About this activity
We take-off from Lisbon in the morning heading directly to the UNESCO-listed Pena Palace. The 19th-century Romantic palace is a wonder to discover and one you will not soon forget. It is one of the best places to take pictures. It’s placed high on top of the mountain with a splendid view that stretches for miles, all the way to the Ocean.
As you stroll through the beautiful and exotic landscape, your guide will give you historical and architectural details on the region but letting you explore the monuments on your own. Later we continue through the National Park onwards to see the Chalets, Moorish Castle and Montserrate Palace.
Moving forward we have the stunning Quinta da Regaleira. This yet another UNESCO-listed site has anciently carved buildings, incredible gardens and a gothic breeze that will enchant anyone who dares to enter. Full of history behind it, you will learn all about the caves, secret wells and art that originated from the Masonry, the Templars and the Rose Cross.
Before moving towards Cabo da Roca, You may want take a stroll through the historical center of Sintra. This is a good time to rest, lunch and try out some traditional regional pastries. Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of Continental Europe, is yet another great spot to take some pictures and feel the sea breeze.
Reaching the end of our trip we want to show the place where many Portuguese Royal Families used to vacation. We would not consider this trip a success if you didn’t experience the coastal splendor of Cascais.

Cesar, our personal tour guide was awesome! He brought my mom and I to all the places we wanted to see such as Pena Palace and my favourite, Quinta da Regaleira and also gave us some suggestions on where we should go, such as the popular city centre of Sintra and the Boca do Inferno in Cascais. During the Pena Palace visit he told us a lot about the history of the castle. Cesar was very friendly and shared his knowledge about every place we travelled to. It was fantastic! We wouldn’t have been able to see so much in a day without him! Definitely a must do!
The tour guide was very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately, when we arrived at Sintra, it was very foggy, so we were not in a position to get the best out of that part of the tour. The second property we visited on the tour was amazingly beautiful, and not packed with tourists like Sintra. The local restaurant where we had lunch was also good.
This was a great trip. Our tour guide told us all about the area and took us to places he was very knowledgeable about. He took us to a wonderful restaurant near the water. It was great. I highly recommend Rui, our guide.
Enjoyed the trip to Sintra, the palace was beautiful. Cascais and surrounding area was stunning. Cabo dal Roca was such a great vista
Specifically requested Marco on the recommendation of friends who were extremely satisfied with their Sintra experience. Experienced guide who catered to our requests including pickup point, drop-off and variations. Happy to add Quinta da Regaleira to our itinerary without hesitation. Knowledgeable of area. Booking ensured capacity to skip queues for sites. Wonderful experience with great variation in places visited. Very happy with lunchtime dining suggestion. No nervousness with skill of driver. More than happy to repeat the day with Marco.
