Sintra Tur

We really enjoyed this tour with our tour guide, Ruth. She shared a lot of interesting information that made each site more enjoyable, and her high level of energy kept us going through a long day of walking and sight-seeing. There was some free time given in Sintra, so we could have lunch and sample some local pastries. Bottled water was sold on the bus, which came in handy because it was so hot that day. It was a very well organized and fun tour. Ideal if you aren't in Lisbon very long and want to pack a lot into a day.

Firstly, I do not regret going on this tour, and most of the locations are must-see for a trip to Lisbon. This was my second trip to Lisbon and Sintra. As we went in August, it was peak tourist season and extremely busy. Additionally, we were unable to get a quick bus back down from Pena, due to the large volume of other visitors. While the listing mentions all private transportation, this was not. We did wait for some time, but of course this was out of the control of the guides. An important note - the listing mentioning "moderate" walking is definitely underselling how much walking you will have to do on this tour. There are lots of hills and lots of steps, so if you do have mobility constraints please keep that in mind. As far as the stop locations, I think Cascais was not really worth it. Unfortunately, you do not get to visit Cabo Da Roca, just see it from the bus. Perhaps that was due to our delay at Pena, but I did find that to be misleading. All that said, Sintra, Pena, and Quinta da Regaleira are absolutely gorgeous, and this is a great way to see the most, if not too much, on your day trip. I had considered driving to these attractions and I am very glad I did not. Finally, our guides Bruno and Myriam were very knowledgable and had great recommendations for exploring during free times. The radio monitors are an excellent touch so that you can actually hear all the interesting historical facts. I do recommend this tour, but hopefully you are not going during peak season like I was!

Excursión imprescindible Sintra , visitado la Quinta de Regaleira y el palacio de Pena, el guia nos recogio en Lisboa y ya en la furgoneta empezo a contarnos la historia. Al ser tan turistico es mejor de esta manera ya que Eloy nuestro guia nos llevo de una parte a otra , asegurandose que llegabamos puntuales a las entradas. Un 10 para Eloy, gran guia y fotografo👏🏼👏🏼volveria a repetir.

Guiden som ledde oss genom hela rundvandringen var mycket trevlig och gjorde sitt yttersta för att ge oss detaljerade beskrivningar av platserna, vilket gjorde att vi fick en fantastisk upplevelse av alla våra besök. Tack, José
