Overview

Explore the most charming medieval town of Óbidos with an experienced, knowledgeable, and friendly guide who will take you through the history and the tales, the streets and the alleys, the castle and the churches, the fine art, and (last but not least) an authentic taste of this ancient Portuguese land: the tour includes a free tasting of the famous local liqueur called “Ginjinha de Óbidos”, served on a chocolate cup!
Don’t miss out on the trendy bookstore “Ler Devagar” located on a former royal chapel, the 1300-year-old Muslim castle, the old Moorish and Jewish quarters, the superb “pietá” of renaissance master Nicolau de Chanterene and the works of celebrated XVII century local painter and global talent Josefa de Óbidos. She was the first Portuguese female artist to have her works exhibited in the Louvre Museum.
Learn about how Óbidos was, for centuries, a special place for the queens of Portugal. Come and dive deep in Óbidos and take some gorgeous photos along the way.

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
