Best way to experience Sintra! - We really had a great time biking through Sintra. I highly recommend! It was a great way to see all of the sites and avoid the crazy traffic. I also loved the app/ Maps, which made the experience very easy to navigate. It was such a fun day!

Great experience - We rented two ebikes from the store and traveled out to the coast to see Praia das Azenhas do Mar. The ride out and back were quite beautiful; forested woods, narrow rural roads, quiet small villages, beautiful views, and great ocean views. The beach town is very pretty and a great spot for lunch. The staff were very accommodating and professional. Two of our party got seperated and the staff immediately was offering help thru Whatsapp. We used RidewGPS on an iphone and it was invaluable and right on. The app made navigation exceptionally easy. Only negative comment would be for a very few individuals like myself (Overweight with heart damage), their bikes were underpowered. I had to walk several short sections but was helped significantly due to the bike's walk mode. All and all, loved the tour and would do again.

Great trip on the e-bikes to the castles! - We've had an amazing trip last week renting 2 elektric bikes to cycle to the castles. We've been instructed by a young lady with her dad and everything was organised very well with an app for the route, great bikes with powerfull motors and a whatsapp service for having contact with go2cintra. It's beatifull out there to cycle trough the mountains and with a bike you can have your own pace without waiting in a hot car, bus or tuktuk. It's not that hard to going up the mountains, there's a power setting which can be used if it's to steep. Thank you very much go2cintra, i would advise everyone to rent a bike here!

Best day EVER in Sintra! - Most amazing day and the absolute best experience in Sintra! Catia, the host is an absolute delight and incredibly informative. She got us set up for the day so it was impossible to make a wrong turn and made the best lunch recommendation. This is not a trip for anyone who is not a confident biker!!! Get an early start because the owners let you keep the bike for the entire day! Fabulous value.

A good ride but you need to have a little bit of biking experience - It was a good time and we loved the palaces and seeing the countryside, but be warned that some of the hills are steep and very, very long and that some of the trip has heavy taxi and bus traffic, especiallly near pena palace (at least when we went in late July).
