Overview

This small-group bus tour lasts about nine hours and includes visits to several key sites near Lisbon. The trip begins at the operator’s office in Lisbon, where participants meet their guide and board a minivan equipped with air conditioning. The first stop is Pena Palace in Sintra. Visitors spend around 75 minutes viewing the exterior of this Romanticist palace, including its colorful façades and large garden terraces. After that, there is about 90 minutes of free time in Sintra’s historic center to walk the streets, shop, or try local snacks. The tour continues to Cascais for an hour, where guests can explore the marina and the historic Citadel district at their own pace, including time for lunch (not included). In the afternoon, the group travels to Belém for a guided panoramic walk around Belém Tower, the Monument to the Discoveries, and the Jerónimos Monastery’s exterior. A tasting of Pastéis de Belém, a traditional pastry, is included at the end of the visit. The tour is limited to eight people, allowing for a more personal experience. The guide shares local history and stories throughout the day. The route and timing may change due to traffic or other conditions. Note that reaching Pena Palace involves a moderately difficult walk, but a shuttle can be arranged if requested. If wildfires or strikes affect the area, some stops may be replaced, and the palace is not accessible to those with reduced mobility due to stairs and climbs.
