What you can expect

Discover Sintra's historic heart on this intimate walking tour with a local guide. Stroll the romantic Volta do Duche pathway, a hidden riverside walk most visitors never find, and admire the National Palace's iconic twin chimneys, hearing stories of the Portuguese royal family who called it home for centuries.

From the palace square, spot the dramatic silhouette of the Moorish Castle perched high on the hills above, a fortress with over 1,300 years of history.

Treat yourself to a traditional travesseiro, a flaky almond cream pastry, at the legendary Casa Piriquita, Sintra's most beloved bakery since 1862, before finishing at the mysterious gates of Quinta da Regaleira, where your guide reveals its Masonic symbolism and legendary Initiation Well.
