see.

A beautiful historic collegiate church in Toro. There are audio guides, and you can climb up the tower for a spectacular view of Toro and the beautiful area through which the river the Duero flows.

A great place to visit in week days and week ends. Nice people and nice view. Fun times in nearby restaurants. A very historic place to visit

Church and views of the famous Battle of Toro that took place in 1476. Church is beautiful but there is an admission fee.

Really pretty church with fantastic views of the valley below. Definitely a must visit if your in Toro.

Make sure you take the stairs up and checkout the wrap around terrace views

We went some local lady told us, thank to her. We enjoy very much.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful view of the Rio Duero. With a small circular hiking trail. (Original) Schöne Aussicht auf den Rio Duero. Mit kleinem Rundwanderweg.

Although it is not in the class of the great cathedrals of Spain such as Toledo, Salamanca and Leon it is still well worth a visit. Located along the banks of the Duero and where the Caminos de Plata and Levanter meet, this 12th Century Romanesque construction was completed in an astonishing 27 years. It boasts some particularly attractive structures including its altar, chapels and domelike ceilings (pictures included).

At night it is more glorious

Very nice visit across catedral. Audio guide provide simple short overview Missing more deep guide

This is a beautifully preserved, ancient cathedral that hosts a myriad of fascinating pieces of art in its small interior. Opened in 1174, it is a wonderful example of Romanesque architecture in Spain. Although it includes important changes from the 16th century, you can feel the antiquity of this church as you walk about in its interior. It is, however, most recognised from its exterior appearance. The cathedral overlooks the Duero river, and its bell tower and dome have become inseparable symbols of the town of Zamora. Its location, at the end of the historical downtown, invites visitors to walk through the city before arriving to it. We paid no entry fee, it was actually quite warm inside despite a freezing day outside, and there were available leaflets with some handy information. Definitely, a must-see visit if you pass by Zamora!

Nice cathedral to visit the entrance is quite expensive for 5 euro person but all in all very good

Zamora is a city in Castile and Leon, Spain, it lies on a rocky hill in the northwest, near the frontier with Portugal and crossed by the Douro river, which is some 50 kilometres downstream as it reaches the Portuguese border. With its 24 Characteristic Romanesque style churches of the 12th and 13th centuries it has been called a "museum of Romanesque art". Zamora is the city with the most Romanesque churches in all of Europe.

Avila a well preserved and historic city with a wall for the ages.

An amazing fortress with views into the countryside is stunning. I’m really surprised entrance is free. I shouldn’t be given the fact that that a lot of European money was invested into the structure. Still an amazing gift to tourist and pilgrims of Zamora.

Fascinating visit to a castle very much altered over the ages. The visit was made much more interesting by the young man on the gate who went out of his way to explain the history and in English too. Many thanks.

Beautifully preserved castle with incredible views of the city. This is a free experience and the man working at the front was extremely knowledgeable about the castle and it's history.

An incredible piece of medieval architecture. Unfortunately, when I arrived, they were just closing, but I believe access into the castle and viewing its interiors and parapets is free. The views from the castle and surrounding Park are amazing. There was a festival on almost I was there and many food and beverage stalls and lots of people enjoying the sun and the music. There was also a a mobile bathroom facility, which was great. It seems in Spain that public bathrooms are not supported or supplied so finding one is a real boon.

The Castle of Zamora is an 11th-century medieval fortress located next to the Cathedral in the old town. It played a key role in the defense of the Kingdom of León and still preserves parts of its original structure, including walls and the Keep Tower. From the top, visitors can enjoy great views of the Duero River and the city. Entrance is free, making it a perfect quick stop while exploring the historic center.

Historical & Medieval Castle This is a great castle beautiful and well preserved. This is the real Spain, this castle shows how in the past centuries you had to protect yourself against invaders and make sure your walls were strong and thick. Now it is easily accessible to visit and his well preserved. We really enjoyed the visit!

We went there quite spontaneously and had the big luck of seeing a free little introductory presentation about the castle, the city and its history from the guard there. The ruins are very interesting and you could see the passion the guard had for history and his town! Lovely visit, would absolutely recommend!!

A beautiful cathedral. On if two! It is the ‘new’ one but still of an age and richly decorated. Even though it was a Sunday it was closed as it was between masses. The outside it still worthy of visiting with its elaborate carving. Several of the statues have had their heads removed which happened during the war with the French. A stunning part of a stunning town. Don’t forget to look for the astronaut which has been carved into some of the renovations which are in a lighter material.

The entry fee is 10 € without discount but well worth the price to maintain this incredible cathedral. The high altar and choir are amazing as well as the grandeur of the entire church(es). Lovely to be able to see the difference between the new and old so easily. The use of the audio guide (incl. with ticket), a guidebook or a real guide is helpful to understand the architecture, history and artwork of the cathedral. For a different view of the cathedral, do the Ieronimus Tower Tour. Entrance to the tower is on the other side of the cathedral.

It's one of 2 cathedrals in Salamanca and is the seat of the diocese of Salamanca. Built between 1533 and 1733 with mix of Gothic and Baroque styles - one of the largest Cathedrals in Spain with one of the tallest bell tower. We visited in the night and stayed on to the night when they had an Easter procession in the streets. Popular place that is not free entry. Easy walking to get there, but many people visit it so you have to be patient.

Good set of cathedrals, very unusual arrangement. Nothing too different or unusual with the internal décor, much like other medieval cathedrals. Still well worth a visit.

Spectacular cathedral in Salamanca, Spain. You must try to visit the place a historical and architectural beauty. Taking services of guide is advisable then you can see and understand the period of construction by different regime. Amazing.

When in Salamanca, this has got to be one of your sites to see, both the old & new! Be sure to look closely at the carvings around the doors & at the top of columns! I could have spent all day creating a treasure hunt of cool findings there!

A must see place. Worth visiting both to I appreciate the two. I let you decide which you like. But you have to buy 2 tickets for both and get aludo guide 10 euro each

¡Mi bella Salamanca! 🥰 What an amazing experience while attending La Universidad de Salamanca over the course of two summers!

The first university in Spain. The story of find a frog on the stone scrupture becomes world famous.

Salamanca University is a treasure trove of history and academia. The ancient lecture halls and ornate architecture transport you to another era. Walking through its historic corridors, I couldn't help but feel a sense of scholarly inspiration. The charming courtyards and vibrant student life added a delightful modern twist to this living piece of history. There is a 5 euro entrance fee gor student (don’t remember for the rest) but I have to say didn’t expect this nonsense payment! Try to find the frog in the facade otherwise you wont succeed in your exams 🤭

This is one of the oldest universities in Europe, and the sandstone facade is insanely detailed. Everyone tries to find the tiny frog hidden in the carvings—it’s a bit of a local legend. If you’re into history or architecture, definitely pop inside too—it’s full of charm and stories.

Students still rub the carved frog on the facade for exam luck, polishing its patina daily. The lecture halls' wooden desks bear ink stains from 16th-century scholars. The library's chains once secured priceless manuscripts. A beautiful historic place.

It's beautiful and very old, yes, but it's not exactly what I think of when I hear tourist attraction. It was a very brief sight to see, at it's exactly what you'd expect a university to be...just old. Not saying it was bad, it's just not something I'd recommended to a friend to spend their time on.

A beautiful university. The third oldest in the world. Tuition for a master’s degree, in English, for international students, one tenth of what it cost in the US (one third compared to State universities).

Wow! And Wow again. The Cathedral was built in 12-14 centuries, and it is not trying to look modern. The feeling of time is everywhere, from the central nave to the cloister and the chapels in the cloister. Highly recommended to everyone who is interested to learn more about history.

Catedral Vieja or Old Cathedral was founded by Bishop Jerome of Perigord (10??-1120), and was built in XII-XV centuries, and it is expressively Late-Romanesque/Early Gothic in style. High altar was created in 1430-1450 and its 58 panels were painted by Italian painters Dello Delli (1403-1470) and his brothers Nicola Delli and Sansone Delli. The population of Salamanca was growing very quickly in the XV century because of its university, and Old Cathedral couldn't admit all believers. That is why King Fernando, the Catholic (1452-1516), who was the Fernando II of Aragon and Fernando V of Castile commissioned construction of new cathedral. It was built between 1513 and 1733 right over the old cathedral. That's why today you can see old cathedral only from the belfry. The project of the cathedral was designed by Spanish architects Anton Egas and Alonso Rodrigues. The first stone of New Cathedral was laid in 1512 by Francisco de Cabrera y Bobadilla (14??-1529) the Bishop of Salamanca. His splendid tomb is in the New Cathedral. Salamanca, Castile and Leon, Kingdom of 🇪🇸 Spain 🇪🇸. December 1, 2014.

This is the older of the churches that make up Salamanca Cathedral. The Old Cathedral dates back to the 12th century when founded by Bishop Jerome Perigord. It was built during the 12th and 13th centuries and is mainly Romanesque in architecture with some Gothic features including the vaulted nave. The Old Cathedral is dedicated to Santa Maria de la Sede (St. Mary of the See). The Old Cathedral can be visited as part of a combined ticket (€10 per adult) that includes entry into the New Cathedral, cloister & historic chapels as well as the Episcopal Palace exhibition rooms just across from the cathedrals at Plaza Juan XXIII. Highlights for us were the frescos in St. Martin's Chapel and the beautiful ancient chapel of St. Barbara. However, most impressive is the apse altarpiece, a cycle of 53 scenes known collectively as the Final Judgement by Italian painter Dello Delli. This is a remarkable cathedral treasure, worth spending some time to enjoy. The cloister area was mainly closed during our visit but we enjoyed the small museum setup with a handful of rooms containing cathedral antiquity and artworks. Then, through the shop and over to the Episcopal Palace to see the exhibition rooms and artworks there. That wraps up your visit to the Salamanca Cathedral complex.

Amazing building. It's great being able to visit the old and new cathedral. Don't forget to visit the tower (ieronimus)

Beautiful Catedral and visiting the interior is worthy!!

The Old Cathedral of Salamanca (Cathedral Vieja de Salamanca in Spanish) is one of two existing cathedrals in the city of Salamanca, Castile and Leon, Spain. It was founded by Bishop Jerónimo de Perigord. Its construction began in the first third of the 12th century, continuing until the 14th century. Its architecture has Romanesque and Gothic influences. It is dedicated to Santa Maria da Sede. The cathedral has a Latin cross plan and three Romanesque naves, topped by Gothic transitional vaults. The main door, although it has lost part of its original artistic value, still conserves two statues, representing scenes of the Annunciation, one on each side.According to a legend, the San Martín Chapel or Olive Oil Chapel, where the ports of oils that were later used in the lamps of the Cathedral, served as a refuge for Franco, a general of the time. It is also worth mentioning that in the Old Cathedral there was a dome that became known by popular as the Torre do Galo, this mainly due to a weather vane that had in the crown.

beautiful outside but definitely not worth 10€ entry in my opinion

Absolotely lovely building, some great art deco stuff, my only but was lots off dolls. No pictures allowed inside, but thisnis the outside

This is why you should save all the stuff in your Grandmother's house after she passes: people will pay good money to wander around and gawk at her quirky collections! You don't lose much (just the fabulous courtyard) by not being able to take pictures: it looks much better from the street & bridge lit up at night.

If you're an Art Deco and Art Nouveau enthusiast, this museum is a must-see. After your tour, you can enjoy a snack in the lovely café.

I saw a poster board advertising this museum, which had a photo of the glass ceiling. I had to go see it! I absolutely loved this art deco museum! Lots of wonderful items on display. The glass ceiling, when you enter the museum, is stunning. I loved seeing the porcelain dolls, fans, jewelry, glassware, etc. You can't take any pictures, which was disappointing. I was hoping the gift shop would have a book on items that were on display, but no, they didn't have any. At least I took a photo of the poster board for my memories.

I was sort of there to get some photos of the building but not allowed. Strict no photo or video. I can understand the no photos of the artworks but the building should be allowed. It still had some great stuff.

This must be our favourite place in Salamanca. Every corner had something interesting and beautiful but we especially loved the Lalique glass and the dancing figurines. The curator of the exhibitions has done a fantastic job. The dancers were lit like they were on stage and seemed to be moving; truly breathtaking. The café served simple but tasty sandwiches and the Caffè de Lis was yummy. Around a wonderful experience and a very stylish one. The shop was rather generic and doesn't have many items related to the exhibits, which was a little disappointing. Perhaps there is copyright issues. This does not detract from the visit. Do not miss coming here

Great museum with very extensive art work from the Art Deco and Art Nouveau periods. Picture and filming is not allowed which is a bit of a shame. The cafe is superb with a art Deco interior

Interesting visit, but honestly what you'll see is not worth the price. The wildlife is rarely present and the trip is very small (2 miles each way). The whole trip is entirely dependent on the crew presentation for any meaning, and even then you'll rarely even understand it. Don't do it for the free PORTO wine at the end, it is very low quality (and they don't even show you which brand(s) are available.

Unless you speak Spanish or Portuguese don't bother with the boat trip. They give you a map/information leaflet. Absolutely minimal English account of each feature on the trip. The guide gave extensive accounts of each feature in Spanish and Portuguese . We asked for some English commentary but the guide said she would only give it in the 2 languages mentioned. We spoke to her afterwards in English. She said they were hoping to have an English commentary with ear phones in the future. Even a printed paragraph in English would have been very easy to do , can't understand why they did not provide this. The scenery was spectacular but a waste of money overall.

It's only for old people and kids. The drive on the river is really nice but the only tell you stuff in Spanish and Portuguese. Half of it is just a cheap cassette tape they play for you. The port tasting is a waste of plastic cups. You got not even five minutes to fill those cups from the tap. There is no explanation whatsoever and all the people just standing in the way so there s no reaching those taps. Stuff seemed to be really in a hurry to finish the program. Birds looked nice but not happy. I am pretty sure they rather be free in nature than locked and shown off to tourists. I am pretty sure there are better ways to explore duoro. Wouldn't recommend this.

An amazingly conceived and presented tour! The crew immerses you in the Douro Valley from the beginning and points out the highlights of the area throughout. It's incredibly varied in things of interest, but you never feel lost or overwhelmed, thanks to the crew. You have the chance to see some spectacular and tall cliffs, ancient areas of cultivation, waterfalls (usually dry in summer), eagle nests, and even eagles themselves - if you're lucky! Strongly recommended!

The experience is great no doubt, but the value of 18€ per person for a cruise ride is higher than the time spend.

18€/adult and 9€/child up to 10 yo. The tour last an hour, explanation are given in Portugese and spanish., Not any other language. Every one must remain seated and listen to the guide....we felt like pupils at school. There is no much to see

First: there is no English tour available, only Portugese and Spanish. So we couldn't understand much of the tour, even though it seemed very interesting. The website is available in English, so we felt this was very misleading, as it isn't mentioned anywhere (I specifically looked before we booked the tour) that there's no English guide. Second: you don't actually see anything. The scenery is beautiful of course, with magnificent rock walls on both side of the river, but the only "wildlife" we saw, was plankton under a microscope. I get that with nature and animals, there are never any guarantees, but combined with the fact that the guide didn't speak English (and no, the little "brochure" was little help) this was just an expensive boat ride for us. Third: there's free porto at the end of the trip (self-serve) and people threw themselves on it. I don't see the point of porto in an "international" biological research centre (before noon even). Lastly: I felt really sad for the lonely otter in the tiny enclosure at the entrance. The animal was clearly disturbed, swimming to and fro, and trying to climb up in the corners. Combined with the screens and the "theme park-like" music through the speakers, this trip felt more like a trip to a zoo or Disneyland than a trip to an proper scientific facility. Some ecological tips for the future: what's the point of booking online and having a code, if you have to go through the register to receive a paper ticket anyway + there's no filling station for your water bottle.

Unfortunately it was closed to the public at the time I was there, but the church itself is amazing.

Nice cathedral, with some baroque “altares” in te middle of the old town, with a nice museum behind and a great coffee after it near the wall (enjoy a perfect carajillo)

Miranda do Douro is simply one, if not the ONE, of the most interesting places in Portugal. The cathedral can be seen from far away, as it is in the higher spot of the little old town... Followed by the ruins of a castle that suffered an explosion. It's majestic, with a view equaly majestic. A place to visit. Obligatory.

Typical Portuguese church

Very nice to visit alot of history ..beutifull cathedral

Nice but closed for visits at about 19:00

It's a beautiful place to see

It was about a 1 hour tour. The ride down requires a steady driver, lots of narrow points and only enough room for one car sometimes. My brother is in a wheelchair, parts of the walk with his chair we’re ok for wheelchair accessibility, others were very challenging. First 30 minutes are lots of information, they ask you to stay quiet while you ride and stay in your seat. The 30 minute ride back is quiet with freedom to move around more. It’s scenic and nice, but tough drive down on the brakes and nothing to eat there either so make sure you come prepared with snacks. A vending machine is there for drinks. There is a small, grass beach there as well to dip your feet in a bit. You can reach them directly by phone or WhatsApp as well to confirm availability.

(Translated by Google) The boat ride is very nice, the explanations are good, it was too short for me. And at the end we asked them where to eat in the area and they recommended an excellent place with a good price, a success. (Original) El paseo en barco es muy bonito, las explicaciones buenas, se me ha hecho corto. Y al terminar le preguntamos dónde comer x la zona y nos recomendaron un sitio excelente y bien de precio, un acierto.

(Translated by Google) The boat visit is worth it, especially for the information they provide you during the trip. (Original) La visita en barco, vale la pena sobretodo por la información que te van proporcionando durante el viaje.

(Translated by Google) A normal river beach. There's a highly recommended cruise on the Douro. They explain everything to you. (Original) Playa fluvial normal. Hay un crucero por el Duero muy recomendable. Te lo van explicando todo.

(Translated by Google) A place to indulge all your senses. Enjoy a boat trip through the heart of the Arribes. (Original) Sitio para disfrutar de todos los sentidos. Disfruta del viaje en barco por el corazón de los arribes.

(Translated by Google) It is quite worth taking the tour, the boat is very good, perhaps the plastic on the roof should be replaced, it is very old and you can't see anything, it has air conditioning but they put it in, it has big fans and the windows up and the truth is that it was good, we went in the middle of the heat wave, on July 14. The explanations are honorable, the guide said that on the way back she would not explain anything to leave us a moment of relaxation. Well, I prefer that I explain something more!!! Highly recommended. The first parking is for buses, then for caravans and then there are 3 more for cars, so don't park in the first one as you then have to go up the hills. The toilet very clean. (Original) Merece bastante hacer el paseo, el barco está muy bien, quizás el plástico del techo deberían cambiarlo está muy viejo y no se ve nada, tiene aire acondicionado pero lo pusieron, tiene ventiladores grandes y las ventanas subidas y la verdad q se estaba bien, fuimos en plena ola de calor, el 14 de julio. Las explicaciones son de matrícula de honor, la guía decía que a la vuelta no explicaría nada para dejarnos un momento de relax. Pues yo prefiero que expliqué algo más !!! Muy recomendable. El aparcamiento el primero es de bus , después de caravanas y después hay 3 más para coche , así q no aparcar en el primero que después hay q subir las cuestas. El WC muy limpio.

(Translated by Google) A highly advisable activity to do in a group. Boarding the boat at the Aldeadávila pier is highly advisable to better understand the exits of the Duero thanks to the guide's explanations. Las Arribes seen from the Duero River and if you combine them with hiking routes in the area, that is how they are really appreciated very well. (Original) Una actividad muy aconsejable para hacer en grupo. Subir al barco en el embarcadero de Aldeadávila es muy aconsejable para conocer mejor las salidas del Duero gracias a las explicaciones de la guía. Las Arribes vistas desde el río Duero y si las combinas con rutas de senderismo por la zona, pues es como realmente se aprecian muy bien.

This part of the village is a must see when visiting the village. It is the Jewish part of the village and the buildings are very nice. Very historic in nature and I would highly recommend a visit to the Jewish part of the village. You can see small details on the buildings which are worth the photographs and visit.

One of the most beatiful towns in spain. You have everything you need there and more. Amazing place to invest for real estate and airbnb

One of the most charming Jewish Quarters in Spain!

I encountered the old synagogue completely by chance! Hidden away in a side alley. This village and it's old "Juderia", Jewish neighbourhood, is very, very picturesque and the local people enjoy telling history and sharing stories.

Very interesting town. With a little more night lighting of it most relevant places it would look even more beautiful.

Beautiful homemade ice-cream Guy serving was very helpful..me bey only able to speak English. Recommended.

Complitly worth it. Just amazing and beautiful

€35 a night for an amazing central location, right beside the Cathedral and main plaza with shops and morning markets. Small but undeniably charming rooftop terrace with a view. Pleasant service from the lady who runs things, however, I take one star from the room - the shower worked but the head needs replacing. Would stay again, highly recommend.

Very nice hostel in a historic building, in the old part of the city. The room was lovely and clean, en-suite with two single beds. Beds were really comfortable and we slept well. Great value at less than £40 per night. We stayed an extra night because of the torrential rain. Breakfast was available at extra cost. We went out to the Plaza Major.

Very nice hotel, clean, tidy with friendly staff. Its situated just off the main town square, so just right for a short break.

Clean, basic, reasonably warn. But noisy if you have a room facing Street. Helpful staff.

Clean and reasonably priced room. Very good location to the main plaza

(Translated by Google) The hostel is the best I've ever stayed at. Everything is very clean and the beds are large. The lady who was in charge was super friendly and offered everything you needed. The hostel is gloomy inside, but it's fine; nothing to worry about. I only stayed one night, and the only thing I complain about is the people dragging their beds and banging on the walls, but that's a common occurrence in places like this. (Original) El hostal es el mejor que he probado nunca, está todo muy limpio y las camas son grandes. La señora que atendía era super simpática y te ofrecía de todo. El hostal por dentro es tenebroso pero está muy bien, no hay de que preocuparse. Solo he estado una noche, y en lo único que me quejo es en las personas que arrastran las camas y dan golpes en la pared, pero eso es algo que pasa frecuentemente en lugares como estos.

(Translated by Google) It's a very quiet hostel even though it's full... The rooms are clean... And the lady who works there is always attentive and friendly. This is my second time here, and I'll be back next time. (Original) Es un hostal muy tranquilo aunque este lleno... Las habitaciones estan limpias... Y la señora q atiende se preocupa en todo momento ademas de amable. Es la segunda vez q vengo aqui y lo hare la siguiente.

Super historical place

Great view but proceed with care

My favorite castle. Is was half destroyed by the French troops while the retreat. Great views of valley

Sooo quaint ...church needs a little restoration but great views and beautiful stone houses ..and bar 🤪

Sadly the castle has fallen in disrepair. Nevertheless the location is still amazing and so is the small village at the foot of the castle.

It is a must visit in the zone but honestly it is destroid

Beautiful Small Town

It is located on the main square of the city, known as Rossio. The panel is one of the symbols of the city of Viseu. The panel was signed by the first generation of Portuguese modernist artists, artist Joaquim Lopez in 1931, and depicts scenes from the rural life of the region, the famous city fair and much more. It's just a pity that it is located behind the road and it's problematic to get close.

Nice

Amazing shopping center ! However there’s only 1 toilet room (with approximately 10 toilets) for all the shopping center and it’s located on top of the center and sometimes when they clean it (which is ok) they close it (which is not okay)… if you have a young child and want to go to the toilet good luck getting up there in time. Needs more toilets.

Huge shopping mall. Very spatious and impressive architecture. The top floor is for all the food chains (KFC, McDonald's, Subway, Pizza Hut, Ola,...) with access to large roof terrace. Also ice-skating here.

An impressive mall with everything you need and parking nearby

Awesome mall it has everything anyone needs from Movie theater to bowling and even pools

This shopping centre is great. Lots to do, lots of shops, open until 11pm. Large rooftop terrace where you can see everything. Ice rink and soft play inside, cinema inside.

Now this is a shopping mall... goodness knows how many floors ... top floor is food courts galore then each floor has lots of shops/brands. There's even a cinema & small IKEA store. Plenty to do, plenty to see & enjoy browsing...

Great shopping centre with lots of options. However, very limited on elevators if visiting with baby buggies or wheelchairs. Only 3 elevators for the whole building. Extremely time consuming to move between floors.

2 day kayaking trip with a tent. A fantastic way to try out camping in the wild. Beautiful scenery, plenty of space on the kayaks for tens and food, which is much more convenient than carrying a bag on your shoulders. Perfect for those who want to go camping, but are put back by carrying gear. Very warm water in summer!!!

We did a two day canoe trip and it was amazing! Matt was super helpful and the equipment was perfect. We had an unforgettable two days. This should be a must do trip for anyone coming to Portugal!

I had a great day out in a kayak from Rock and River in July 2021. A group of us did the one day trip which is 13 miles of the Mondego river. Matt was really friendly and enthusiastic, and told us everything we needed to know about both the boats and our journey. He checked we were all comfortable in our kayaks before seeing us off on a self-guided tour, and was there to meet us at the other end. It was a wonderful experience in a beautiful setting and I can recommend Rock and River to anyone!

Lovely and peaceful in the heart of Portugal countryside ! We lived here for 2 months in the AirBnB Matt is renting, and it was a true dream ! The canoe on river Montego is amazing too, with beautiful landscapes and very good equipment. Matt is an incredible host !

Fantastic opportunity to explore kayaking on a self-guided tour. Very well organised and friendly. You get to explore such a beautiful river. Thanks for the lovely experience

Very nice guy , very well arranged ! We had a top day !

Very large castle perched at the top of this quaint town overlooking the surrounding countryside plains , the views from all higher points in the castle are awesome . There’s a €1.50 entry fee to the castle and it is well worth it . You can walk around the walls by beware there are no guard rails . It is well maintained and restored/preserved. This is a definitely must see .

Well for a small fee this is great. The views especially on a nice day would be fantastic. Large castle and the cistern has the best echo. The view of the town from here is also worth it.

What a beautiful experience! We dropped our car before entering the city (highly recommend) and walked to the castle. There is a lovely cafe halfway, perfect for a drink with a beautiful view. The castle is so beautiful and in such a good state considering how old it is. To enter you pay a fee of 1,50€ and after you can explore the castle. We spend almost 1,5 hours walking around. You can also get some souvenirs towards the other side of the castle. We were lucky to be there during the filmfestival and enjoyed a magical night watching a movie and enjoying some fado music. Obrigado!❤️

Beautiful castle with great views across the entire area. Small charge to get in and dog friendly.

Well restored Castle with great views and fun to explore. You can walk along top of the entire Castle perimeter walls although it's quite scary as there are no railings on the inner side. Best of all it's so peaceful. It's the highlight of my Portugal trip.

Spectacular large castle built on a 900m high rocky hill. Construction started when Muslims ruled Iberia under the rule of Ibn Maruan at the end of the 9th century. In the follwing centuries it was further enlarged and modified and played an important role in the defence of Portugal. You can climb the ramparts and towers and with good weather have a good view of the surounding areas

It's like a river. We can see lots of endemic fish. The aquariums are clear and well maintained.

Relatively small (less than one hour) but well taken care and with lots of different species. Particularly good for kids. Nice restaurant in the same building with a view for one of the fish tanks

Very complete. Nice fish display

My kids loved this place, it's fantastic, with a lot of different species, a place to feed fishes and also a cafe for human beings 😄

Nice place! Sea otters, axolotles and many fresh water fishes and reptiles.

A nice aquarium built around the structure and different stages of a river. It is not very big (comparing to other aquariums) but is "complete" and well organized. It has the normal gift-shop and also a room with activities for smaller kids. Overall, a very nice place to visit in the middle of Alentejo. The family ticket for 2 adults and two children was about 22 euros.

It is a place to see river species from Portugal and some from other places like Brazil. It is a tour of 40mins give or take and kids love to see all the different fishes. Right near to it there is a small river beach where you can go or you some tables to have something to eat from takeaway.

I visited Monte Selvagem today with my 2-year-old, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! The animals are very well cared for, and their enclosures are spacious and impeccably clean. The staff were incredibly friendly, making the visit even more enjoyable. One of the highlights was the petting farm—such a wonderful hands-on experience, especially for little ones! The washrooms were clean, which is always a plus. However, if you're visiting with children, I highly recommend bringing your own snacks, as the bar had very limited to no food options. Also, keep in mind that the park is not stroller-friendly, so plan accordingly. Overall, Monte Selvagem is a must-visit for families and animal lovers alike. Highly recommended!

We loved it. It's a beautiful place to be in contact with nature. Plenty of picnic tables and playgrounds for the kids. The tree houses are amazing. We got to see different animals up close. A place to go back to. 💚

We love the Monte Selvagem Nature Park. Spent a golden autumn day Sunday on 2 November. The scenery around the park sometimes reminds me of the wild open spaces in Tasmania, or even in South Africa driving the roads to Hermanus or in wild reserves next to the Kruger. It has a lovely family feel, wildlife conservation. Kids learn a lot. So many picnic tables around and a little café for a tea, or even a meal if people need. Our daughter just turned 4 and loved it, we also came shen she was 2.5 yrs and loved it then too. Lovely countryside hangout. The playgrouds, bamboo labyrinth (like Arashiyama in Japan) are great fun too.

A wonderful place to spend half-day with kids. Well maintened with a nice selection of animals that, most import, look happy and well treated. There's plenty of wc, garbage bins, refreshing spots. In addition, there's playgrounds located in different parts of the park. Which helps a lot to entertain the kids. Finally, landscape is superb, resulting in plenty of beautiful and shadowed areas. Totally recommend it.

Great place to go with kids. Looks like COVID times made them pass through some difficulties - the tractor ride no longer exists. The animals are all very well treated and the place is amazing in terms of being within nature. An amazing day with kids

Very pleasant, excellent to spend a day with the family, many activities for different ages. Animals are very well treated, like the entire space. I loved the farm where we can walk among the animals and feed them by hand. We will certainly return.

Nice park with charming petting zoo. Large animals in captivity is an unfortunate thing these days. Although out of the way for those without private transport, it's worthwhile making an effort to get there for a lovely day out.
