Sintra Tours from Lisbon

49 tours · €30–€295 per person · ★ 4.9

Sintra is the day trip everyone wants when they're staying in Lisbon, and a guided tour is the simplest way to do it right. Book a Sintra tour from Lisbon and the driving, the palace tickets and the route all get sorted for you, so you spend the day exploring instead of wrestling with train timetables and ticket queues.

The thing to check when you compare Sintra tours is which palaces you actually get inside. We'd make sure Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira are both on the itinerary, since those are the two not to skip. Plenty of day trips also fold in Cabo da Roca and the coast at Cascais, a clever way to see more in a single full day. Want to linger at each stop? A private tour lets you set the pace, while a small-group excursion keeps the price friendly, with hotel pickup on most.

49 Sintra tours from €30. Private and small-group day trips from Lisbon, hotel pickup and free cancellation on most - easy to book online.
