In Sintra you want time to stop!
The Portuguese village that Lord Byron describes as a "Glorioso Eden" maybe because of the vegetation surrounding it, the moose-covered stones or the vigorous treadmills surrounding the trees.
World Heritage Site by UNESCO, is a place of great cultural and historical wealth, with monuments dating back to various eras and architectural styles.
We highlight the Palacio da Pena, whose eccentric architecture and location on the top of the Serra de Sintra provide stunning views over the region.
Another highlight is the Quinta da Regaleira, a true maze of esoteric symbolism, where architecture and nature merge in a unique way.
The day ends with a visit to the charming village of Cascais, one of the most sought after destinations on the Portuguese coast. Cascais is known for its narrow and picturesque streets, inviting beaches and its rich history as an ancient fishing village.

5.00Luis Travel had been highly recommended by friends who frequently visit family in Cascais and use the company for airport transfers to/from Lisbon. My first booking was the day tour to Sintra and Cascais in September 2024; arriving at the entrance to Pena Palace, my wonderful driver José learned that it had been closed without prior notice due to major brush fires in the area; Quinta da Regaleira, our next scheduled stop, was also closed. So José made a few phone calls and quickly improvised an alternate itinerary for the day that suited my interests perfectly. Returning to Portugal a few weeks ago, I was eager to visit the sites that had been closed in 2024 and booked a custom tour with Luis Travel, as well as an airport transfer that included a stop at a museum on the day I arrived in Lisbon. This time my driver for both trips was Luis himself! I couldn't have had a better experience on each day. Both Luis and José were knowledgeable about Portuguese history, geography and culture, a genuine pleasure to talk with during the journeys, and excellent drivers.
Great service, reliable

5.00We use them round-trip from the airport to Cascais and they were fantastic. Our return trip to the airport was at an ungodly hour of the morning and still they were there on time. We also purchased a tour to Lisbon and another tour to Sintra and they were also fun and informative thanks to our guide Tiago. Vehicles are spotless and very easy to understand as English perfect. I would highly recommend and we would use in the future.
This was a beautiful...

5.00The whole experience was enjoyable. Tiago was a great guide with his witty and easy to get along attitude. He went above and beyond our expectations. We were exhausted and satisfied at the end of a long (8hrs) tour day. Would book again.
A perfect day.

Fully maximized the limited time I had and made the best day touring Sintra!

5.00I used Luis Travel both for an airport transport and a day trip to Sintra — I was in amazing hands! Both days they were early, so friendly, so helpful, so knowledgeable. On the tour to Sintra, I was solo and wanted to maximize a day I had in town. Luis made it so I didn’t have to think. I got picked up right in front of hotel, taken to the best drop off spots to enjoy different sites with the limited time I had. During the ride in between, he shared all sorts of relevant info so that I could learn some history and context. I felt like I was family - treated with such kindness and good nature. My only regret is not having more time to have been able to tour even more. In line for Pena Castle, I talked to people who had been exhausted by the train and bus from Lisbon to get to the same place I had been dropped off in a very comfortable way. It’s for sure worth the extra to hire them. Focus on the fun and let them handle the logistics! Best decision! When I come back, and when I have any friend that travels to Portugal, I’ll for sure be getting in touch with Luis Travel! Portuguese, local company, trustworthy good people — highly recommend.
A Wonderful Excursion with an Amazing Company! Kid Friendly

5.00Our guide Tiago was amazing. He was professional and knowledgeable and shared some hidden gems. The car was clean, comfortable and the company provided bottled water. I highly recommend for all types of travelers and they even had a car seat for kids!
