Sintra with a Local (Pick up Lisbon)
Hi everyone!! The idea of this experience is to provide the best possible full day in our hometown. Knowing Sintra like the back of our hands and all the magic it has to offer, we came up with what we believe to be the most amazing and complete way of experiencing its wonders in one full day! - Start the day in Lisbon in front of Dona Maria II Theater - Our first stop will be at the historic center of Sintra to discover its beautiful labyrinth like streets. We will talk about what makes Sintra so special while discovering its secrets and taste its unique pastry. - We will then discover the Palace of Quinta da Regaleira and get lost in its 4 hectares of mysticism and romantic arquitecture and gardens. - From here we will leave the tourists behind and go through the very picturesque and hidden towns of Colares, Penedo, Almoçageme etc. to reach the open atlantic coastline. - On the coastline we will go for a waterfront lunch before exploring its brethtaking cliff views and Cabo da Roca - The end of the World! -We will then have the best postcard like views of the Pena Palace and finish the tour with a visit to this unique romantic Palace. :) Other things to note Pick up and drop off in front of Dona Maria II Theater (15 walk from most areas on the city) Meals and Monuments fees are not included.

Lisboa Sailing Tour
Lisbon's main monuments, such as the Belém Tower and Padrão dos Descobrimentos, are made to honor maritime discoveries. And so it's best to see them from the Tagus River. Just like MAAT or Cristo Rei, which are purposely facing Rio. The Terreiro do Paço was the main port where the ships with goods arrived, so it was also known as Praça do Comercio. Come and live the true experience of Portuguese navigators, accompanied by a glass of wine!
