Itinerary of your trip Short Break Sintra

  • Day 1 Arrival In Lisbon

      Arrival In Lisbon

      Welcome to Portugal! 

      After your arrival our guide will take you to Azรณia, on the coastline close to 

      the westernmost point of mainland Europe: Cape da Roca. Being part of 

      the Sintra municipality, it is a charming place known for its wineries and 

      special vines which are planted in sandy soils and maritime climates. We 

      recommend that you walk around and enjoy the ocean breeze, taste 

      some good Portuguese food and rest in your charming hotel in 

      preparation for the days to come.

      After a delicious breakfast, you will emerge into a scenery over the cliffs 

      where the ocean stretches as far as your eyes can see. After you leave 

      your accommodation, the path will lead you to Cape Roca - the 

      westernmost point of mainland Europe, where you can see a beautiful 

      lighthouse that has been illuminating this coast since 1772. Along this 

      rocky promontory, hides a wild and beautiful beach which goes by the 

      name of Ursa! You will also find the beautiful beach of Adraga, a great 

      option for lunch. From here, you will head on to Praia Grande, where you

      forest. Surrounded by a unique beauty, you will find the incredible 

      Franciscan Capuchos Convent, which stands out for its simplicity. Build 

      in the rock and lined up with cork, the convent is a witness of the humble 

      austere living of the Franciscan friars who lived there. Later, you will have 

      the opportunity to visit the Monserrate Palace, a neo-gothic mansion 

      revealing a brilliant example of the romantic period that left such an 

      imprint in Sintra. Your day will end at the historical center of Sintraโ€™s 

      village. Use the free time to stroll around the village and discover little
