Itinerary

1. Historic center of Sintra is an ancient and mainly pedestrian village that was founded a thousand years ago. The Greeks called Sintra "Mountain of the Moon" and, even today, it is a real fairytale village. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1995. Here you will have free time for lunch (lunch costs are not included) and to enjoy some famous travesseiros in an old bakery that has existed since 1862 - these are light puff pastries that are turned, rolled and folded seven times and then filled with a delicious cream of egg yolks and almonds and lightly sprinkled with sugar. You can also enjoy Travesseiros de Sintra, the typical sweet of the town of Sintra.

About Lisbon

Lisbon spills down its hills to the Tagus estuary, a city of tiled façades, rattling yellow trams, viewpoint terraces and late, unhurried dinners.

The old quarters hold most of the charm. Alfama's tangle of lanes climbs to São Jorge Castle and echoes with fado in the evening, the Baixa's orderly grid runs down to the vast Praça do Comércio on the river, and Bairro Alto and Chiado mix bookshops and cafés by day with bars by night. Viewpoints such as Santa Luzia and Senhora do Monte frame red rooftops and shining water.

Top-ranked sights in Lisbon: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
