Privétour van een halve dag naar Sintra en Pena Palace vanuit Lissabon
Beschrijving
Een wandeling in Sintra is een echte historische schat, van waar u historische overblijfselen van de bronstijd kunt vinden tot de afwijkende seizoenen van de geschiedenis van Portugal. *Houd er rekening mee dat: Een tour van een halve dag biedt niet dezelfde route-ervaring als een volledige dag; Een route van 4/5 uur omvat het rijden door de belangrijkste bezienswaardigheden van de stad, met slechts één stop toegestaan, afhankelijk van de wachtrij.

Reisroute
Moors kasteel - Sintra monumenten Het Moorse kasteel, dat langs twee Sintra-bergketens loopt, dateert uit de vroege dagen van de Moorse bezetting van het schiereiland - de achtste eeuw. Na vele pogingen, werd uiteindelijk genomen door Dom Afonso Henriques eerste koning van Portugal in 1147, en werd gebouwd de eerste christelijke kapel van de stad, gewijd aan St. Peter van Penaferrim. In de romantische periode, in 1860, werden de muren gerestaureerd onder toezicht van Dom Fernando II, echtgenoot van Dona Maria II, die de omliggende gebieden beboste, en gaf een nieuwe waardigheid aan de oude middeleeuwse ruïnes. Opmerkelijk is de Moorse stortbak binnenin en de zogenaamde Royal Tower. Gelegen op ongeveer 3,5 km van het historische centrum van Sintra.
Park en Nationaal Paleis van Pena Musea en paleizen Nationaal paleis Pena Bezoek de fantastische exponent van het Pena-paleis van de 19e-eeuwse romantiek in Portugal. Het paleis ligt op de top van de Monte da Pena en werd gebouwd op de plaats van een voormalig klooster. Gebouwd door D. Fernando de Saxe Coburg-Gotha, die in 1836 met koningin Dona Maria II trouwde. Nadat hij verliefd was geworden op Sintra, besloot hij het klooster en de omliggende gronden te kopen om er een zomerpaleis voor de koninklijke familie te bouwen. In één van de paleisvleugels is een restaurant geïnstalleerd, met een terras dat een prachtig panoramisch uitzicht biedt over het Sintra-gebergte en de kust.

Very beautiful day. The Pena Palace is a must-see. We were very well accompanied by Miguël. This reservation allowed us to avoid very long lines. Nothing negative to say.
Bonjour Brigitte, Nous sommes ravis de lire votre commentaire ! Cela nous remplit de fierté en tant qu'équipe et Miguel, en tant que professionnel dévoué, était très heureux. Merci infiniment pour votre soutien !
This was a great was to see Sintra and area without having the stress of driving or schedules and lineups! Francisco was very helpful and gave us time to explore on our own as well a guidelines as to how to navigate the area and crowds!
Hi Brenda, We are so glad to read your review! That makes us so proud as a team and Francisco, as a dedicated professional, felt very happy. Thank you so much for your support!!!
You can hit all the main attractions in a half day tour of sintra. The tour guide was great and gave us lots of tips and expert background on each location. Make sure to buy tickets to the castles ahead of time to save time and get the best time slots as they sell out fast. Even if you don’t get tickets to enter the castles, they are enjoyable enough from the outside and you still get to see amazing views. Also gave us the inside scoop on the best places to eat while in Portugal. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it.

listen to the guides advice, he is not wrong. we went to the national palace on his recommendation, looks dull on the outside but is full of interesting rooms and artefacts.

Francisco our guide was very rude. He was stubborn and childish. He was knowledgeable but has a lot to learn if he wants to do this job. The description said two hours at the palace and we got 30 minutes. Everything in the description, was not what we got. He did what he wanted to do and did not try at all
Hello Julie, We investigated the case and forwarded the response to our driver, Francisco. Francisco responded as follows: I'm sorry that I had behaved or talked in a way you found rude. It wasn't my intention, and I think it influenced the way you interpreted some of the things I said. Especially when I told you it was best to keep walking, so that I could explain and show everything in Sintra village first, and then give you about 1h of free time so you could visit/see/do anything in that time. I wanted to maximize your free time after I finished because you need at least 1h in case you decide to visit any monument. And you thought I was preventing you from seeing or stopping at some places. About the time available at pena palace, it was precisely 1h 10 min inside the park. But most importantly, Just like in the village, I explained everything first and then gave you free time. I never mentioned anything about what time to be back in the car, I told you to enjoy and explore and meet me back when you're ready. I was even surprised to see you back so quick. If you wanted to stay there longer you had total freedom to do so. So if the main reason for the 1 star review was the available time in pena I don't think it's fair. But thank you for the feedback, it's important to understand where I need to improve. Thank you
Great experience. A half day was the perfect amount of time in Sintra. George was a phenomenal guide!

He knew the history and was very informative about the Portuguese countryside. He made it very easy to navigate a new environment in Sintra and my family appreciated his sincerity and expertise when taking us on our trip. I’d recommend him to everyone I know!

Pena Palace and Sintra are always crowded. And both have lots of uneven pavement and hills. Our guide, George, gave us good advice at each stop. It was a nice experience

Hi Kirk, We are so glad to read your review! That makes us so proud as a team!!! Thank you so much for your support!!!
Margarida was a fantastic driver. There was a lot of traffic that day and she called to tell us she was going to be a little late ( maybe 20 mins) more time to enjoy our morning coffee. We did a half day at Sintra. she showed us all of the highlights, including the outside areas of the palace, the Moorish castle, and a little bit of the downtown. She was knowledgeable and efficient. She did a good job of whetting our appetite for a longer stay in Sintra! Thank you Margarida for such a a great day!
