Highlights
Quinta da Regaleira after lunch, then sunset at Cabo da Roca, Europe's westernmost point, with a top-rated Portuguese wine of your choice. A tour our guests asked us to create. At the end of our Sintra days, people kept asking us for the same thing: to stop somewhere on the coast, watch the sun go down into the Atlantic, and enjoy it with a glass of good wine. So we built a whole afternoon around that moment. Then we head to the coast for the main moment: sunset at Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe. Away from the crowds at the monument, we walk a few minutes along the cliffs, lay out a blanket and open a top-rated Portuguese wine, red, white, sweet white or rosé, whichever you chose when you booked, served chilled in real glasses with a few local bites. Then you just watch the light go down over the ocean, while we take your photos in the golden light.

Itinerary
Your ticket is already included and pre-booked, so there's no queue. Descend the Initiation Well, 27 metres down nine spiral landings, then follow the tunnels out into the gardens, at your own pace.
When the day allows (October and March), we add a stop at Boca do Inferno near Cascais, where the waves crash into a collapsed sea cave.
Then we head to the coast for the main moment: sunset at Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe. Away from the crowds at the monument, we walk a few minutes along the cliffs, lay out a blanket and open a top-rated Portuguese wine, red, white, sweet white or rosé, whichever you chose when you booked, served chilled in real glasses with a few local bites. Then you just watch the light go down over the ocean, while we take your photos in the golden light. If fog covers the cape, which happens on this coast, we drive up to Peninha, a hilltop sanctuary that often sits above the clouds, with the same view of the Atlantic.

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.
