Park and National Palace of Pena

We start at your hotel heading towards an unforgettable day. Sintra is 30 km from Lisbon. Its micro-climate guarantees permanent freshness to the town and the growth of fantastic vegetation, making this a mysterious and deeply romantic place. The Pena National Palace, Quinta da Regaleira and Monserrate Palace stand out as the main monuments. Arriving in the town, we drive to the top of the Serra de Sintra and the Palácio da Pena, built on a rock 500m above sea level, dominating the entire coast as far as Lisbon. It represents one of the best expressions of 19th century architectural Romanticism in the world, and is, in fact, the Europe's first romantic palace, built around 30 years before the charismatic Schloss Neuschwanstein, in Bavaria, Germany

Quinta da Regaleira

Quinta da Regaleira, located in the heart of Sintra, is a monument full of mysteries and symbolism. Thw Owner Carvalho Monteiro, also known as Monteiro dos Mírios, was fascinated by alchemy, Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism and the Templars. The farm was transformed into a place full of mystical symbolism. Quinta da Regaleira was built to be a space for contemplation, meditation and celebration of ancient mysteries. Today, Quinta da Regaleira is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Sintra, offering visitors a journey full of mystery through secret tunnels, exotic gardens, lakes, caves and buildings, such as the famous Initiatory Well. This spiral well descends 27 meters into the earth and is surrounded by a staircase, also built in a spiral.

    We were referred to João by a trusted friend to have as a tour guide while in Lisbon. Our friends were planning a tour throughout Portugal with João while we only needed him during our stay in Lisbon. He was very easy to communicate with, which made the logistics of the trip smooth from the start. He contacted us right away to plan the two-day tour and to guide us through the steps of ordering the tickets we needed. We were in constant communication before our trip and upon arrival and on the day of the tour he arrived promptly at our hotel for pickup. We did a one day tour of Lisbon and a one day tour of Sintra and I would highly recommend touring with him for both sites while in Lisbon. João has a broad knowledge of Portuguese history, culture, landmarks, architecture as well as the very best place to find pastel de nata and ginjinha. He is also very kind, thoughtful and took his time to explain things and was patient with our seniors and children in the constant uphill hikes to various sites around the city. We also greatly enjoyed his humor and his photography skills! We have so many wonderful family photos he took for us throughout the day. João struck a good balance between being informative and letting us explore at our own pace, which made the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The itineraries were well thought out and gave us a true appreciation for the country. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with João and recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable guide while in Portugal.

    We had the most incredible day touring Sintra on our honeymoon, thanks to our amazing guide, João. He picked us up right from our hotel and took care of everything, expertly planning the day so we could experience the magic of Quinta da Regaleira, Pena Palace, and Monserrate Palace without ever feeling rushed. João’s deep knowledge of the history and hidden stories behind each palace brought the sites to life in a way we’ll never forget. His passion for the region is infectious, and his warm, professional approach made the entire experience seamless and unforgettable. We couldn’t recommend João more—he was a huge part of what made our trip so special, and we’ll definitely be booking with him again when we return to Portugal!

    Had a wondering day touring with Joao. He was an amazing host for the day ensuring my family had a great time. Two palaces at Sintra was a perfect number to see in one day along with the nice drive to Roca and Cascais. Joao was very knowledgeable about everything we visited especially the best photo spots!

    Joao is the most exceptional tour guide we have encountered in our many years of booking private tours on Viator. He is extremely knowledgeable about Portugal, Lisbon and their history——and on this tour about Sintra. He knows exactly when and where to take you at the various locations in order to avoid crowds and maximize the viewing and learning experience. He explains what you are viewing and seeing in great and easily understandable detail. Plus, he is extremely personable and fun to be with. In all, a great day spent that you will never forget. In you are in Lisbon, do not miss out on booking a private tour with Joao———you will be greatly satisfied and pleasantly surprised at what a great time you had with Joao———-and you’ll be wanting to come back to Lisbon to spend another day with him, as we did!

    The guide, Joao, is very knowledgeable and works very hard at pleasing and accommodating the entire group, 5 of us. His car was comfortable, and he is a safe and skilled driver. He has obviously studied a lot to be as knowledgeable as he is. I highly recommend him.
