Lisbon Discovery

• Transfer : Transfer to hotel in Lisbon not included.

Lisbon old quarters are fascinating to discover on foot. This walk will take you through the centuries, since the Phoenicians have settled here, almost 3000 years ago. For 3 hours we will explore the picturesque neighbourhoods around the Downtown area including Alfama, the Castle of S. Jorge, Chiado and Bairro Alto. Discover all about the tragic earthquake that changed Lisbon forever in 1755 and delight yourselves on a Ginginha and the Pastel de Nata, two delicious Portuguese specialties.

Meeting point: Rossio Sq. (D. Pedro IV) – we can include transfer to meeting point (extra price) if the hotel booked for you is too far to walk.

In only a few hours, you will see and experience the World Heritage Site of Sintra in a way almost no visitor does: not only will you visit the village with its old palaces and manor houses but also the natural and exotic environment that surrounds it. Sintra is a prime Portuguese highlight. Since the ancient times its nature and beautiful rock formations have been attracting many people. It has always been a favourite spot for Romans, Arabs and the Portuguese Aristocracy.
The local pastry is simply delicious and off course you have the right to taste one! 

After the visit to the village we will head on to the trails of Sintra Natural Park. Here we’ll find superb hiking among dense forests and with astonishing sea views. Lunch will be at a bar on the fabulous Guincho beach, the wildest beach around Lisbon and favourite stop for surfers and windsurfers.

The day starts the day by visiting the castle of Sesimbra, with stunning views over the village and the ocean. The mountain hiking trails of Arrábida Natural Park follow a true Mediterranean environment mixing vineyards, cork tree forests and dramatic views over steep limestone cliffs. You will be involved by an outstanding nature with great ocean views yet not missing the rich history of this once a Moor state. Time for a local pastry, you deserve it by now! In the end we are a short drive away from a beach where you can have lunch in a beach-view restaurant. After lunch there is some time to enjoy the beach, a swim or a stroll along the shore.
Then it’s time to visit a local winery and enjoy a wine tasting.
