About this tour
Duration: approx. 8 hours · Start times: 08:30, 09:00, 09:30, 10:00 · Group size: up to 8 people (private)
Experience two of Portugal’s most iconic highlights in one perfectly paced private day: the romantic hills of Sintra and the historic riverside monuments of Belém. With your own driver-guide and pick-up anywhere in Lisbon (hotel, apartment, cruise port, or airport), you’ll enjoy a seamless itinerary that combines fairytale scenery, culture, and unforgettable photo stops.
Begin in Sintra Village, a UNESCO-listed setting of charming streets, traditional shops, and classic local pastries. From there, visit the world-famous Pena Palace, Portugal’s most celebrated Romantic monument, known for its vibrant colors, dramatic terraces, and panoramic views.
After a relaxed lunch in Sintra, return to Lisbon’s riverside district of Belém, the heart of the Age of Discoveries. Stop at the Monument to the Discoveries, capture postcard photos at Belém Tower, and visit the magnificent Jerónimos Monastery (UNESCO)—one of the greatest architectural masterpieces in Portugal. End on a sweet note with the original Pastéis de Belém custard tart before your comfortable return to Lisbon.
Please note: Pena Palace uses a time-slot booking system, so entry times can sell out—especially in high season. When you choose “Tickets” at checkout, we will try to secure Pena Palace tickets for the most suitable available slot. If Pena Palace is sold out, we’ll arrange Quinta da Regaleira tickets as the alternative and your guide will adapt the route to keep the day smooth and enjoyable.
