Program details

Delve into the natural exuberance of the hills of Sintra on this exciting jeep tour; and what better way can there possibly be to explore a breath-taking natural landscape than by growling through the bush on a vicious four by four? Rumble through this heaven on earth, so beautiful it was declared World Heritage by the UNESCO and was compared to the Garden of Eden by the famous romantic British poet Lord Byron. Sit back, relax and feel like you own the place.

The Sintra Jeep Tour kicks off with a trip along the marvellous Cascais coastline, a scenario of paradisiacal beaches loomed over by the ominous Atlantic Ocean. The tour then continues by entering the hills of Sintra, diving right into the belly of a lush natural landscape that will envelop you like a green embrace.

Some of your journey’s must-sees include a series of the highest and most emblematic vantage points, such as the one located at the Peninha Sanctuary. Another simply breath-taking site is the coastal point known as Cabo da Roca. Relish the soul-elating feeling of standing on the westernmost point of mainland Portugal, the closest you can possibly stand to the America from continental Europe.

Wrap the day up with an afternoon stop at the magnificent Pena Palace and a load of free time to enjoy wandering aimlessly around the magical sceneries of Sintra. Take a deep breath and discover this forest’s most intimate secrets.
