Rejseplan
Vi starter på dit hotel på vej mod en uforglemmelig dag. Sintra ligger 30 km fra Lissabon. Dens mikroklima garanterer permanent friskhed til byen og væksten af fantastisk vegetation, hvilket gør dette til et mystisk og dybt romantisk sted. Pena National Palace, Quinta da Regaleira og Monserrate Palace skiller sig ud som de vigtigste monumenter. Når vi ankommer til byen, kører vi til toppen af Serra de Sintra og Palácio da Pena, bygget på en klippe 500m over havets overflade, der dominerer hele kysten så langt som til Lissabon. Det repræsenterer et af de bedste udtryk for det 19. århundredes arkitektoniske romantik i verden, og er faktisk Europas første romantiske palads, bygget omkring 30 år før det karismatiske Schloss Neuschwanstein i Bayern, Tyskland
Quinta da Regaleira, beliggende i hjertet af Sintra, er et monument fyldt med mysterier og symbolik. Ejeren Carvalho Monteiro, også kendt som Monteiro dos Mírios, var fascineret af alkymi, frimureri, rosenkors og tempelriddere. Gården blev forvandlet til et sted fuld af mystisk symbolik. Quinta da Regaleira blev bygget til at være et rum for fordybelse, meditation og fejring af gamle mysterier. I dag er Quinta da Regaleira en af de mest besøgte turistattraktioner i Sintra, og tilbyder besøgende en rejse fuld af mystik gennem hemmelige tunneler, eksotiske haver, søer, huler og bygninger, såsom den berømte initiatorbrønd. Denne spiralbrønd går 27 meter ned i jorden og er omgivet af en trappe, også bygget i en spiral.
Monserrate var et tilflugtssted for forfattere og tiltrak adskillige udenlandske rejsende, især engelske, som priste dens skønhed i rejseberetninger og graveringer. Da Francis Cook, en velhavende engelsk industrimand fra det 19. århundrede og stor kunstsamler, besøgte stedet, blev han fascineret. Fra denne lidenskab blev romantikkens mesterværk født: Monserrates park og palads.
Det nuværende palads i Sintra består af mange kongelige paladser. Det er en gruppe bygninger, der blev bygget, tilføjet og tilpasset gennem århundreder, hvor datoen for grundlæggelsen af det ældste palads er en gåde, der forbliver uløst i dag. Mest sandsynligt blev den første bygning bygget omkring det 10. eller 11. århundrede, da Sintra var islamisk territorium. I slutningen af middelalderen var Sintra-paladset centrum for et territorium, der blev forvaltet af dronningerne af Portugal, men det var også et af de portugisiske monarkers foretrukne rum. Overfloden af vildt i regionen, det kølige klima i sommermånederne eller behovet for tilflugt i perioder med pest i hovedstaden gjorde Paço de Sintra til en hyppig destination. Paço de Sintra, der holder af minder og vidner til spændende begivenheder i Portugals historie, tilbyder dem, der besøger den, muligheden for at rejse gennem tiden og møde andre liv, der er så forskellige fra vores.
Queluz-paladset, med en smuk udsmykning fyldt med stykker af enorm værdi, blev den officielle residens for kongelige, især den portugisiske prins-regent, den kommende D. João VI, samt hans familie, indtil kongefamilien flygtede. til Brasilien på grund af de franske invasioner. D. Pedro IV eller D. Pedro I fra Brasilien blev født i dette palads. Det fungerede også som et diskret fængselssted for dronning Maria I, "Maria Louca", mens hendes vanvid blev ved med at forværres efter D. Pedros død.
Denne tur er meget forbundet med gastronomi, tid på vores Tour Sintra med frokost for at stoppe i centrum af Sintra for at slentre gennem dens gyder og gyder. Åbenbaring af dets historiske centrum samt Pastelaria da Piriquita, hvor vi vil smage på Pillow Sintra såvel som Queijada de Sintra.a i centrum af landsbyen
Efter denne vidunderlige frokost fortsætter vi vores Sintra Tour med frokost gennem bjergene, indtil vi når Cabo da Roca (det vestligste punkt på det kontinentale Europa) med dets smukke klipper og udsigt, hvor vi kan læse på gravstenen, der fejrer dette punkt ”her, hvor land slutter, og havet begynder ”stolt efterladt af den berømte episke digter Camões.
Beliggende ved siden af havet og traditionelt en fiskerby, oplevede Cascais en vigtig udvikling i det 19. århundrede. XIV, da det var en travl anløbshavn for skibe på vej til Lissabon. Det var dog fra 2. halvdel af århundredet og frem. I det 19. århundrede, da havbadning begyndte at være populært, oplevede Cascais et løft, der forvandlede det til et meget fashionabelt sommerferiested. Den vigtigste drivkraft bag forvandlingen var kongen af Portugal D. Luís I, som i 1870 omdannede citadelfæstningen til det portugisiske monarkis sommerresidens. Dette eksempel blev fulgt af adelen, der byggede palæer og smukke villaer her, hvor de tilbragte den varmeste tid på året, hvor de fuldstændig forvandlede den gamle fiskerby. Det anbefales at gå en tur gennem gaderne, som har butikker af fremragende kvalitet, eller tage et øjeblik til at hvile på en af de mange terrasser, der findes her.

Never got to rate the company for their actual service. I can only rate them on their customer service before as they cancelled the tour because I had not provided them the hotel I was staying at 3 months in advanced as I had not booked the hotel. They also told me that because I booked during the high season and I had booked as only one person for a private tour they could make more money elsewhere so they cancelled my viator booking.

We were referred to João by a trusted friend to have as a tour guide while in Lisbon. Our friends were planning a tour throughout Portugal with João while we only needed him during our stay in Lisbon. He was very easy to communicate with, which made the logistics of the trip smooth from the start. He contacted us right away to plan the two-day tour and to guide us through the steps of ordering the tickets we needed. We were in constant communication before our trip and upon arrival and on the day of the tour he arrived promptly at our hotel for pickup. We did a one day tour of Lisbon and a one day tour of Sintra and I would highly recommend touring with him for both sites while in Lisbon. João has a broad knowledge of Portuguese history, culture, landmarks, architecture as well as the very best place to find pastel de nata and ginjinha. He is also very kind, thoughtful and took his time to explain things and was patient with our seniors and children in the constant uphill hikes to various sites around the city. We also greatly enjoyed his humor and his photography skills! We have so many wonderful family photos he took for us throughout the day. João struck a good balance between being informative and letting us explore at our own pace, which made the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The itineraries were well thought out and gave us a true appreciation for the country. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with João and recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable guide while in Portugal.

We had the most incredible day touring Sintra on our honeymoon, thanks to our amazing guide, João. He picked us up right from our hotel and took care of everything, expertly planning the day so we could experience the magic of Quinta da Regaleira, Pena Palace, and Monserrate Palace without ever feeling rushed. João’s deep knowledge of the history and hidden stories behind each palace brought the sites to life in a way we’ll never forget. His passion for the region is infectious, and his warm, professional approach made the entire experience seamless and unforgettable. We couldn’t recommend João more—he was a huge part of what made our trip so special, and we’ll definitely be booking with him again when we return to Portugal!
