Winding forest roads, fairytale palaces, and Atlantic cliffs — this is not just a tour, it’s a step into a dream. With your private driver at the wheel, explore Sintra and Cascais at your own rhythm, in total comfort and elegance.
This 8-hour journey connects two of Portugal’s most iconic regions in a curated experience of contrast, beauty, and atmosphere — from the romantic charm of Sintra to the coastal elegance of Cascais.
Please note: visiting all suggested highlights may not be possible within the time frame. Your itinerary is flexible and shaped on the day with your driver, depending on your pace and preferences.
With TOPTOUR PORTUGAL®, there are no timetables or rushed groups — just a premium vehicle, a professional English-speaking driver, and the freedom to explore what fascinates you most.
Ideal for reinforcing the enigmatic and romantic side of Sintra, while unveiling the natural drama and seaside sophistication of Cascais.
| Note: Price is per vehicle (not per person) and valid for 3 to 7 passengers.
Perched high above the clouds, the colorful Pena Palace is the crown jewel of Sintra. A masterpiece of 19th-century Romanticism, it combines Moorish, Gothic, and Manueline influences in a dreamlike architectural fusion. Entry is optional and requires time for a full visit, including the surrounding park.
2. Sintra Old Town & National Palace Explore the cobbled streets of Sintra’s historic centre, where quaint cafés, artisan shops, and traditional pastry houses frame your walk toward the National Palace of Sintra, instantly recognisable by its twin chimneys and Moorish‑inspired interiors.
3. Quinta da Regaleira (optional visit) A mystical estate filled with symbolism, secret tunnels, and the iconic Initiation Well, Quinta da Regaleira is one of the most atmospheric sites in Portugal. Entry is optional — perfect for those drawn to mystery and esoteric architecture, if time and interest allow.
4. Monserrate Palace (optional visit) An exotic and lesser‑known gem, Monserrate Palace showcases Moorish and Indo-Gothic influences surrounded by a magnificent botanical garden. As with other monuments, entry is optional and depends on your pace and priorities for the day.
5. Azenhas do Mar A postcard-perfect coastal village carved into the cliffs, Azenhas do Mar offers breathtaking views and a serene glimpse of traditional whitewashed architecture. A quick stop here provides one of the most scenic photo opportunities of the day.
6. Cabo da Roca Welcome to the westernmost point of continental Europe. The dramatic cliffs and powerful Atlantic winds make Cabo da Roca a raw and unforgettable moment in the tour — where the land ends and the sea begins.
Translating to “Hell’s Mouth”, Boca do Inferno is a striking natural rock formation on the Cascais coastline. Watch the waves crash through the arch in a spectacle of sound and spray.
8. Cascais Marina & Bay Conclude your day with a walk along the elegant Cascais bay and marina, once a quiet fishing village, now a cosmopolitan blend of seaside charm, art galleries, and waterfront cafés.
9. Alternative Option – Queluz National Palace If you prefer a different cultural route, Palácio Nacional de Queluz offers an opulent Baroque and Rococo experience often compared to Versailles. Note: Including Queluz may require removing one or more stops from the regular itinerary due to time limits.
10. Alternative Option – Mafra National Palace Another powerful option, the monumental Palácio Nacional de Mafra combines royal grandeur with a vast basilica and an 18th-century library. Note: Due to distance and time, visiting Mafra will replace at least one other stop in the standard itinerary.
