Sintra Tours from Lisbon

52 tours · €22–€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.

52 Sintra tours from €22. Private and small-group day trips from Lisbon, hotel pickup and free cancellation on most - easy to book online.

Planning a trip to Lisbon

Best time to visit

Lisbon rewards a visit year-round, but spring (March to May) and early autumn (September to October) are the sweet spot: warm days, lighter crowds and better prices than peak summer. July and August are hot and busiest, ideal for boat and beach day trips, while winters stay mild, quiet and great value.

Getting there & around

Most visitors land at Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS), about 20 minutes from the centre by metro or taxi. The city is walkable but steep, so lean on the historic trams, the metro and short rideshare hops between hills. Many tours include hotel pickup or start from central, easy-to-reach meeting points.
