Explore one of Portugal's most magical destinations on an excursion that takes you to three of Sintra's most iconic sites.
Start at the Pena Palace, one of the jewels of romantic architecture. Situated at the top of the Serra de Sintra, this palace stands out for its vibrant colours and architectural details that blend Manueline, Gothic and Moorish influences. Stroll around its terraces and gardens while enjoying a spectacular panoramic view.
Next, visit Quinta da Regaleira, one of the most mysterious places in Portugal. Its esoteric gardens hide secret passages, caves and buildings full of symbolism. The highlight is the Initiation Well, a spiral staircase that represents a mystical journey.
As well as the monuments, you'll have the chance to explore Sintra's historic centre. Wander through its narrow streets, discover local craft shops and taste the region's gastronomic specialities, such as the famous travesseiros and queijadas.
