Activity itinerary

Sintra Mountains (Pass by)

Pass through the breathtaking Serra de Sintra, also known as the Sintra Mountains, a protected natural landscape near Lisbon known for its green hills, dramatic valleys, ancient rock formations, and unique blend of nature, history, and legend.

Fonte da Sabuga

Hidden near Sintra’s historic centre, the Sabuga Fountain is a quiet 17th-century spot known for its fresh, mineral-rich water and local traditions. Long associated with legends of healing and wellbeing, this peaceful fountain offers a charming pause along the route and a glimpse into Sintra’s cultural heritage.

Castelo dos Mouros (Pass by)

From the mountain road, enjoy a distant view of the Moorish Castle, an ancient fortress whose stone walls stretch across the hills of Sintra. We do not visit the castle or stop at its entrance, but this scenic viewpoint offers a great opportunity to admire its impressive silhouette and understand its historical role in the region.

Park and National Palace of Pena

1h 30m
Admission ticket included

Visit Pena Palace, Sintra’s most iconic landmark and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Your Essential Ticket is included and grants access to the palace interior and surrounding park. Your guide will share historical context throughout the park and terraces, while the palace interior visit is self-guided, allowing you to explore at your own pace.

Centro Historico de Sintra

Enjoy a walking stop in Sintra’s historic centre, with time to explore its charming streets, traditional shops, and emblematic squares. This stop offers a relaxed opportunity to experience the village atmosphere, taste local sweets, try a traditional ginjinha, and browse Portuguese artisan shops.

Casa Piriquita

During your free time in Sintra’s historic centre, you may visit Piriquita, a famous pastry shop founded in 1862 and known for traditional local sweets such as travesseiros and queijadas. This stop is optional, and any food or drinks are not included in the tour price.

Colares

1h 15m

Stop for lunch in Colares, a traditional village in the Sintra region known for its vineyards, rural landscapes, and authentic local atmosphere. Guests will have time to enjoy Portuguese cuisine at a local restaurant, with options that may include fresh fish, regional meat dishes, and vegetarian choices. Please note that lunch is not included in the tour price.

Cabo da Roca

Discover Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Portugal and continental Europe. Enjoy breathtaking views and take unforgettable photos at this iconic location, often described as the “end of Europe,” where dramatic cliffs meet the vast Atlantic Ocean, providing a memorable and scenic conclusion to the journey.

Estrada do Guincho (Pass by)

Drive past Guincho Beach, one of Portugal’s most scenic Atlantic beaches, known for its wild dunes, ocean views, and connection to surfing and wind sports. This is a panoramic drive-by only, with no scheduled stop.

Guincho Beach (Pass by)

Boca do Inferno

The dramatic name Boca do Inferno—meaning “Mouth of Hell”—comes from the striking rock formation carved into the cliffs by the relentless force of the Atlantic Ocean. When the waves crash into the cavern below, the water explodes through the opening in a powerful and dramatic display, creating one of the most impressive natural spectacles along the Cascais coastline.

Cascais

Cascais marks the final scenic highlight of the tour. We’ll make a 30-minute stop in this charming coastal town, giving you time for a short walk through the historic centre, browse local shops, and enjoy the seaside atmosphere near the bay. Known for its elegant charm, ocean views, and relaxed coastal lifestyle, Cascais offers a pleasant closing moment before the return journey to Lisbon.
