Sintra and Cascais tour (with Filipe)
Sintra and Cascais
This time, I'm offering you an unforgettable day trip from Lisbon, including visits to Sintra's most iconic palaces and a tour of the village with its narrow, winding streets. Sintra is a UNESCO World Heritage Site near Lisbon, and it has already been described with many adjectives: mystical, magical, unique, quintessential, breathtaking, natural, wild, inspiring, romantic, and more. Afterwards, we'll head to the coast, to the westernmost point of mainland Europe (Cabo da Roca), and enjoy the scenery with some of the most beautiful beaches north of Lisbon. The Sintra coast connects to the Cascais coast via a magnificent mountain road, leading to beaches and the ocean. Cascais was originally a fishing village that has transformed into a kind of "Portuguese Saint-Tropez." We can find wonderful properties, restaurants, golf courses, swimming pools, or a casino (in Estoril), but also natural landscapes, always with the ocean, beaches, and, most often, sunshine. I'll pick you up wherever you are in Lisbon and drop you off wherever you want in the city. Plenty of good reasons to take a tour with me.
How long does this Lisbon tour last? The tour is designed to last 9 hours, but it can last much longer. It all depends on the group's interest. What are the prices? 1 to 4 people: €340.00 5 people: €410.00 (€82.00 per person) 6 people: €470.00 (€78.33 per person) 7 people: €520.00 (€74.28 per person) 8 people: €560.00 (€70.00 per person) Entrance fees to monuments are not included in the price. If you wish, I can purchase them in advance for you. Although I provide historical background on the places to visit, for logistical reasons, I will not accompany you inside the monuments. This will allow you to manage your visit time at your leisure and choose your own route through the magnificent gardens. What's included in the price? During the visit, weather permitting, I will provide a picnic lunch (prepared by me) where you will have the opportunity to sample several typical Portuguese products (cheese, cured meats, liqueurs, red wine, white wine, and other local specialties). Any additional time the tour may take is also included. If the weather is inclement, the picnic will not take place, and I will help you find an alternative on-site, to your liking, which is not included in the price shown.
