Sintra Stories by Portugal Stories
We are Portugal Stories and we are committed to tell the Stories of our History in a fair, attractive and inclusive way. By merging history and sightseeing, we believe we created an amazing way to get to know Sintra!
-We start by visiting the village historical center and talk about our King D. Manuel I. Afterwards, we try the famous pastries!
-After we go to Regaleira Estate and get to know about its creator, António Carvalho Monteiro. Here you will explore freely its amazing gardens full of caves, waterfalls and secret tunnels that hide the secrets of free masonry
-We will then head up the mountain and feel the forest (where we can have a small picnic) and we will stop on an amazing viewpoint to Pena Palace, an icon of the Romantic age
-We then head to "Cabo da Roca", the westernmost point of Europe, feel the Ocean and its cliffs!
-We will come back to Lisbon by the Portuguese "Riviera" (something not to miss while in Lisbon!) and leave you with all the Stories we shared!
