Itinerary of your trip Sintra Heritage & Coastal Trails

  • Day 1 Arrival In Lisbon
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Arrival In Lisbon

      Welcome to Portugal! 

      One of our guides will transfer you to Cascais, which should take about 

      30 minutes. You might get the chance to explore this delightful town, a 

      village with 650 years of history that was forged by fishermen, but later 

      populated by kings, queen, writers, painters and singers. However, this all 

      depends on your arrival time! Deep down, Cascais is a synonym for 

      charm and inspiration, something you will undoubtedly feel if you have 

      the chance to walk in its streets and listen to gentle lullabies of the ocean. 

      This is the perfect beginning for this trip, which can be celebrated with a 

      delicious fresh fish dinner at the village center!
