Sintra (Pass By)

This tour will be a journey of pure dazzle of your senses. The first point that you will visit during this tour will be the magical Sintra, a town full of mysticism, which is located only 30 km from the capital. Awarded as world heritage by UNESCO, Sintra is endowed with a unique beauty, reflecting the perfect fusion between an exuberant nature and the grandeur of its heritage. Over the centuries, Sintra has been praised by many artists and writers from all over the world, such as Lord Byron, one of the greatest British poets, who called it “glorious Eden”, or Eça de Queiroz, one of the greatest figures of the Portuguese literature, who made it famous in his books: “Everything in Sintra is divine. There is no corner that is not a poem”.

Park and National Palace of Pena

We will start the tour by taking you to the marvellous Pena Palace, built on one of the highest points of Sintra’s Mountain, offering you a stunning view of the surrounding nature and the Atlantic Ocean. Its construction was ordered by the consort king D. Ferdinand II, representing the greatest example of the XIX century Romanticism in Portugal, with different influences of the Manueline and Moorish styles. In its surrounding area, you will find lush gardens with more than five hundred tree species from all over the world. The famous composer Richard Strauss named this magnificent palace as the “castle of the Holy Grail”.

Sintra

Discovering Sintra is also tasting its flavours. So, before heading towards the next destination of your tour, we invite you to enjoy its delicious traditional pastry, such as travesseiros and queijadas.
