Unique Adventure In Sintra - We did the bike ride from Sintra to Cascais. A little over 40km and It took about 4 hours. We were each provided one bottle of water. The bikes have a small pack to hold things. Our guide Daniel was knowledgeable and made sure we were safe during our trip. The e-bikes made the trip doable and enjoyable. There's still some effort to get up the hills but manageable. The ride took us through Sintra, where we were able to see views of some of the castles. We road on public roads the majority of the time. Heading out of Sintra, we stopped off at Coba Da Roca. The views from there were amazing. Then we made it to Cascais right for Sunset. I highly recommend this tour. It's a great way to experience Sintra.

Bike a Wish Sintra - Cascais e-bike tour was Spectacular ! - Can't rave enough about our Bike a Wish Sintra-Cascais e-bike tour. We saw Sintra and Cascais (like everybody else), but also got to do a spectacular e-bike ride from Sintra to Cascais (like nobody else). We rode through the beautiful National forest/park and by the gorgeous coast, with spectacular views and overlooks along the way. It was hilly but easy w/ the e-bikes. You can work at it (if you want) but don't have to. Our guide Bruno was amazing. So personable and extremely knowledgeable and compassionate about the area, but without overloading you with too much information. Just a spectacular day and a great way to get away from the crowds visiting Sintra. A great day trip from Lisbon. Do not sign up for the longer tours that include transportation to and from Lisbon (at a steep up-charge). Just take the train to Sintra (Bike a Wish folks will meet you right at the train station) and then take the train back to Lisbon from Cascais after having a delicious seafood lunch. Trains are simple and cheap; you don't need a guide or to pay extra. Ask for Bruno; he was the best !

Great bike tour - Daniel was an awesome guide! We loved the beautiful ride from Sintra to Cascais and would highly recommend this trip if you are starting from Sintra. We did have friends who did this bike tour from Lisbon (taking a train to Sintra and returning by train from Cascais), and the tour was free except for the bike rental. But as mentioned before this was a great trip for us as we were staying in Sintra.

Highly recommend this e-bike tour from Sintra to Cascais - Highly recommend for people who enjoy biking (recreationally or for sport). Rui met us at the assigned time with the bikes, and then handed us off to our awesome guide, Daniel. Daniel grew up in Sintra, so was a very informed guide.
Even with the August crowds, we safely navigated our way through Sintra, learned a lot about the history, then escaped the crowds on quite roads as we made out way to Cascais. I
Bikes were great, and accommodate most reasonable fitness levels. One of the bikes had a good storage bag for things we wanted to bring with us - like extra layers for the evening in Cascais. There were pouches on each bike for water bottles.
After the tour, we had a great evening & dinner in Cascais - big stage with music, tons of nightlife options. We were staying in Sintra, and getting an Uber/Bolt back to our hotel was very easy. T

A Ride to remember from Sintra to Cascais! -
We have had a great day! Our EBike your from Sintra to Cascais was sooo much fun. We went up and down mountains. The ups were not bad because of the Ebike assistance and the downs you felt like you were a 7yr old again! So much fun riding thru small roads through castles,huge retreats,forests,dunes,beaches!
Daniel and Ruy were our Guides/helper & the Ebikes were in great shape. They are really easy to use and it makes the 25 miles or so really easy and enjoyable! Daniel stopped frequently and gave us lots of info about all the areas. The views were spectacular! The path we took was very quiet and it seemed like we had it all to our selves. It was a spectacular day thanks to Bike A Wish! Highly recommend this tour!
Really fun!

Simply loved this e-bike tour of Sintra/Cascais! - I just loved this e-bike tour/activity! There were four of us in total (I signed up with 3 co-workers after our meetings were over in Cascais) and Ricardo was our fearless leader. He was an amazing guide that provided interesting insights about the area and the specific stops we visited (the stops were welcomed for the historical download, photo taking and to catch our breath!). The activity was more peddling than I was expecting but loads of fun. I wish I had packed a go pro! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking to get an overview of the area (and a moderate work-out in!).

Great bike ride in Sintra & Cascais! - The e-bike ride was the highlight of our visit to Sintra and Cascais. My mom is late 60s and was still able to do the bike ride. It is mostly downhill. Thanks for the great ride! Bruno was fabulous

Fabulous! An experience to repeat! - I went with a group of friends to do the e-bike tour, from Sintra to Cascais and it was fabulous! We saw stunning landscapes and views, in an authentic fairytale setting! Our guide Bruno was spectacular and always very attentive and in a great mood. The e-bikes are excellent and the route was much easier to follow with electric assistance. Anyone can take this wonderful tour! I highly recommend it! An experience to repeat.
