Itinerary
1
Park and National Palace of Pena
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.
2 hours
2
Sintra
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.
1 hour and 30 minutes
3
Quinta da Regaleira
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.
1 hour and 30 minutes
4
Cabo da Roca
The "cherry on top" is the drive by Sintra Natural Park, stopping at Cabo da Roca, the tip of Continental Europe, and discovering coastline secrets along the way.
