The palace itself is divided into two wings: the 19th-century wing constructed by King Ferdinand II and the former Manueline monastery of the Order of St. Jerome. A third architectural component, a fanciful representation of an imaginary castle with walkable walls that includes battlements, watchtowers, an entrance tunnel, and even a drawbridge, encircles these wings.

Great way to travel from Lisbon to Porto

I had a wonderful experience with my tour from Lisbon to Porto. We were able to experience multiple stops as a way to get from Lisbon to Porto. Our tour guide, Tiago was so knowledgeable. He told great stories as we traveled. I learned so much about each stop of our tour from Tiago. It was safe, extremely comfortable, and efficient. We saw absolutely beautiful sites at our tour stops. We had time to explore and eat. I highly recommend if trying to find a unique way to see multiple cities as you get from one destination to another. Absolutely unforgettable experience!

Sintra half day tour

Absolutely the best tour guide we have had on a 14 day Mediterranean Cruise. Joao Salvador Cunha went above and beyond for an incredible journey through Sintra and the coast. Private tour just my wife and I and a very reasonable price. Unlike other tours where you receive 20 minutes free time to walk around, Joao gave us two hours to tour the Biester Estate and grounds and the town of Sintra. The estate tour is fairly new and the tourists don’t flock there. Self guided tour and you feel like you’re the only ones there. It was the 5 hour half day tour where we were picked up and dropped off at our hotel in Lisbon. Ask for Joao to be your driver/guide; the best choice you will ever make for a tour!!

This was so fun....

This was so fun. Francisco was a great tour guide. He was very informative and knew all the tricks to getting us to the right places at the right time. This also took the stress out of having to figure out the logistics of getting up the mountain to the palace and castle. Enjoyable experience all around.

Fabulous Day with Ricardo

We could not have asked for a more perfect day exploring Sintra, Cabo de Roca, and Cascais with Ricardo! He was a delight to get to know and took us around Sintra like a true local. We loved getting to know him and will definitely rebook with him when we return to Portugal!

Sintra is a must do activity

You can hit all the main attractions in a half day tour of sintra. The tour guide was great and gave us lots of tips and expert background on each location. Make sure to buy tickets to the castles ahead of time to save time and get the best time slots as they sell out fast. Even if you don’t get tickets to enter the castles, they are enjoyable enough from the outside and you still get to see amazing views. Also gave us the inside scoop on the best places to eat while in Portugal. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it.

Private tour in Sintra, Cabo da Roca, Cascais. Wonderful day.

Excellent experience! We...

Excellent experience! We loved this tour. It was highly customizable and we were able to go and do only what we wanted to in the moment. Our guide, Ginar, was very knowledgeable about the history, vegetation, and current affairs of the region. He gave us excellent recommendations and steered us clear of the “traps” where there were lengthy waits for little reward. We had a truly wonderful day. I cannot recommend this tour more!
