Igreja de Santa Maria dos Olivais
Step into history at Santa Maria do Olival, a hidden gem in Tomar with deep connections to the Knights Templar. Built in the 12th century as their spiritual headquarters, this Gothic church served as the burial site for Templar masters, including Gualdim Pais, the founder of Tomar. Admire its elegant yet simple façade, the striking rose window, and the unique detached bell tower, once used as a watchtower. Inside, discover centuries-old tombs, intricate azulejo tiles, and a peaceful atmosphere that echoes the Templars’ legacy. Later, the church became a key site for the Order of Christ, continuing the Templar mission during Portugal’s Age of Exploration. Standing on the banks of the Nabão River, Santa Maria do Olival is not just a historic monument—it’s a testament to Tomar’s enduring connection to the Templars and their influence on Portugal’s destiny. A must-visit for history lovers!

5.00Darren is a brilliant guide. He took us to the obvious wonderful places in the Convent but also some hidden corners. He’s truly expert in the history of the Knights Templar, Tomar and Portugal. He’s truly expert carefully distinguishes between myth and provable facts, so one can understand the stories but also what is historically accurate. All told, a fabulous private tour!
A masterful encyclopaedic tour of many templar sites with much information given in a highly digestible format

5.00We are a large group of medieval history enthusiast friends who holiday together, with a wide range of ages and equally wide range of mobility issues. Darren helped us in advance of our week-long trip to Portugal by supporting our planning for Tomar and our transfers to and from Lisbon. Darren assisted us in choosing restaurants, transport, and places to visit. Darren repeatedly went beyond our expectations, for example, organising a birthday cake for one of our knights. We were already quite knowledgeable about Templars, and Darren's in-depth knowledge about Tomar and the region's churches and castles really made the holiday just right for us. We recommend Darren's Templar tours, whether you know nothing about the Templars and want to learn, or you are a Medieval history academic looking to see the sites you've studied. Darren fit in completely with our group and was very adept and patient at adapting to our needs. To ‘sum up’, Darren provided a unique Tomar Templar guided experience. The images and video are a visual experience of our visit to Tomar. On behalf of the Sauniere Society Portugal 2025 (Hamilton, Alys, and Jayne), we send a knightly thank-you to Darren at Templar Knights Tours.
Great Experience
