Acknowledge the Unesco Cultural Landscape of Sintra, a surface of 8 by 4 kms long, where amidst a boulder mountain near the Atlantic, human built patrimony molded a unique site with a Castle, Palaces, Chalets, Estates, Villas, Monasterys, Fountains, Gardens, Dams, Streams, Waterfalls, Chapels, Ruins..

Realize the characteristics and mystifications attached to this particular land, its chronologically different inhabitants and investments, understanding when, who and why, participated in crafting this unique World Heritage site;

Provided visual support of mainly postcards and maps, at crucial photo sights stops along the landmarks, will give visitors an hollistic experience to frame the full picture of place, something that the individual payed visit of one or two sites would not facilitate;

A knowledgeable, experienced and passionate local guide, will suggest free visitation sites to accomodate the will of visitors, and this landscape is rich enough to give options of picturesque house museums of late local artists (like a former novelist, sculpture artist or cartoonist/illustrator), a XVII century estate property with a beautiful garden with sequoias on a river bank, or even a miniature town depicting life and livelihood in thge mid past century;

Lunch will have the option of a self made barbecue of meat and/or fish in one of the reserved public areas around for that use (after a group visit to the supermarket), or the obvious option/suggestion of some of the best typical portuguese food restaurants around;

On the afternoon, starting North to South one can venture through the municipalities of Mafra, and wonder through picturesque towns, countryside or coastal, like Ericeira, Mata Pequena, Azenhas do Mar, Penedo and Almoçageme;

A stop at a beach for a drink or a swim will be an option, or a mountain bike or walking trail to do among the nature cliffs of the Atlantic, as well as the various 4x4 trails that present a navigational way to discover more on the way to the westernmost point of Europe, “cabo da roca”;

After the iconic lighthouse and its surroundings, will be following south to the “sun coast” of Cascais, to appreciate the old citadel, the boat bay, the beach of Tamariz, Casino Estoril, or the luxurious Hotel Palácio, while passing through landmarks like the sporty and windy Guincho Beach, the calmness of the Cresmina Dune or the infamous Boca do Inferno natural cave.

Meaning that prior to the arranjed day, one shall discuss the focal points of interest: palaces and their richness, nature and its wild factor, humble inhabitants and their livelihood, shopping or leisure as a preference for using the tour time as these are solely some examples
