Private Sintra and Wine Full Day Tour From Lisbon
Vineyards, palaces, coastal cliffs, and the edge of continental Europe in one remarkable day.
This private Sintra wine and heritage tour combines a guided visit to a historic wine estate, the fairy-tale architecture of Pena Palace, and the dramatic Atlantic cliffs of Cabo da Roca into a single, carefully paced full-day journey from Lisbon.
Starting with an immersive wine experience at a working vineyard estate, you will explore centuries-old cellars alongside local winemakers who walk you through the production and aging processes. Two curated wine tastings let you connect with the flavors of the Sintra region in a setting surrounded by green hillsides.
The afternoon shifts from viticulture to history, as your private guide leads you through the UNESCO-listed historic center of Sintra and inside Pena Palace. From there, the route descends toward the coast for a relaxed stroll through Cascais before reaching Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of continental Europe.
