Itinerary and highlights
Driven through Sintra's forested hillsides, you will learn how, in the 19th-century, the town became the first center of the European Romanticism architecture. At the top of the Sintra hills, where the Pena Palace and Park is located, your guide will escort you inside the palace.
Explore the Old Town of Sintra by browsing the village handicraft shops, taste some local delicacies like the “Travesseiros” or “Queijadas”, or just soak up the old world atmosphere at a local café.
Breathtaking views await at Cabo da Roca, a cliffside point overlooking the Atlantic Ocean which is the westernmost tip of Europe.
Pass the wild Guincho beach on the way to Cascais.
At the charming seaside city of Cascais, a summer playground on the Portuguese Riviera, you will have free time to have lunch (own expense), stroll around the bay or the local beach.
