Monsanto (TV's Game of Thrones) Full Day Private Tour from Lisbon
Overview
Adventure yourself on a full-day private SUV eco-Tour to Monsanto from Lisbon and discover Dragonstone, one of the most identifiable locations of House of the Dragon, the prequel to the award-winning TV drama Game of Thrones. This fictional and iconic location in Targaryen story was filmed in the Mountain and Castle of Monsanto in Portugal which is a fortress-village that dates back to the time of the first Knights Templar. Monsanto features Dragonstone in several episodes, but especially frames Dragonstone's most wonderful scenes throughout the thrilling tenth and final episode of House of the Dragon. The location had to be special, out of this world and full of mystique to serve in an epic finale. As the HBO hit series' director said "when we saw Monsanto, on a mountain, our jaws dropped and we felt we had found Dragonstone", the home of House Targaryen, the very own HotD.
Get surprised too and immerse in the scenic fantasy world of HotD and GoT, while learning about local landmarks.
