• 5Exploring Sintra!

  My husband and I had a wonderful time exploring Sintra on this 2 seater EV! The directions Victoria gave us was perfect. It was routed so that we hit all the major attractions and very easy to follow. We were able to explore on our own time and at our own pace. Victoria provided guidance for the Pena palace and gave use local tips on the best way to enjoy the gardens. Driving was easy even on the main roads we took to explore the coast. We got lots of looks in the car!! I think they were jealous at how easy it was for us to park anywhere we wanted and get from stop to stop. It was a blast and would 100% recommend to get around sintra!

• 5Perfect Way to Explore Sintra and the Coast

  This was the highlight of our trip. I would absolutely recommend doing the self-driving tour. The owner made everything super easy and was always available to communicate. We loved exploring Sintra and the coast at our own pace. The car was easy to drive, the navigation was straightforward, and the customer service was amazing.

  My husband & I had a fabulous time!. Victoria couldn’t have been better. She was extremely personable and a precious young lady. As soon as we met her, we knew we were in good hands. It was also reassuring to know that she was able to track us and was in constant communication throughout our experience eapeciallly since we are from the USA. I recommended this tour and hope Victoria is your guide.

  Nowroj did an amazing tour. He was so knowledgeable and entertaining. Answered questions very well! The GPS sent us on a wild goose chase and he talked us through how to get there and where we might park. He met us where he said he would and we have a fantastic tour.

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.
