Description
Sintra is a Portuguese town nestled in the hills of the Sintra Mountains. Hidden among the pine-covered hills we discover whimsical palaces, extravagant villas and the ruins of a Moorish castle. The variety of fascinating historical buildings and natural scenery combine to perfection. Here we find one of the finest palaces in Europe, the Pena Palace, which was one of the main residences of the Portuguese royal family during the 19th century. Cascais is a traditional Portuguese fishing village located on the coastline of Lisboa. Historically, Cascais was the chosen summer retreat of the Portuguese nobility, and today, the town is an elegant fusion of decorative nineteenth-century architecture and modern tourist facilities. It has a historic centre of cobbled streets offering luxurious mansions, an imposing fortress and fascinating museums.
What we are going to do?
We will meet in Lisboa and head to the Pena Palace in Sintra. We will take a guided tour of the gardens and interiors of the palace. We will go down to the town, where we can stroll through the streets or taste regional products such as the famous travesseiros and queijadas de Sintra. We will continue the route visiting Cascais next to the "Boca do Inferno" (Hell's Mouth), a unique natural chasm located in the cliffs of the coast. Finally, we will finish the tour sailing along the coast of Cascais and Estoril until we reach Belém, the district of Lisboa that honours the memory of the time of the Portuguese maritime discoveries.
