This tour combines the very best of Sintra’s palaces and Portugal’s Atlantic coast into one seamless, private experience. Instead of choosing between castles, gardens, or the sea, you enjoy all of them in a single day — from UNESCO-listed monuments and romantic palaces to vineyard landscapes, dramatic cliffs, and charming seaside towns.
What truly sets this tour apart is its flexibility and personalization. You can decide on the day which monuments to visit, adjust the pace, and choose how much time to spend in each location, with guidance from a knowledgeable local expert. Traveling in a private vehicle allows you to avoid the rush of large groups and enjoy Sintra, Cabo da Roca, and Cascais in a relaxed, comfortable, and fully tailored way.
