What to expect

Sintra
1h

Step into the enchanting heart of Sintra’s UNESCO-listed historical village center. Enjoy free time to wander the narrow, winding cobblestone lanes lined with traditional craft shops, artisan boutiques, and local cafes. Take the opportunity to sample Sintra's famous traditional pastries—the sweet Travesseiros (puff pastry filled with almond cream) or the historic Queijadas de Sintra—as your guide shares insights into the romantic history of this royal mountain retreat.
Park and National Palace of Pena
2h · Admission ticket included

Avoid the massive ticketing lines with your included entrance to the exotic Pena Park. Follow your guide through the lush, winding pathways filled with rare trees from around the globe, heading straight up to the iconic Pena National Palace. Marvel at the striking yellow and red romanticist architecture, intricate Moorish tilework, and Manueline stone carvings. Your included ticket grants you full access to the spectacular palace balconies and exterior terraces, offering breathtaking panoramic views over the Atlantic coastline and the Moorish Castle.
Lisbon
3m

Journey back toward the coast to explore Lisbon’s historic waterfront district of Belém, the legendary launchpad for Portugal's Age of Discovery. Walk along the scenic Tagus River promenade and enjoy the vibrant coastal atmosphere. Your guide will point you toward the world-famous, original Fábrica Pastéis de Belém pastry shop, giving you a chance to sample the most authentic Portuguese custard tart in the country before checking out the nearby monuments.
Torre de Belem
30m · Admission ticket not included

Stand on the banks of the Tagus River to admire the exterior fortress of Belém Tower (Torre de Belém). This 16th-century UNESCO World Heritage military monument was strategically built to defend Lisbon’s harbor from pirate attacks and served as the final landmark sailors saw when leaving Portugal. It stands today as a stunning symbol of the nation's rich seafaring history and unique architectural heritage.
Jeronimos Monastery
30m · Admission ticket not included

Gaze at the magnificent Jerónimos Monastery, a masterpiece of Manueline architecture built to honor Portugal's remarkable 15th-century explorers. While our itinerary does not enter the main cloister museum lines, we will step inside the breathtaking, soaring interior of the adjacent Monastery Church (Santa Maria de Belém). Here, you will see the historic stone tombs of the legendary explorer Vasco da Gama and the famous poet Luís de Camões, learning about the nation's profound maritime past.
Padrao Dos Descobrimentos
30m

Enjoy a panoramic photo stop at the massive limestone Monument to the Discoveries, dramatically shaped like the prow of a Portuguese caravel ship looking out over the water. Learn about the iconic historical figures carved into its sides—including Henry the Navigator and Vasco da Gama—who mapped out new trade routes across the globe during the golden Age of Sail.
