Itinerary
Welcome to our Home town! Apart from non-touristic viewpoints inside the natural park (and obviously the stunning nature, that will be everywhere you look) , we welcome you to decide which monument you wish to visit in the inside ( more than one will be very exhausting for one day only, believe us!) and give you our best recommendations to help you decide! You will get to see all of them from the outside or viewpoints, don’t worry
This will be one of the possibilities for you to visit in the inside! Yes, it’s exactly the one you’re thinking of, the famous fairy-tail like, colorful Palace on the top of the mountain - Pena Palace!
Another of Sintra's many attractions you can choose to visit - Sits next to Pena Palace, on the top of the mountain showing off its fortress walls and breathtaking views!
Another of the monuments that you can choose to visit The mesmerizing first Palace made in Portugal and its iconic chimneys sits in the middle of Sintra Historical center! You can visit the Palace in the inside or just stool around the center's narrow streets and get a taste of the best local pastries!
This is another of the possibilities that you can choose to visit! A one of a kind property, with tons of mystical references, mystery gardens, enigmatic grottoes and of course the famous Iniciatic Well!
After crossing the mountain, we arrive to where the land ends and the sea begins: the most westerly point of mainland Europe! Please make sure you get your camera ready because this place is a real-life postcard!
Following by the beautiful ocean-front roads & white sandy beaches such as Guincho we reach our last destination, the scenic fishing village and a former vacation destination for the Portuguese Royal family! Here you will have free time to stroll around the village and it's cobbled streets!

Dynamic Duo! Our group had the best time because of their knowledge and charisma. They were kind, attentive, and friendly. They cultivated an environment of learning and laughter. Grateful for the experience.
We had a wonderful experience touring the Sintra area with Rafael. He was incredibly friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable, making the entire day both enjoyable and informative. Rafael shared fascinating insights about the history, culture, and landmarks of the region, and he was always happy to answer our questions. One of his greatest strengths is his ability to communicate effortlessly in multiple languages. He is fluent in English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese, which made everyone in our group feel comfortable and included. If you’re looking for a professional, personable, and highly knowledgeable guide for Sintra, we highly recommend Rafael. He truly made our visit unforgettable!
Bruno was a great guide and so knowledgeable about each location! I want to say we got to each location at the perfect time, just before the crowds. Pedro was also a great driver.
I loved the tour, it was a breath taking experience. Pedro and Bruno made the journey even better and I will for sure bring my family again.
Thank you to Bruno and Pedro! They were great .
5 out of 5 Bruno was an excellent and knowledgeable tour guide
Raphael was a great guide and helped us a lot, especially with our 6 month old. I learned a lot about Lisbon and Sintra that I otherwise would not have gotten on my own. The tour was helpful for navigating Sintra, getting to awesome spots, and definitely saved a lot of wasted time and frustration if we had done it on our own. Would definitely do again and recommend
Was booked for out party of 4 as part of a pkg. spent 8 hours with Alex ! He was amazing! Took us from Lisboa to Sintra and Cascais. He knew so much history! Several stops along the way ! Fabulous! Worth it!
Alex was an excellent and friendly host. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient. He has a great personality and treated us very well. I would highly recommend him.
Trip was amazing and our host, Luis and driver Pedro were both great. Extremely knowledgeable and funny. Peña Palace was quite a hike so bring your walking shoes but well worth the walk. Luis even gave us great tips for dinner and places to see the rest of our trip. Highly recommend.
