Full description

Travel to the wonderfully preserved city of Sintra on this day trip from Lisbon. Have some free time to explore Pena Palace and see the wonderful views of the National Park and Moorish Castle. Head to the coast to the viewpoint at Cabo da Roca and the seaside resort town of Cascais. Be picked up from our meeting point in Lisbon. Sit back and relax on the scenic drive through the countryside to Sintra. Take some time to explore the vibrantly colored hilltop castle of Pena Palace and admire one of the many views over the National Park and the ocean. Continue to Cabo da Roca where you can stand at the westernmost point of continental Europe. Snap some breathtaking shots of the impressive views of the ocean crashing against the high rocky cliffs. Finally, arrive in Cascais, an elegant seaside resort town on the Portuguese Riviera. Stroll through the lovely city center and check out Cascais’ luxury marina, its charming fishing port, and a restored fort that houses many local craftsmen.

My tour was fantastic and the perfect way to explore for me. It was a nice small group so it didn’t feel overwhelming going around with a huge group. Our guide was very personable and treated you like a friend bringing you around. The locations were beautiful and we had adequate time to wander and take photos and explore. Would highly recommend!

Just a fantastic day. The tour was magnificent. It was full of action and, at the same time, left us time to explore ourselves. We were a group of six from the same family and got everything we expected: History, architecture, nature, and even great music during the ride. Highly recommended

Jaime took us to all the important places and told us all kinds of interesting facts and things we needed to know, such as the number of checkpoints at the Palácio di Pena. He did not give a tour there himself, but had already given us so much information in advance that we recognized a lot. Our questions were also answered in detail. Definitely recommended.
