The first point that you will visit is Sintra, a world heritage site by UNESCO and graced with a unique beauty, reflecting the perfect fusion between nature and the greatness of its heritage.

Quinta da Regaleira
As an alternative to the Pena Palace, you may visit the extravagant Quinta da Regaleira, which was built in the 20th century.

Estoril
Estoril has long welcomed international visitors, and during World War II, it acquired a glamorous reputation when Portugal's neutrality and mild weather attracted the rich and famous, German and English spies, and European royals and aristocrats. The town is still a fashionable cosmopolitan destination with Europe's largest casino.
