Sintra and Cascais Day Trip With Antonio

The trip was well planned out with adequate breaks and site seeing.
The tour guide is really the linchpin in what makes a good tour and a spectacular tour. I'm sure this would be a great tour if the tour guide was half as good as ours - Antonio!
The tour provided a beautiful slice of Portugal. I highly recommend it!

Sintra's charm is undeniable. Pena Palace was colourful, Quinta da Regaleira's gardens were enthralling. The very nice relaxed feel for a finish, back in Cascais. Our guide was superb.

It was one of our top highlights in the entire tour. Pena Palace…wow it is so different and then the magical Quinta da Regaleira captured us. The last word goes to the wild beauty of Cabo da Roca.

Our guide tailored it perfectly. Anything else would have been a disgrace because Pena Palace was incredible, and I discovered another amazing place in Sintra that has not a mystical secret of this town. Cascais was a relaxing stop.

Exploring the hidden gems of Quinta da Regaleira was enchanting, to say the leas. There was so much we would not have noticed without our guide. Cascais was a charming bonus.

The more Cabo da Roca, with their unbelievable views over the ocean. Two more different places we saw, a grand palace and an intriguing manor in the woods of Sintra. Highly recommend!

The semi-private format was great. Great personalized touch and little stories for the Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira. All these windows out to lovely coastal breezes of Cascais.

I find saying this word a lot about Cascais, especially the Marina and of course its layed back attitude. The costal drive was amazing and we also checked out Cabo da Roca while doing the drive. The small group made it intimate, and the guides had insights to extend every moment.

We were truly entranced by quinta da Regaleira! The grottos and the Initiation Well seemed some kind of adventure lands. Our tour guide was marvellous, she made the history really interesting. It could have been Sintra & the beautiful drive along the coast.
