辛特拉的度假屋

Come with us and explore Sintra through the eyes of a local, exploring genuine out of the beaten track places, avoiding the crowds of mass tourism, without missing the main attractions. We will start by approaching the cultural part, knowing Sintra’s fascinating history and development while seeing it’s most iconic monuments. You will get lost in QUINTA DA REGALEIRA magic gardens. ( Guided tour insed not included) Then we will STOP FOR A NICE TYPICAL LUNCH on one of my favorite local family’s restaurants. After this I will take you to the place that saw me grow, a ROMANTIC PICTUREQUE VILLAGE (is like turning the clock back a few 100 years), on the top off the mountain with privileged views to the region where we can enjoy some peace and quiet! At last we will do an OFF ROAD SAFARI, discovering the most hidden places in the natural park and coast line, where we can feel the true magic of Sintra, admiring beautiful scenic viewpoints lost in nature to places like CABO DA ROCA, ADRAGA BEACH and MORE ( I don’t tell more because I wanna keep them secret). This experience is a product of my entire life, my passions, my love for nature and culture. Designed for you to understand why Sintra is such a magical place and why the special relationship between men and this place. Will be an unforgettable day:) Other things to note Lunch and Tickets are not included. The experience finish time can vary

(I have an online experience on Airbnb about Portugal's History, if you are planning on coming to Portugal that may be a fun and engaging starting point! Take a look: https://www.airbnb.pt/experiences/1936561 ) Sintra is an enchanted place. Not even the most romantic poet could fully describe its beauty. A fascinating combination of episodes, some natural and others historical, that produced a remarkable result. From a king who was more interested in gardening than in politics, to an extravagant Brazilian merchant who decided to build in the garden of his palace a spiral that falls into darkness. We will walk through these stories while exploring the viewpoints and hidden places that allow us to see the many faces of Sintra. In the morning I will challenge you to explore the mysterious Quinta da Regaleira, so you can plunge into the darkness. After lunch, we will stop at the colorful and emblematic Pena Palace, which offers incredible views from the top of the mountain. We will also visit the westernmost point of the European continent and cross the magical mountain forest on our way to the Pena Palace. The perfect finale will be the coastal ride that will take us to the beautiful town of Cascais. IMPORTANT NOTES: - For groups of 4 to 8 people, I will offer to pick up and drop off in Lisbon for free - Entrance fees, food and beverages are not included

Imagine kings and queens in mountain-top palaces, a kaleidoscope of bright colours. Magical forests filled with fairies, hidden treasure, or even ghosts. Some kids grew up dreaming of fairy tales. But we didn’t have to imagine. Our hometown, Sintra, is a region filled with real life castles and mysterious legends. Join us as we explore this UNESCO World Heritage town known for its romantic architecture and landscaping. We’ll start the day with a visit to the magical Quinta da Regaleira, a palace and gardens filled with mystery, metaphors and underground tunnels. We’ll take in the view of all five palaces and the 8th-century Moorish Castle as we cruise around in one of our restored convertible UMM jeeps. We can take you off-road to epic lookouts and secret spots other visitors can’t reach. Next stop, lunch at a traditional Portuguese restaurant in a small village. Think fresh fish or tasty meat on the wood-fired grill and plenty of wine! After a quick cafezinho (coffee) we’ll get back on the road passing through dense forests to the 12th century Peninha Sanctuary. Built 500 metres above sea level, from here you’ll take in 360-degree views of the forest, the Atlantic Ocean, Lisbon, Sintra and Cascais. The day finishes with a visit to Pena Palace, the red-and-yellow Disney-like castle that sits atop Sintra’s second highest peak. Other things to note Lunch and palace entry tickets are not included!
