Experience Sintra and Cascais through the eyes of a local on a private full‐day tour designed for travelers who want a relaxed, authentic and informative day. Instead of rushing through crowded palace interiors, this tour focuses on the best outdoor viewpoints, hidden spots and panoramic locations that most visitors never find.
In Sintra, you’ll enjoy stunning views of the main palaces — Pena Palace, Moorish Castle and the National Palace — while learning about the region’s legends, history and royal stories. We also make an optional stop at a traditional bakery so you can try Sintra’s famous pastries (not included).
From the mountains of Sintra, we follow the wild Atlantic coastline to Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe, before ending the day in the elegant seaside town of Cascais.
This is a comfortable, private and unhurried experience, ideal for travelers who want to explore at their own pace, avoid the crowds and return with great memories and photos.

Thanks to Rita, my children and I had an absolutely wonderful day. We were able to see so much in a very comfortable and relaxed way. We enjoyed visiting Pena Palace without any stress, discovered beautiful spots by the ocean, and learned a lot about the region and its history during the relaxed drive with her. We never could have experienced so much on our own in such a short time. The day ended perfectly with her great recommendations for a delicious dinner and some very special ice cream. We truly appreciate everything she did to make this such a memorable day!

This tour with Rita was a great way to see a lot within a day. Rita was great and very flexible with what we wanted to see. She was knowledgeable and took us to the best viewpoints. We were able to have a delicious breakfast at a local cafe in Sintra per Rita’s recommendation which was fantastic. Rita also provided multiple resources and recommendations for the rest of our stay and offered to be our local resource while we were here. I would recommend this tour for small groups looking for a personalized experience.

I made a tour between Sintra and Cascais with Rita and could not be more satisfied. It was an incredible experience from beginning to end. Rita is extremely friendly, professional and knows the region very well, sharing curiosities and stories that made the tour even more special. Everything was organized very carefully, without rush, allowing to take advantage of each place to the fullest. I always felt comfortable and well accompanied. I highly recommend this tour and without a doubt Rita as a guide. A memorable experience!
