Sintra and Cascais Small Group Tour from Lisbon
Your morning begins with a convenient pickup directly from central Lisbon. In lieu of finding your own way on the train, enjoy a comfortable and scenic drive through the countryside, with just your local guide and a small group to accompany you. On arrival at Sintra—one of Portugal’s foremost (and most-visited) UNESCO World Heritage sites—glide past the lines and head right in, thanks to your pre-booked tickets. Head straight to Pena Palace, known for its ultra-colorful design, where your English-speaking guide will share a wealth of stories about its history. After enough free time to purchase your lunch (with optional baked goods from a traditional bakery) in Sintra’s city center, enjoy a bonus excursion when you head to the wild Atlantic coast. See pounding waves at Cabo da Roca—Continental Europe’s westernmost point—before heading to Cascais: one of the area’s top beach resorts. Have more than one hour to see Cascais' Old Town, admire its marina, and treat yourself to gelato before returning to your original departure point in Lisbon.
