- Palacio Nacional e Jardins de Queluz - The National Palace of Queluz, constructed from 1747 onwards, showcases Rococo, Neoclassical, and Baroque styles, designed by Mateus Vicente de Oliveira. Initially a summer retreat for D. Pedro de Bragança, it became the Royal Family’s residence in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The Royal Family departed from here to Brazil to escape Napoleon Bonaparte’s troops, leading to the palace being looted. It was reoccupied when D. Carlota Joaquina returned from Brazil. The National Palace of Queluz features many opulently decorated rooms, including the Throne Room, Sculpture Room, Music Room, Smoking Room, Coffee Room, Lantern Room (or Dark Room), Açafatas Room, Porcelain and Earthenware Room, and D. Quixote Room, among others. A notable feature is the Corridor das Mangas, adorned with tiles by Francisco Jorge da Costa and panels by Manuel da Costa Rosado. Exploring Queluz offers insights into Portuguese royalty.
- Casa do Preto - Portuguese sweets are renowned for their high sugar, egg yolk, and almond content, originating from Portuguese convents and monasteries in the 16th century. Conventual sweets gained fame from the 15th century onwards, with the introduction of sugar cane from the colonies. Portugal was also a leading egg producer in Europe, with egg whites exported for use in clarifying white wine and ironing the suits of wealthy men. The municipality boasts several gastronomic specialties, with traditional sweets like pillows and queijadas de Sintra being popular, tracing back to at least the Middle Ages. Enjoy a Queijada or a Travesseiro with a coffee (espresso).
- Quinta da Regaleira - Quinta da Regaleira is one of the country’s most beautiful sites, located in Sintra’s historic center and recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is a remarkable space with various buildings and a stunning garden, offering a world of symbolism, metaphors, and references to Dante, Camões, the Order of Christ, among others. The property’s first records date back to 1697, owned by José Leite. It was purchased in 1715 by Francisco Albertini Guimarães de Castro, who named it Quinta do Castro. Later owners included Manoel Bernardo, Baronesa de Almeida, and in 1892, Dr. António Augusto de Carvalho Monteiro, who commissioned renowned architect Luigi Manini to construct the Palácio da Regaleira. The construction was meticulously planned according to Carvalho Monteiro’s life concept. Quinta da Regaleira’s architectural styles are Neo-Manueline, with historical references such as Camões and the Templars of the Order of Christ.
- Sintra National Palace - The National Palace of Sintra’s construction began in 1489 on the ruins of an old Moorish building. It harmoniously blends Renaissance, romantic, gothic, and medieval architectural styles. A constant royal residence, it witnessed many historical events, such as the news of Brazil’s discovery, the birth and death of D. Afonso V, and the coronation of D. João II, among others.
- Centro Historico de Sintra - Sintra, a village in the Lisbon metropolitan area, is renowned for its romantic-style buildings, earning it a UNESCO World Heritage Site designation. With a rugged topography, Sintra enhances its buildings, archaeological sites, palaces, and sanctuaries, preserving historical remains and vegetation in harmony. The narrow roads leading to the main square feature buildings with vibrant colors and architecture. Traces of various eras blend among shops and restaurants. The delightful regional sweets “Queijadas” and “Travesseiros” are crafted and sold in famous pastry shops “Piriquita” and “Casa do Preto.” The flow of tourists adds charm with diverse languages, all sharing enthusiasm for the beauty. Sintra is truly unique.
- Farol do Cabo da Roca - The Cabo da Roca Lighthouse is situated in the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. Built in stone in 1772, it marks the westernmost point of the European continent. A plaque quotes the esteemed Portuguese writer, Luís de Camões, referring to the Lighthouse as: “Here… Where the land ends and the sea begins…”. Among the six lighthouses on the Portuguese coast, Cabo da Roca is the second oldest. The impressive Lighthouse, standing 165 meters tall, was constructed in 1772. The “power” of the Atlantic Ocean reveals one of Portugal’s most iconic locations, significant during the Maritime expansion period. With breathtaking landscapes, it was upgraded with sixteen lamps with parabolic reflectors powered by olive oil. Forty years later, Portugal’s General Lighting and Lighting Plan authorized the use of electricity for its operation, which began in 1897. The view over the Atlantic, cliffs, and headlands is spectacular.
- Estrada do Guincho - Nestled between two rocky peaks, Ponta Alta and Ponta do Abano, is Guincho beach. Its location in the heart of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, near the mountains, gives it a unique charm: the wind felt there almost year-round makes this beach ideal for extreme sports like surfing, windsurfing, and kitesurfing. This is why Guincho beach is a finalist in the national “Seven Wonders, Beaches of Portugal” competition, in the “Beach for sports use” category. Guincho often hosts European and world events in wind-related sports, making it a sought-after destination for top athletes. Along this road, there are numerous excellent restaurants, seafood eateries, and hotels.
- Boca do Inferno - Visiting beautiful Cascais without seeing the impressive rock formation of Boca do Inferno means missing one of the city’s greatest surprises and beauties. Boca do Inferno is a formation associated with a cliff, located west of Cascais, named after the ocean waves that violently hit the cliff face, forcing it into a system of caves and furiously pulverizing the land upon impact to an opening higher up. Boca do Inferno is a cave where the waves crash, and where the Atlantic Ocean crashes before turning into a cauldron of foam. The rock formation has its own viewing platform and has been a favorite spot for storm watching for over a hundred years. In summer, waves plunge into the open cave, but during winter storms, the full force of the ocean is channeled into the abyss, giving rise to the rock formation’s name.
- Cascais - Situated by the sea and traditionally a fishing village, Cascais experienced significant development in the 14th century when it was a busy port for ships heading to Lisbon. However, it was from the second half of the 19th century, when sea bathing became popular, that Cascais transformed into a fashionable summer resort. The main catalyst for this transformation was King Luís I of Portugal, who in 1870 converted the citadel fortress into the summer residence of the Portuguese monarchy. This example was followed by the nobility, who built mansions and beautiful villas here to spend the hottest time of the year, transforming the old fishing village. Cascais also began attracting curious visitors with the inauguration of the railway line between Pedrouços and Cascais in 1889. Today, Cascais is a lively and cosmopolitan town, retaining its aristocratic charm.
- Casino Estoril - Located on Lisbon’s north coast, Estoril has become one of Portugal’s most cosmopolitan places since King Luís I chose this bay as his summer residence at the end of the 19th century. A short walk along the coast reveals the atmosphere of the time, with villages, mansions, and fortresses sharing an idyllic space. The first stone of Casino Estoril was laid in 1916, but its inauguration only took place in 1931. Founded by Fausto de Figueiredo, Casino Estoril began operations under José Teodoro dos Santos in 1958, through the company Estoril Sol. During World War II, as Portugal was a neutral country, Casino Estoril became a hub for spies and exiles, including members of some deposed royal families. In the 1960s, the casino, originally built in the 1930s, was significantly expanded. After Teodoro dos Santos’ death in 1971, the concession remained within the family shareholder structure. Only in 1987 did Estoril Sol pass to Stanley Ho.
- Avenida Marginal - Avenida Marginal is a road with a cycle path and a promenade connecting Lisbon to Cascais, following the Tagus River and then the Atlantic Ocean for 30 km. It is very popular year-round with locals and students from Universidade Nova School of Business and Economics, especially in summer as it runs alongside the beaches of Costa do Estoril. This avenue is culturally rich, with numerous monuments, including mansions, palaces, and fortresses from the distant past. On this avenue, one can witness sunrises and sunsets by the sea of unparalleled beauty.
- Lisbon - A fond farewell to guests. Return to the hotel, private accommodation, or the designated meeting point.
