Detailed itinerary

1
Stop 1

Step into a real-life fairytale on this private family-friendly tour of the Pena Palace, Sintra’s most iconic and colorful landmark. Skip the long ticket lines and head straight inside to explore the romantic architecture, vibrant tilework, and royal chambers of this 19th-century masterpiece.

2
Stop 2

Explore Sintra’s charming historic center, where narrow cobbled streets lead to artisan shops, local cafés, and the iconic National Palace with its twin chimneys. Taste the famous travesseiros at Periquita pastry shop, and step into history at Lawrence’s Hotel, once visited by Lord Byron. Surrounded by lush hills and romantic architecture, it’s a perfect blend of culture, flavor, and fairytale charm.

Stop 3

Step into a world of mystery, symbolism, and enchantment at Quinta da Regaleira, one of Sintra’s most intriguing and beloved landmarks. This romantic estate, built in the early 20th century, is filled with secret tunnels, hidden passages, lush gardens, and architecture inspired by mythology, alchemy, and Freemasonry.

Follow your guide through the Initiation Well, a spiral staircase that descends deep into the earth like something from a fantasy novel. Wander through gothic towers, underground grottos, and serene forested paths that spark the imagination of both adults and children.

Regaleira is more than a monument — it’s an experience where history, nature, and mysticism come together in perfect harmony.

Stop 4

Stand at the edge of the continent at Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe. With its dramatic cliffs plunging into the Atlantic Ocean, powerful winds, and sweeping ocean views, it’s a place where nature takes center stage.

Marked by a historic lighthouse and a stone monument engraved with the words of Portuguese poet Luís de Camões, Cabo da Roca offers a unique sense of awe and wonder — perfect for breathtaking photos and quiet reflection.

A must-see stop for anyone visiting Sintra or the coast, this wild and windswept landscape is truly unforgettable.

From a humble Roman outpost to a royal retreat, Cascais has transformed into a vibrant seaside gem. Once a quiet fishing village, it became the summer playground of kings — and today, it shines as a stylish beach resort, blending historic charm with coastal elegance.
