Tour Details

At the indicated time, we'll meet at Praça de Bocage to kick off our guided tour of Setúbal. Here, we'll make a brief introduction of the city's history in front of the statue of the poet Manuel María Barbosa du Bocage.

From here, we'll walk toward the Gothic-Manueline style Igreja de São Julião (St. Julian's Church) and the Igreja de São Sebastião. At this last site, we'll discover a church that not only stands out for its architecture, but also for the role it played in Setúbal's defense during the ancient invasions.

Then, we'll reach the Mirador de São Sebastião, where you'll enjoy the pretty views of the Sado Estuary and the Tróia Peninsula.

Afterward, we'll descend to the Garrafeira wine market. As expected, here we'll take part in a Moscatel tasting, one of Portugal's gastronomic gems. You'll love it!

Following the tasting, we'll go in search of the Casa da Baía, a cultural center within an 18th-century building where you'll discover the region's maritime wealth. We'll make a short stop here to rest before continuing toward the fountain in Praça Teófilo Braga, a symbol of the city.

We'll pass the Casa da Cultura on our way toward the former Monastery of Jesus, now turned into the Museu da Setúbal. Here, you'll admire the site's stunning cloister, adorned with traditional Gothic-Manueline details. 

Lastly, we'll conclude this 4-hour tour at the Parque do Bonfim, where we'll gaze at its lush vegetation and charming ponds.
