Day Trip Details
At the scheduled time, we'll meet in the heart of Lisbon to head to Sintra, located only half an hour from the Portuguese capital.
Once we get to Sintra, we'll start touring the historic center of this charming village that has many attractions. There we'll see the exterior of the National Palace of Sintra, originally in Arab style and renovated in the 15th century in the Manueline style. Did you know that it's part of the World Heritage List?
Then, we'll go on a guided tour of the Quinta da Regaleira Palace, an enigmatic complex with many secrets, legends, and mysteries. It also has gardens full of exotic species, waterfalls, grottoes, and even an initiatory well.
Afterward, we'll go on a guided tour of the Pena National Park and Palace, the most iconic monument of Sintra and one of the most visited locations in Portugal. Did you know that it was the residence of the Portuguese kings during the 19th century? We'll tell you all about the exciting facts hidden behind its walls!
Have you worked up an appetite? After the visit to Quinta da Regaleira, you'll have free time to have lunch in Sintra. After lunch, we'll stop briefly at the Cabo da Roca so you can take a beautiful keepsake photo from this impressive cliff.
Next, we'll enjoy a sightseeing tour of Cascais, where we'll get to this beautiful city by bus.
Lastly, between 8 and 9 hours later, we'll part ways in the center of Lisbon. See you soon!
Please Note
Due to new regulations, guided tours inside the Palácio da Pena are no longer permitted. The guided visit will therefore take place in the gardens and on the terraces. Once it's finished, we'll hand out your tickets so you can explore the palace interior at your own pace.
Itinerary Adjustments
Please note that, due to organizational reasons, the order of the visits described in the itinerary may change. In addition, the stop for lunch may take place in Cascais, where we'll enjoy a guided walking tour instead of a scenic tour.
In addition, please note that during high season, the tour may take longer due to traffic.

If you would like to visit in a group of no more than 8 people, you can choose to book our small group day-trip to Sintra, Pena Palace, Quinta da Regaleira and Cabo da Roca.
