The marvelous Pena Palace was built on one of the highest points of Sintra Mountain, offering stunning views. It represents the greatest example of 19th-century Romanticism in Portugal, with different influences from the Manueline and Moorish styles. You may wander through its lush gardens, which have more than five hundred tree species from all over the world. The famous composer Richard Strauss named this magnificent palace the "Castle of the Holy Grail". Bypass the crowds with exclusive fast-track access to Pena Palace.
Wander the cobbled lanes of Sintra's heart, where history is etched into the very stones and local pastries add sweetness to your exploration.
After crossing Sintra Mountain, you will reach the most western point of Continental Europe, the imposing Roca Cape, which is 140m above the ocean level and was immortalized by the illustrious Portuguese poet Luís de Camões: “where the land ends and the ocean begins.”
Guincho Beach is one of the greatest beaches in Cascais and one of the most beautiful. It's well known for its wild dunes and untamed sea. How about a superb lunch with sea flavor and a stunning ocean view?
Cascais was the summer residence of the Portuguese royalty and aristocracy in the 19th century and the place of exile of the European monarchy during the Second World War. This fishing village became a cosmopolitan seaside resort, considered the Portuguese Riviera, with sumptuous mansions.
Estoril has long welcomed international visitors, and during World War II, it acquired a glamorous reputation when Portugal's neutrality and mild weather attracted the rich and famous, German and English spies, and European royals and aristocrats. The town is still a fashionable cosmopolitan destination with Europe's largest casino.
