1. **Lisbon** (10m) - Pickups are only available in the Lisbon area. Our tour starts here.
2. **Sintra National Palace** (pass by, no stop) - The Sintra National Palace, also known as Palácio da Vila, was one of the palaces used by the Portuguese Royal Family. The monument, of medieval, gothic, manueline, renaissance and romantic architecture, is an "ex-libris" of Sintra.
3. **Park and National Palace of Pena** (1h) - Known as the sacred jewel that crowns the Sintra Mountains, the National Palace of Pena, one of the greatest examples of Romanticism in Portugal, appears, through the fog characteristic of the region, with its colorful hues, as if it were a fairy tale. The whole scenario...
4. **Castelo dos Mouros** (1h) - Right on top of the mountain is the Castelo dos Mouros, a fortification whose walls wind up the mountain between rocks and cliffs that dates back to the time of the Muslim occupation of the Iberian Peninsula. From here you can enjoy a unique panoramic view of the town, the...
5. **Centro Historico de Sintra** (1h) - In the heart of the mysterious and charming town of Sintra, you will have the opportunity to visit the traditional Portuguese commerce, buy souvenirs and taste the traditional regional pastry, namely Travesseiros and Queijadas de Sintra.

8. **Cabo Da Roca** (45m) - The next stop is at the westernmost point of Portugal and Europe, one of the most emblematic places in Portugal with a view of the sea as far as the eye can see.
9. **Azenhas do Mar** (30m) - (Optional) This village on the Sintra coast, in the parish of Colares, is worthy of a postcard. The white houses go down the cliff to the beach that, with its ocean pool, delights visitors. Enjoy the calm that this place offers you.
10. **Cascais** (45m) - Known as the Riviera Portuguesa, the town of Cascais has a unique charm. Its streets full of traditional commerce and restaurants, its beaches and the 19th century palaces by the sea make this town a mandatory stop.
