Highlights
- Park and National Palace of Pena - The marvelous Pena Palace was built on one of the highest points of Sintra Mountain, offering stunning views. It represents the greatest example of 19th-century Romanticism in Portugal, with different influences from the Manueline and Moorish styles. You may wander through its lush gardens, which have more than five hundred tree species from all over the world. The famous composer Richard Strauss named this magnificent palace the “Castle of the Holy Grail”. Important: Entrance to the Pena Palace is subject to availability, and it’s only possible with a previously booked date and time. - Quinta da Regaleira - As an alternative to the Pena Palace, you may visit the extravagant Quinta da Regaleira, which was built in the 20th century. It’s well known for its lush gardens, caves, and enigmatic constructions, which evoke alchemical symbols from Freemasonry, the Knight-Templars, and the Rose-Cross orders. It also mixes different styles, reflecting Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Manueline architecture. Important: It’s highly recommended to buy the tickets online. - Centro Historico de Sintra - Wander the cobbled lanes of Sintra’s heart, where history is etched into the very stones and local pastries add sweetness to your exploration. - Cabo da Roca - After crossing Sintra Mountain, you will reach the most western point of Continental Europe, the imposing Roca Cape, which is 140m above the ocean level and was immortalized by the illustrious Portuguese poet Luís de Camões: “where the land ends and the ocean begins.” - Guincho Beach - Guincho Beach is one of the greatest beaches in Cascais and one of the most beautiful. It’s well known for its wild dunes and untamed sea. How about a superb lunch with sea flavor and a stunning ocean view? - Cascais - Cascais was a summer destination for the Portuguese royalty and aristocracy from the end of the 19th century and a refuge for the European monarchy deposed during World War II. This fishing town has become a cosmopolitan seaside resort, considered the Portuguese Riviera, with several palatial luxury houses that embellish its bay. - Estoril - Estoril has long welcomed international visitors, and during World War II, it acquired a glamorous reputation when Portugal’s neutrality and mild weather attracted the rich and famous, German and English spies, and European royals and aristocrats. The town is still a fashionable cosmopolitan destination with Europe’s largest casino.

Nothing Better - Nothing beats this experience for a day leaving Lisbon and seeing Sintra, Cascais, the western most point and the coastline. Carlos was fabulous, friendly, knowledgeable and professional all at the same time. When we left and he said “You’ll always have a friend in Portugal” I hope he meant it. What a memorable day.

Breathtaking - Absolutely breathtaking! The full-day tour of Sintra, Roca Cape, and Cascais was amazing. Sintra's enchanting Pena Palace was like stepping into a living fairy tale, and the views from Roca Cape were simply out of this world. Cascais wrapped up the day with its laid-back elegance. Carlos was exceptional - knowledgeable and friendly. The journey was as smooth as it was spectacular. A five-star recommendation! Thank you so much!
