Highlights

We’ll start the day with a visit to the magical Pena Palace, the red-and-yellow Disney-like castle that sits atop Sintra’s second highest peak. Next stop, lunch at a traditional Portuguese restaurant.Think fresh, local ingredients and plenty of wine! After lunch we visit the 12th century Peninha Sanctuary. From here you’ll take in 360-degree views of the forest, the Atlantic Ocean, Lisbon, Sintra and Cascais. As we cruise around in one of our convertible jeeps we will take you off-road to epic lookouts and secret spots other visitors can’t reach. Snap Polaroid pictures at the coast, play epic tunes all day long and give you the chance to taste Sintra’s traditional sweet pastry and Port wine. Palace tickets (7,5€ p/person) and lunch (25-30€ p/person) are not included. Our visit will exclusively cover the terraces, chapel, and gardens. Depending on the season the waiting times can affect or compromise parts of the rest of the experience as host no longer have priority in the queues

About Sintra

Sintra is a hill town west of Lisbon, wrapped in misty forest and crowned by a Moorish castle, a colourful Romantic palace and mysterious gardens.

Sintra is a UNESCO-listed cultural landscape on the Serra de Sintra, a granite ridge that catches Atlantic mist and keeps the hills green and cool. Portuguese kings and nobles built summer palaces here. The Pena Palace, a painted fantasy of yellow and red towers, sits on the highest hill, while the Moorish Castle's walls climb the ridge nearby, and the old centre has the Sintra National Palace, recognisable by its two conical chimneys.

Top-ranked sights in Sintra: Quinta da Regaleira, Convent of the Capuchos.
