ITINERARY
Cascais · Seaside Charm
Your day begins in Cascais, where colourful streets meet the Atlantic and a fishing village’s heritage blends with the elegance of a former royal summer retreat.
Enjoy its coastal atmosphere, picturesque corners, and ocean views before continuing along the shoreline.
Cabo da Roca · Where the Land Meets the Atlantic
Follow the scenic coastal road to Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe.
Here, rugged cliffs rise above the ocean, and the views stretch towards the horizon. Take a moment to breathe in the Atlantic air, admire the landscape, and capture the beauty of this remarkable setting.
Sintra · A World of Romance and History
From the open coastline, journey into the green hills of Sintra. Forested roads, historic estates, and hilltop palaces reveal why this town has captivated visitors for generations.
Explore the historic centre, wander through its winding streets, and enjoy free time for lunch. Take the opportunity to try a traditional travesseiro or queijada, browse the local shops, or simply savour the atmosphere.
Palaces, Gardens and Discovery
Your monument visit brings you closer to the history and imagination that make Sintra so distinctive.
If you choose the private tour without admission tickets, you will visit the monument agreed in advance with our team. A second monument can be added through the corresponding booking add-on.
For the private and group options with Pena Palace admission included, the afternoon leads to one of Sintra’s most recognisable landmarks. Pena Palace is the final visit of the day, with admission arranged in advance.
If you choose transport only, enjoy your time in Sintra independently, following the meeting instructions and timings provided by the team.
Back to Lisbon · Memories to Take Home
At the end of the day, return to Lisbon with a collection of coastal views, discoveries, and moments from Sintra to remember.
Whether you choose a private experience or a shared adventure, let us take care of the journey while you enjoy the places along the way.
