On this private full-day tour, discover Sintra, a charming village surrounded by lush greenery, once chosen by the Portuguese royal family as their summer retreat. We suggest exploring the enchanting Pena Park, where you will find the magnificent Pena Palace — a unique and remarkable building featuring a blend of decorative styles, symbolic elements, and fascinating architectural details. Enjoy a carefully designed route through the palace’s newer wing, its scenic terraces offering panoramic views, and the beautiful landscapes of Pena Park.

After visiting Pena Palace, you will have free time to discover the historic center of Sintra. Explore the narrow streets and don't forget to try the famous queijadas and pillows. We suggest to lunch in the historic center of Sintra or in Óbidos.

From the magic Sintra, Óbidos is about 1h drive north. Óbidos enchants visitors with its medieval atmosphere, narrow cobblestone streets, and stunning castle. As you explore, be sure to take in the panoramic views from the castle walls and meander through the quaint village streets lined with whitewashed houses decorated with colorful flowers. At the main town gate, Porta da Vila, you’ll find intricate blue and white tiles and a small chapel that add to the town’s charm. Rua Direita, the main street, is ideal for shopping local crafts, sampling traditional sweets, and trying the local cherry liqueur, ginjinha, which is traditionally served in a chocolate cup. Comfortable shoes are recommended for navigating Óbidos’ cobbled streets. You can explore most of the village’s highlights in about three to four hours, making it an ideal afternoon destination. Combining Sintra’s fairytale ambiance with Óbidos’ medieval allure makes for an unforgettable day in Portugal. Enjoy your visit!
