The weather was a nice break from the heat of Lisbon. All around fab experience”
Hike from Sintra’s Pena Palace to Cabo da Roca and Adraga Beach on a small-group day trip from Lisbon with transport and a guide.
“The tour of the outside grounds of the palace and the hike to Cabo da Roca were both great. Our guide was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of fun facts along the way. The logistics were a bit chaotic as we were together with another group that was doing the palace and wine tasting and there were a couple of times where we had to wait for our transportation but overall a worthwhile tour.”

Hike Sintra from Lisbon to Pena Palace, Moorish Castle, and Quinta da Regaleira with a private guide, forest trails, and round-trip transport.
“We booked this tour with Viator months before, but was abruptly cancelled by its sub-contractor on the tour date. We expect that Viator would offer a substitute guide. But it was simply cancelled. We understand it was an emergency that caused the cancellation, but it was something that we have planned months ago for this short trip. We ended up doing the Sintra tours ourselves but with some challenges. We did enjoy it though.”
