5Best tour ever!
Our driver, Pablo, picked us up right on time with a big smile. We drove everywhere including Cabo de Roca, Sintra, and along the coast. His knowledge kept us interested in everything about the area. We started at 9:00am and returned to Cascais at 5:000pm. A great day!
4Great day
We enjoyed Sintra we didn’t get to do everything because the storm knocked down trees. The driver kept saying he is sorry because we couldn’t see everything.
5The driver/guide Pedro...
The driver/guide Pedro was really good. His knowledge and preparation were first class and ensured that all the participants got the very best out of all the locations visited. His recommendations on lunch locations and food were also great.
5Wonderful experience!
This tour is an absolute must if you're staying in or around Cascais! Pedro was lovely and extremely knowledgeable, and all the sites were fantastic. The Boca do Inferno was a highlight and unlike anything we had seen before. The pace of the tour was also perfect, with a great balance between guided walks with Pedro and down time to explore on our own. Overall we had a wonderful day - highly recommend this tour!!
5The perfect way to explore the area!
This was the perfect way to explore this beautiful area of Portugal! Pedro was a fantastic guide - very knowledgeable in both history and legends of the palaces, geography, culture, and country. Highly recommend!

About Cascais
Cascais is a former fishing village on the Atlantic coast west of Lisbon, with sheltered beaches, a seafront promenade and a royal past.
Cascais lies at the mouth of the Tagus estuary, roughly thirty kilometres west of Lisbon, and began as a fishing village. King Luís I made it the royal summer residence in 1870, and the aristocracy followed, building villas and palaces along the shore. The old centre has patterned stone pavements, a marina and small beaches tucked in the bay, and the Casa das Histórias Paula Rego is a museum of that painter's work in a red building.
Top-ranked sights in Cascais: Boca do Inferno, Marina de Cascais, Museu Condes de Castro Guimarães.
