Highlights
Your journey begins at Rossio Station in Lisbon, where your guide will take your group to Sintra by train. Upon arrival in this ancient town, you'll pick up your e-bike near the station, and there we will have the first surprise for you.
When starting the tour, you can already spot the impressive Moorish Castle on the hill.
Riding through Sintra’s charming streets, you’ll pass by the National Palace, a stunning landmark with its iconic twin chimneys. As you continue, your guide will share captivating stories of the many palaces you will find in the area, bringing history to life as you cycle.
The route takes you through scenic forest roads, offering breathtaking views of Sintra’s landscape. You'll pass by Monserrate Palace, a hidden gem in the forest. Next, you will take a well-deserved break at a typical local restaurant.
(Lunch is included, featuring the traditional Portuguese cuisine. If you have any dietary restrictions, adjustments can be made to ensure you enjoy your meal. Vegan, gluten free and dairy free options are available.)
After lunch, you’ll ride toward a scenic swing with a stunning view over Sintra Natural Park, the perfect place to take some pictures all together. From there, the adventure continues through the forest, leading to one of the tour’s highlights—Pena Palace. This is a beautiful and colorful ancient palace on top of one of Sintra´s hills.
At Pena Palace, you'll visit its beautiful gardens, where you’ll be guided through its paths, and breathtaking viewpoints. While the tour does not include access inside the rooms of the palace, the gardens alone offer a magical experience with panoramic views of Sintra and beyond.
As the tour comes to an end, you’ll enjoy a downhill ride back to the bike hand-in location, where we will celebrate the end of the tour with a second surprise.
Finally, you'll hop back on the train with your guide for the return trip to Lisbon, reflecting on an incredible day.
