Best of Sintra & Cascais from Lisbon – Private Tour

This full day tour departing from Lisbon, embarks on a journey to Sintra, home to some of Portugal’s most enchanting landmarks. Your first stop is the magical Quinta da Regaleira, a place of unmatched cultural and natural beauty.

Together with Sintra’s Historic Center, the Quinta da Regaleira is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This extraordinary estate is one of the finest examples of 20th-century revivalist architecture. It features a majestic palace, a charming chapel, sprawling gardens filled with exotic trees, and a labyrinth of underground tunnels connecting different parts of the property.

As you explore, you’ll uncover the intriguing symbols and hidden meanings behind its design—mysteries tied to Freemasonry and the Knights Templar. From Gothic towers and fortified stone walls to the famous Initiation Well, every corner tells a story.

The adventure continues with a visit to the Pena Palace, one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985. This striking palace, perched high on the Sintra hills, blends multiple architectural styles—including Neo-Gothic, Neo-Manueline, and Neo-Moorish—resulting in a truly unique and colorful masterpiece. Inside, admire the intricate details, stunning tile work, and elegant trompe-l’œil painted walls.

Next, we’ll head to Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of continental Europe, where you’ll have free time to enjoy the dramatic ocean views and capture unforgettable photos.

On the return to Lisbon, the scenic route takes us through Cascais, a vibrant coastal town celebrated for its connection to the sea. Here, you’ll pass Guincho Beach, a paradise for surf lovers and one of Portugal’s best spots for extreme water sports.
