Highlights
Climb aboard our vintage Portuguese 4x4s and tackle the best of the Sintra. You’ll explore the mysterious Quinta da Regaleira and eat a traditional Portuguese lunch (with wine, of course) before cruising off-road through Sintra’s lush forests, to emerge at the seaside cliffs of mainland Europe’s westernmost point, Cabo da Roca. Passing from hilltop castles to the sheer coastline of the UNESCO world heritage landscape. We take you to secret lookouts and hidden beaches. In summer, feel the breeze whip through your hair as we bounce along off-road tracks with the roof off. In the cooler months we keep the roof on, turn the music up, splash through puddles of mud as we swerve past house-sized boulders, pine forests and giant ferns. This is why we love to go off-road, play epic tunes all day long and give you the chance to taste Sintra’s traditional sweet “travesseiro” pastry and homemade “ginja” liqueur. Join us for an unforgettable day of adventure, laughs and local legends.

5Best day and guide in Sintra 🙌
We did 10 days in Portugal and this was the best day by far. Sooooo much fun, Andreas was the best guide we’ve ever met, so much knowledge and really wanted us to have the best time. Genuinely the best guy! The whole trip was really special from the palace to the laughs we had with the other couple, the incredible food at local restaurant to off roading through the hills. We didn’t want it to end! Thanks so much!!!
5Best expereince of our trip
This was one of the top highlights of our 11-day trip to Portugal. Our driver was excellent. He was filling in for someone who had a broken foot and normally worked maintaining all their wonderful jeeps. We always felt safe while having some fun too. Each stop was excellent. From the gardens to the incredible lunch in a chief's personal home, I could not recommend a better way to spend your day. You get a great sense of the Portuguese culture and the wonderful people there.
5A fun adventure thru Sintra
It is longer than expected. Was a lot of fun. Love was amazing but VERY filling! Ruben was great. So glad we chose the other palace to go thru.
5A fun day trip to Sintra.
We had so much fun with our guide Guierme on this tour. We visited some beautiful spots and avoided the tourist crowds. We also stopped for a delicious Portuguese lunch in a neat small town. Highly recommend this tour.
5Fantastic tour of Sintra - excellent communication and organisation throughout. Beautiful scenery and vistas. Must do!!!
Excellent communication with the office. Very efficient and responsive. Our guide Claudio was warm, friendly, attentive, enthusiastic and by the end of the day we felt that we had made friends with him and our fellow travellers. Lots of interesting information and amazing sights. Would definitely recommend!
5Amazing tour guide and beautiful vistas
We just purchased the jeep tour for my son's 21st birthday. Bruno was our guide and driver. Bruno and the company went beyond expectations to make our day special. Bruno lead with current and in depth information for the Quinta da Regaleira, making the stories extra interesting. From there we stopped for a truly memorable family owned restaurant for lunch that was fantastic, and jumped in a convertible umm jeep for an unforgettable ride through open country to the coast. We stopped at private places with amazing vista before dropping back down to Caiscais. Our tour guide was amazing all the way through and made us feel comfortable and kept us to to date in each area. We truly were thankful to having Bruno lead our group.

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.
