Great hiking experience with a local guide. He was really knowledgeable having lived here almost all his life, and was able to take us to see various sights, explain the history, as well as go on less known trails we wouldn't have gone without a guide.

Beautiful day to hike in the Sintra Natural Park. Our guide Pedro was so informative not only about the forest and nature of the area but a lot of Portugal history overall. We learned so much about the importance of cork which we had been seeing everywhere. The views over Cascais and the ocean are breathtaking. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience

If you are Italian and want to discover the wonderful Sintra you can only rely on Stefania to do a tour! Sintra is very dislocated and has points of interest at great distances from each other. We only realized after we agreed to do it that actually the guided tour was the best choice. The value for money compared to other options, such as tourist buses and buses, is definitely affordable. A fantastic experience absolutely recommended!
