Queluz Sintra, Cascais and Estoril - Private Tour

Escape the hustle and bustle of the Portuguese capital and explore Portugal's natural beauty.

  • 9 hours
  • Guide included
  • Admire the National Palace of Queluz
  • Fall in love with the natural beauty of Sintra
  • Wander though the picturesque village of Cascais

Start the tour with a stop at the National Palace of Queluz. Initially, a rest stop for the nobility, it later became the official residence of Prince John VI. Its beautiful gardens and rococo architecture dazzle visitors with its sumptuousness.

Continue to the centre of Sintra, where you can visit the castle or the National Palace. Stroll through the colourful streets of the village, contrasting with the bright green of the mountain. The morning will not end before a stop at the Quinta de Monserrate and Quinta da Regaleira, a fruit mansion imagined by a man in love with the arts.

If you choose the lunch option, you can taste one of the best Portuguese dishes. If not, there are plenty of places for you to eat nearby. The afternoon begins with a visit to the most famous and magical palace on this tour, the Pena Palace. Built 500 meters above sea level, it is considered one of the most beautiful palaces in Europe and in the world. Its colourful architectural extravagance, with its neo-Moorish element, gives off an exotic character that is accentuated by the lush vegetation of Pena Park.

The return to Lisbon passes through the picturesque village of Cascais, where you have free time to sit by the sea, sip a beer with a seafood dish or eat one of the best ice creams in the world. Back on the road, pass the Estoril coast with its vast and beautiful beaches. In Lisbon, you are returned to your hotel, with the certainty of having spent a memorable day in dreamy locations.
