El otro lado de Sintra - Bosques olvidados
Descripción
Si quieres experimentar Sintra sin las multitudes y clichés, este tour es para ti. Te llevaremos a lugares que la mayoría de los visitantes se pierden. Este recorrido le lleva a través de espacios que la historia casi deja atrás : la simplicidad capeada del Convento de los Capuchos, tallado en el bosque con humildad franciscana; el olvidado centinela de Penedo, un pueblo tradicional aparentemente suspendido en el tiempo; la dura belleza de Azenhas do Mar, un encantador y antiguo pueblo de pescadores; y la exuberante opulencia de Monserrate, donde la naturaleza fue moldeada para reflejar ideales románticos. Estos espacios fueron pasados por alto a lo largo de la historia, pero juntos revelan un Sintra más profundo y auténtico, donde el silencio se encuentra con el espectáculo, y la simplicidad contrasta con la grandeza. Hecho para aquellos que quieren frenar, este tour evita las trampas turísticas, y muestra una Sintra más real : un lugar lleno de contraste, historia, y calma.

Itinerario

Comienza en el bosque para visitar el Convento de los Capuchos, donde la humildad se hace tangible en las paredes bordeadas de corcho, caminos sombreados y la quietud de la naturaleza
Parada en el pueblo de Penedo y Azenhas do Mar para un almuerzo relajante. Disfrute de la auténtica cocina portuguesa en un entorno intacto por el tiempo.
Explora el Palacio y Parque de Monserrate, donde la arquitectura romántica y las plantas exóticas forman un paraíso curado. Cada detalle invita al asombro, desde arcos tallados hasta cascadas y caminos bordeados de palmeras.

If you appreciate an experience that is interesting, quieter and involves nature, this is the tour for you.
We had a wonderful leisurely tour away from the busy touristy areas outside of Sintra & Cascais. We visited a historic convent, a beautiful botanical garden, & lots of scenic coastline. Since we were the only couple on the tour, our guide was very nice to make some modifications for us and we got to see a couple other areas in addition to the planned itinerary. Our guide was so knowledgeable & really knew the history about all the places we visited. Oriana was “THE BEST” and we really appreciate her great service & sharing her knowledge of the area. Thank you!!!
Amazing tour! We got to visit places we never would have gone without the tour. Guides were amazing and so knowledgeable and patient. The pace was comfortable and relaxed. There were no crowds at any of the places they took us. Great for people who don’t want to just see the touristy areas. We were picked up right at our hotel in a comfortable van and the guides made the whole trip easy. We saw the most amazing views of our visit during this tour. 100% recommend!!
This was an absolutely fantastic tour! I enjoyed seeing the ‘other side’ of Sintra - which was equally as beautiful as the more well known locations but a lot less crowded. Oriana, our guide had such a wealth of knowledge about the places we visited and the region in general! I loved that we got to visit the beautiful mountain locations as well as some coastal stops, without it being too rushed! Would highly recommend this tour!
This was the highlight of my trip to Portugal. Both momserrat and the convent of capuchos are stunning hidden gems in Sintra nacional park. I highly recommend this tour if want to escape the crowds of historical village of Sintra and the pena palace which I visited previously.
Our tour through Sintra was a truly memorable experience, made even better by the excellent organization of the company. The visit to the Convento dos Capuchos was particularly unique—its simplicity and strong connection to nature created a calm and almost spiritual atmosphere. Walking through the small cork-lined rooms and narrow pathways gave us a real sense of how the monks once lived in such modest conditions. In contrast, the Palácio de Monserrate offered a completely different experience, with its exotic architecture and stunning gardens. The mix of Gothic, Moorish, and Indian influences made the palace feel magical, while the surrounding gardens were lush, diverse, and perfect for a relaxing stroll. The journey through the Sintra mountains brought everything together beautifully. The scenery was breathtaking, with misty hills, dense forests, and incredible viewpoints along the way. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging, sharing interesting stories and historical insights throughout the tour. Overall, the tour was well-organized, informative, and enjoyable from beginning to end. It provided a perfect balance of history, culture, and nature—highly recommended for anyone visiting Sintra. Thank you Gil!
Amazing experience! This really was the other side of Sintra! And 5 stars to our guide Gil, very knowledgeable and kind! I strongly recommend!
The tour took us through areas I wouldn’t have found on my own. It was a peaceful walk, with interesting stops and plenty of time to take in the surroundings. The guide was knowledgeable and easy to talk to, sharing useful context without overwhelming. A good choice if you’re looking for something different from the usual crowds.
Amazing trip to some hidden gems in Sintra. Would never been able to do this much by myself, and would never learn so much. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating. All in all, a great day!
