6 tours · €47–€115 per person · ★ 4.9
The 6 small-group tours of Sintra on this page all name their cap in the listing, and we read each one by hand, keeping only operators rated 4.5★ or higher. Most cap at 8 people. The cheapest is a nine hour Sintra, Cascais and Pena Palace run at €47; the fullest is a Sintra day with Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira tickets included at €115. Two quieter options sit alongside them: an e-bike ride through the backroads between Cascais and Sintra, and a countryside food tour in a vintage car.
The cap matters more in Sintra than almost anywhere, because the palace rooms are narrow and the town clogs with coaches from mid-morning. Check the ticket line before you book: only the €115 option covers palace entry, and on the others you buy at the gate or online, which on busy days decides whether you get in at all. The long tours run 8 to 9 hours from Lisbon and lunch is at your own expense. The best reviewed small group Sintra tours come first below.
