Threads M The Monastery in an Hour Eleven stops: both great portals, Vasco da Gama and Camões, the vault, the royal tombs, then the carved cloister, Pessoa's tomb and the view from the upper floor. 11 pieces W The Whole Monastery in Two Hours The full visit in walking order: the portals, the church from the tombs under the choir to the marble chancel, then every side of the cloister, its halls and the upper storey. 23 pieces K Kings, Poets and a Navigator Portugal buried its heroes here, and some of those tombs are not what they seem. The first five stops are in the free church; the last two need the cloister ticket. 7 pieces S Small Wonders of the Cloister A lion in a corner, an odd pier, a door to the orphans' school, a lost garden pool, doors for confessing sailors, gargoyles and arches once walled up. All behind the cloister ticket. 14 pieces F From Beach Chapel to Stage Set A king's gift of a twentieth of Mina money and India goods, what the 1755 earthquake really did, the spired wing that collapsed in 1878 killing ten, and how to tell real Manueline from its 19th-century revival by eye. 9 pieces An independent audio guide by Roamer, not affiliated with or endorsed by the Jerónimos Monastery.
