★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,665 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $187Our pick

Spend about eight hours with a private driver-guide exploring Sintra’s palaces, gardens, and medieval center, then continue to Cabo da Roca and Cascais. Guides such as Diogo, Susana, Filipe, Alberto, and Paulo are praised for local insight and flexible pacing. Palace tickets are mostly extra unless you select skip-the-line Pena Palace access.

“100% recommend doing the castle with a private guide. Please read the details and make sure if you want to do more than one castle you buy all your tickets ahead of time! But having a private guide for the drive and tour was wonderful. The walk to the castle is beautiful and definitely worth the effort if you can walk DO IT. The grounds are gorgeous and you should leave time to walk the gardens.”
