Description

On this private half-day tour, discover Sintra, a charming village surrounded by lush vegetation, once the summer retreat of the Portuguese royal family. The experience includes a visit to the Pena Park and Palace, one of the most remarkable examples of Romantic architecture in Portugal. With its vibrant colors, eclectic decorative styles, and breathtaking views over the mountains and the Atlantic, Pena Palace is a true national icon. After visiting Pena Palace (approximately 3 hours), you’ll have the opportunity to choose how to complete your tour, depending on your pace and interests: Explore Sintra’s historic center, one of the most authentic and picturesque areas of the town. Stroll through its narrow cobbled streets, discover traditional shops, and taste the famous queijadas and travesseiros. This option allows you to enjoy the local atmosphere at a relaxed pace and capture the true essence of Sintra. Visit Quinta da Regaleira, one of Sintra’s most iconic sites, known for its mysterious gardens, symbolic architecture, and the famous Initiation Well. A fascinating choice, especially for those who have already visited Sintra and wish to explore its more esoteric and symbolic side. Both options are excellent, but the historic center is particularly recommended during the summer, offering a more relaxed and enjoyable experience with greater freedom to explore at your own rhythm. Special Notes – Summer 2025 Due to new traffic regulations in Sintra and the high number of visitors at Pena Palace, our main priority is to ensure the best possible experience for our clients. For this reason, we suggest focusing the tour on the visit to Pena Palace (3h) and then choosing either the historic center or Quinta da Regaleira (around 1h). If the client wishes to visit all three locations, time in each will need to be reduced, which may affect the overall quality of the experience.
