Some places feel like they were shaped by imagination. Sintra is one of them.
This enchanted town, tucked between mountains and wrapped in a mystical mist, has long attracted poets, kings, and travelers in search of inspiration. With the Sintra Unveiled tour, we offer you an authentic and unforgettable way to discover this Portuguese gem.
More than just a sightseeing trip, this experience takes you into the symbolic and aesthetic heart of Sintra. Throughout the day, you will visit the iconic Pena Palace, a vibrant and extravagant example of 19th-century Romanticism. Every detail, from the bold colors to the eclectic shapes, tells a story of passion, power, and artistic vision.
Quinta da Regaleira reveals itself like an open book filled with symbols. Hidden tunnels, towers, and lush gardens conceal secrets linked to Freemasonry, alchemy, and spirituality. Each corner invites exploration in a setting that feels both real and dreamlike.
Along the way, you will have the chance to feel the rhythm of Sintra’s historic center, with its traditional houses, the sweet aroma of pastries, and the calm pace of life surrounded by beauty. As a final highlight, the tour takes you to Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe, where the Atlantic Ocean crashes against the cliffs with poetic force.
