Half-Day Tour to Sintra - Recommendations & Tips

IMPORTANT MESSAGE: NEW CAR RESTRICTIONS IN SINTRA, READ HERE
 
Thousands of people arriving to Lisbon always have on their mind to visit Sintra, which is obviously a must-do. If you are coming to Lisbon, you MUST visit Sintra, one of the most charming, historical and romantic cities in Europe.

Normally, to visit Sintra, it’s always recommended a full-day, as I have written in the past, because Sintra has a lot to see, and you need time to reach each place, to visit, etc: SEE HERE

Visitors with limited time in Lisbon, might want to visit Sintra for half-day only, due lack of time.
It can certainly be possible, knowing in advance the following recommendations:

  • Book a private tour guide to help you with the visit: See HERE
  • Don’t visit on your own. You will need time to reach one place to another
  • Avoid using public transportation, if your time is limited
  • A good itinerary is to visit Pena National Palace early in the morning
  • Follow your visit with the old village of Sintra
  • A visit to Regaleira might be possible, depending on your time available
  •  
     
    Enjoy Sintra, and let me know if you have any questions.
