About this tour


We begin in the mystical embrace of Sintra, taking in the vibrant exterior architecture, balconies, and terraces of Pena Palace while wandering through its lush, storied grounds—a true escape into imagination. Next, we trace back through Sintra’s charming Historic Center before journeying west to stand on the edge of Europe at the dramatic cliffs of Cabo da Roca, taking in breathtaking Atlantic vistas.

Our path then leads us along the sparkling coast past Cascais before reaching Lisbon. We pause by the grand architectural landmarks of historic Belém, absorb the rhythmic pulse of life as we stroll through the heart of Baixa, admire the sweeping green avenues of Eduardo VII Park, and marvel at a panoramic perspective over the city from the iconic Senhora do Monte viewpoint.

A few centuries ago, there was a fort that played an important role in the defense of Lisbon and the third oldest lighthouse on the Portuguese coast is still here in operation. Here the landscape is breathtaking and absolute bliss for photography lovers.
