Additional Information

Our journey will highlight the best of Cascais, including a walking tour of Cascais old town, visits to the small villages of Cascais, Peninha Sanctuary, Cabo da Roca, and a scenic ride along the coastal road through Guincho, Cresmina and Cabo Raso.

We commence by traversing the quaint villages in the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park on our way to Peninha Sanctuary. This unforgettable place is steeped in legends dating back to the 16th century. Our path takes us to the westernmost boundary of the European Continent, Cabo da Roca. Here, towering cliffs rise 140m over the marine-blue Atlantic Ocean.

As we drive along the beachside road to Cascais, we will pass the stunning Guincho Beach, the Cresmina Dunes and Boca do Inferno. There will be opportunities for short walks and photo sessions.

Arriving in Cascais, a renowned royal summer retreat since the late 19th Century, we will take a walking tour around the old town, featuring its important sights.

The tour includes a total walking distance of around 3km. Comprehensive historical and local information will be offered throughout to enhance your understanding of the locations we explore.

Fantastic Private Tour of Portugal - Few words can truly express how accommodating and wonderful Pedro was to our family. Yes, he was also the driver and guide, going beyond the call of duty to take care of every request and need during our Portugal travels. His knowledge and fluent English made everything an exciting adventure. His hotel and restaurant recommendations for Cascais, Porto, and Lisbon were excellent choices. We told Pedro which sights we were interested in and he planned our entire eight day itinerary. When we were in the planning stages, Pedro was always very prompt in responding to our emails and texts and was very organized and professional. He is a gentleman in every sense of the word. We would be thrilled to return to Portugal again and Pedro would be the only person we would ever consider asking to be our tour guide. His kindness helped build fun, lasting memories that will be forever enshrined in our hearts. The best and easiest guided tour we have ever experienced!

Beyond exceptional - We literally cannot say enough about Pedro and his incredible knowledge of Portugal! We loved him so much that we booked 3 more days with him. He not only took us to Cascais but to Obidos, Nazare and on to Porto. Then another 2 days over night journey to the magical village of Monsanto and more!!! Our trip was truly exceptional once in a lifetime to never forget. We absolutely fell in love w Pedro! Anyone who wants the best guide, amenable, creative and passionate about life and beautiful Portugal will need a passport and Pedro! He is the best of the best. We miss him already!!! Obrigada!

Excellent Day with Padro! - Pedro was an excellent guide. Very informative, fun, and a great driver. Seeing Cascais and the natural park and other sites was very worthwhile.

Beautiful Cascais - Pedro gave us a thorough year relaxing tour of the area from Cabo da Roca, through forests, sister rock climbing, trekking along the dunes, and the area of cascais proper from parks to the President's unassuming home. Even stopped at a craft shop where I was able to make a piece with our family name in local tiles. We are a couple in our sixties and managed the tour except for one climb. I have a knee replacement and repaired fractured ankle and my husband has back issue. You can do this and YOU SHOULD!
