Description
After a 45-minute drive from Lisbon (central pick-up location), we’ll arrive in the enchanting town of Sintra, with our first stop at the stunning Pena Palace, perched high in the mountains.
Our adventure begins with a guided, gentle hike through the magical Pena Park, a lush, living masterpiece. This route offers a peaceful escape from the crowds at the main entrance.
Once we reach Pena Palace, we’ll guide you along its vibrant terraces, sharing insights into its rich history and architecture. We believe the true beauty lies outdoors, so we don’t plan to visit the often-crowded rooms inside.
Next, we’ll drive down the mountain to Sintra’s charming old town, near the National Palace. You’ll have free time to enjoy lunch and explore the area at your own pace.
After lunch, we’ll regroup for a visit to the enigmatic Quinta da Regaleira, where we’ll wander through its fountains, grottoes, and the famous Initiation Well.
The 'cherry on top' is the visit to the westernmost point of continental Europe, driving through Sintra Natural Park and discovering some of the hidden coastal gems along the way.
