Very interesting exibition for better understanding the portuguese importance in explorations and developments of marinery. Excellent boat models from 1400 to 1800, and very interesting and complete collection of models of all the typical portuguese local boat
The exhibit was interesting, impressive and informative! There was virtually no line to get into the building. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The only problem with the museum is the audio tour. The audio kept cutting off mid play and required constant replay and refreshing of the audio. However, this problem can be avoided if you perchase an in house audio guide rather then the free one offered.
I visited the museum in 1971 and loved it. I wanted my grandsons to see where our American history began, since I learned si much the first time. This time the top floor was closed off, and no Christopher Columbus or Amerigo Vespucci, etc. I was disappointed in that regard, but the current exhibition focusing on India and Africa was very interesting and we learned a lot. I have an even greater appreciation of Portugal's contributions in the development of international relationships .
The exhibits great. Sadly, purchased an adult ticket did not want with our 4 senior tickets. Website confusing.
It was unforgettable not to enter the museum because it was closed. They sold tickets for a day when it was closed.

Enjoyed the experience but the app and booking process was confusing meaning I was overcharged and when I emailed to say this you could not refund me my overcharge so I will not be using your company again.

What I loved most about this experience was the ease of presenting the e-ticket, and of course seeing the inside of the monastery, it is truly beautiful. The bad thing, the waiting time to enter, today I had a long line at 11 am and I was able to enter until 12:50 pm.

The place is beautiful and worth the experience. Arrive very early, or after 1pm, to avoid huge queues. Wear sunscreen and bring a hat.

Had a wonderful visit to the monestry. Avoided the early queues by going mid afternoon and enjoyed the beautiful cloisters without too many others spoiling the views!! Only dispappointment was to find the Church closed due to renovation work, so check before visiting.
The tickets were easy to purchase on line through this site. The Jeronimous monastery is worth the visit. This intricate, stunning architecture is incredible to see close up.
Queue went down very quickly so not waiting for long to get in. Stunning building. The architecture was so beautiful and detailed. Very calm and cool inside the cloisters as well. Plenty opportunity and space to take pictures. Certainly worth a visit. Also went to the church next door. Also beautiful.
Beautiful and inspirational! Purchase your tickets online and the early time slot is the best. We arrived 20min prior to the 9:30 first showing and we were in the Monestary by 9:40. I did notice that the line got considerably longer and longer throughout the day. Definitely recommend visiting!
Although the queue at the entrance was very long, the entry times were not long. Jeronimus Monastery is a tourist attraction not to be missed.

The monastery is magnificent. The interior is truly splendid, and the facade is also very impressive. The church is quite pretty. The visit is quick. But it's very crowded. Estimated waiting time was 2 hours. But fortunately, families with strollers get priority access without having to queue! Thank you for this.

It's a magnificent (if somewhat empty) space that transports us to another era. The church was being renovated, so there's nothing to see.

the monastery has a very particular architecture, the patios are a marvel, as well as its cathedral. as well as the cathedral. what is not understood if it is with time what is the sense of having that tremendous line in the access.

Good experience but credit card did not work well the first time and had to use a different one which was frustrating. This experience should take Discover card for payment. Tickets were sent promptly. Wait was rather long though which was frustrating.
The most difficult thing was the long entrance line Everyone wanted to enter and cut in the front The guards often gave into the pushy customers The time reservations were not controlled. People with tickets for 11:00 am we're entering at 9:30 am
Impressive historical building but experience is limited to the architecture, taking about 30 minutes (after a one and a half hour wait in full sun, with a very, very high admission price).
Didn't like: The entry is expencive, but there's not much to do exept take photos. I wish there was some information about the place. I read online that visitors had to covef themselves, but to me it looked like everyone could wear whatever.
