What will you do?
Park and National Palace of Pena
We will see the spectacular Pena Palace, one of the world's main representations of 19th-century romanticism. The current palace dates from 1839, when King Ferdinand II purchased the ruins of the Monastery of Our Lady of Pena and began transforming it into a lovely dwelling. Not only will we tour the Pena Palace, but we will also explore sections of the Pena Park.
Sintra village
Sintra is an ancient and mostly pedestrian hamlet that dates back a thousand years. Sintra, known as the "Mountain of the Moon" by the Greeks, is still a real fairy tale hamlet today. Since 1995, it has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You will have free time here for lunch (lunch is not included) and to try some famous travesseiros (pillows), which are light puff pastries that are flipped, rolled, and folded seven times before being filled with delectable almond-and-egg-yolk cream and gently sprinkled with sugar. Sintra cheesecakes are also available.
Colares
On our way to the Atlantic Ocean, we pass through Colares and its famed wine cellars. Colares is a charming hamlet noted for its wine, a royal obsession that dates back to the 13th century. The scenery has stood the test of time, and we can now enjoy antique villas, stunning mansions, little and large farm areas, and a century-old tram.
