Cabo da Roca: Stand at Cabo da Roca, the dramatic, windswept westernmost point of continental Europe. Feel the pure spirit of adventure as you gaze at the infinite horizon where the land ends and the sea begins.

Expert Guided Storytelling: Your local guide enhances the experience, sharing legends and curiosities that transform each palace, garden, and ancient wall into a living story.
Perched high in the Sintra mountains, Pena Palace looks straight out of a dream — a mix of vivid colors, Gothic spires, and romantic terraces. Wander through royal halls filled with antiques and step onto the terrace for sweeping views of the Atlantic coast.
Explore the ancient Moorish fortress, where stone walls wind along the mountain ridge. Climb its towers for spectacular panoramic views — a reminder of Portugal’s medieval past and the enduring power of history.
Uncover the mysteries of Quinta da Regaleira, a fantasy estate filled with symbolic gardens, hidden tunnels, and the famous Initiation Well, where every spiral step tells a story of myth and mysticism.
Visit the Sintra National Palace, the best-preserved medieval royal residence in Portugal. Inside, admire hand-painted tiles, grand ceilings, and stories of the monarchs who once called this palace home.
Continue to Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe. Feel the powerful ocean wind, watch waves crash below the towering cliffs, and take in one of the most breathtaking views in Portugal.
Stop at Boca do Inferno (“Mouth of Hell”), a dramatic sea cave near Cascais where waves thunder into the rock formations. It’s a perfect spot for photos and witnessing the raw force of the Atlantic.
End your adventure in Cascais, a charming seaside town filled with palm-lined promenades, golden sands, and elegant cafés. Stroll along the marina or relax by the bay as the sun sets over the ocean.
