About this experience
As locals of Sintra, we’ve designed this tour to offer an authentic experience beyond the typical tourist route. Our guides are Sintra residents with backgrounds in archaeology, history, hospitality, and tourism, sharing stories and hidden corners that most visitors never discover.
The experience is divided into three themes: Culture & Heritage, with viewpoints and explanations of landmarks such as Pena Palace, the Moorish Castle, and Sintra’s historic center; Mountain & Nature, exploring forest roads, hidden viewpoints, the Sintra hills; and Coast & Ocean, featuring Cabo da Roca, dramatic cliffs, local villages, and Atlantic beaches.
Choose from our vintage convertible jeeps for small groups, larger jeeps for up to 8 passengers, or a comfortable minivan if you prefer comfort over adventure.
Every tour is customizable, whether you prefer palaces, hidden spots, photography, nature, local food, or a relaxed day discovering Sintra like a local.
