A must-see palace. The coast is beautiful - Luis took us to all the places telling us the most important and entertaining. Plus he went up to the Pena Palace faster than us on the shuttle. Maybe it's Flash:) No jokes, it was an excellent tour with an excellent guide

The most authentic and informative tour - Valerio was absolutely fantastic in touring us through Sintra, Cabo da Roca, and Cascais. He is deeply passionate about his country’s history. As my significant other and I were the only ones on the tour for that day, we still had a wonderful experience and were able to have great conversations with Valerio. We hope to tour with him somewhere again!

Best tour guide for Sintra - Chuan was a wonderful tour guide full of fun facts and history. He navigated a very busy travel season easily. He was a joy to have as our guide! Don’t try to see Sintra on your own.

Sintra trip - Great experience. Our tour lady Philipa was AMAZING. She explained all the history and was great with ud. We can have fre time and enjoy as a family. Go to Piriquita a great bakery with local flavors.many tours head to the Palácio da Pena, one of Sintra’s most famous landmarks. This colorful, eccentric palace atop a hill offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The architectural style blends medieval, Renaissance, and Moorish influences, making it a photographer's dream. Inside, the palace is a maze of rooms, each more fascinating than the last, from lavishly decorated chambers to winding corridors.Sintra’s charm lies not only in its landmarks but also in its enchanting atmosphere. The narrow cobblestone streets, quaint shops, and cozy cafes all contribute to a sense of timelessness. A guided tour offers not just knowledge, but a deeper connection to the area, as locals share their love for Sintra’s rich cultural heritage. Overall, a tour in Sintra is a captivating and immersive experience that showcases the best of Portugal’s history, architecture, and natural beauty. Whether you’re a history buff, nature lover, or simply looking to escape the bustle of Lisbon, Sintra promises to leave you with unforgettable memories.

Great one day trip from Lisbon! - Our tour guide Valerio was very passionate and knowledgeable. He introduced us to the Portuguese history and culture. I learned a lot in just one day. He was the perfect tour guide for this one day trip from Lisbon to Cascais, Cado da Roca, Sintra and Pena Palace. I highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Lisbon.
