Visiting Sintra is an essential Portuguese experience. This roundtrip afternoon tour from Lisbon to the UNESCO World Heritage Site lets you visit the National Palace of Sintra, a spectacular castle that is the crown jewel of all the royal palaces in Portugal. After free time to explore this mystical and ancient village, the tour travels to Cabo da Roca – the westernmost point of Continental Europe – and to the cosmopolitan town of Cascais, where Guincho beach and Boca do Inferno can be discovered nearby.

The afternoon schedule means you can enjoy the best light the sunset offers, as it illuminates the ocean skyline with its orange beams. Cabo da Roca is a cliff that stands 150 meters tall above the Atlantic Ocean, and the views from it are nothing short of breathtaking. Boca do Inferno Beach was formed as towering cliffs eroded away by the fury of the Atlantic Ocean. You'll return to Lisbon with your head and your camera reel filled with amazing memories.
