DESCRIPTION

 

Travel from Lisbon in the comfort of one of our state-of-the-art mini buses and vans and discover the magical town of Sintra, a World Heritage Site of UNESCO and fall in love by its charming palaces, regal manors and lush, decadent gardens. Everywhere you turn, you find yourself immersed in the details; either it is the secluded alleyways envolved in vegetation, or the dramatic sceneries from the many vantage points above, the town will certainly enchant you.

Afterall, Sintra is actually known amongst locals for being "the national capital of romance" - a place once filled with mystical cults and rituals, secret affairs and unspken mysteries. 

It is easy to be moved by the town itself, but as you immerse yourself in its pituresque streets and alleys, it is the magnificence of its landmarks, harmoniously involved in the local flora, that will ultimately take your breath away. From the imposing and all-seeing Palacio da Pena (the 'Feather's Palace'), the royal residence of several of the country's historic monarchs to the Palacio da Vila (the 'Town's Palace'), an aristocratic site dated from the 14th century and the esoteric mysteries of the Palace and Villa of Regaleira; along with the intrincacy of its gardens.

A stop-over for lunch will take place in the heart of town, where you will have the opportunity of experiencing some of the region's fabulous cuisine - including the 'travesseiro', a smooth pastry and local delicacy. 

You will return to Lisbon upon the visit in the same way as you came, in the cool climate of your tour coach - only richer with the experience.
