What you'll see and do
Monastery of Alcobaca
Alcobaça is located in the valleys of the Alcoa and Baça rivers, which according to some writers gave it its name. According to other interpretations it was the name of this town of Arab origin that was divided to baptize the two rivers. Alcobaça owes its fame and development to the Monastery or Royal Abbey of Santa Maria, founded in 1153 by the Order of Cister, and which began to be built in 1178, on land donated to Frei Bernardo de Claraval, founder of the Order of Cister, by the 1st king of Portugal, D. Afonso Henriques, in fulfillment of a vow made after the Christian Reconquest of Santarém, which was in the possession of the Moors until 1147. Erected according to the model of the Abbey of Claraval, the motherhouse of the Order of Cister in France, the Monastery of Alcobaça is a beautiful monument classified as a heritage of humanity by UNESCO.

Nazare
Nazareth Villas and Villas Typical fishing village, Nazaré is today a busy holiday resort, where, parallel to the crowd of tourists, you can still see fish sellers and shells stretched to dry through all the streets of the village. The neighborhood of Sitio, at the highest point of the village (accessible by cable car), is undoubtedly the best viewpoint in the region. But it is also associated with the cult of Our Lady of Nazareth, which, according to the legend of the 12th century, was invoked by the Alcide (commandant of a fortress or castle) D. Fuas Roupinho who, while chasing a deer, was about to fall into an abyss with no possibility of salvation. As a sign of gratitude for the mercy received, D. Fuas Roupinho ordered to build a small chapel - the Hermitage of Memory. A little further away, in the eighteenth century, the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Nazareth was built, in whose honor grandiose feasts are held in September.

Obidos Village
The medieval village of Óbidos is one of the most picturesque and well preserved in Portugal. Near the capital and located in an elevated area near the Atlantic coast, Óbidos had a strategic importance for the territory. It had already been inhabited before the arrival of the Romans on the Iberian Peninsula and prospered after being chosen by the royal family. King D. Dinis offered it to his wife, Queen Elizabeth, in the 13th century, and became part of the House of Queens, which improved and enriched it throughout the various dynasties. This is one of the main reasons for the high concentration of churches in this small place. You will find a well preserved castle within the walls and a maze of streets and white houses that are a delight to stroll. Along with the Manueline porches, the colourful florists and the small squares, many beautiful examples of religious and civil architecture from the golden times of the village offer countless reasons for a visit.

Alcobaça Nazaré and Obidos Private from Lisbon: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sintra.
How much does Alcobaça Nazaré and Obidos Private from Lisbon cost?
+
Prices start at $251 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sintra usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Alcobaça Nazaré and Obidos Private from Lisbon take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sintra is not rushed.
Is Alcobaça Nazaré and Obidos Private from Lisbon worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sintra, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Alcobaça Nazaré and Obidos Private from Lisbon?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Alcobaça Nazaré and Obidos Private from Lisbon suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Alcobaça Nazaré and Obidos Private from Lisbon?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sintra can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sintra and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Alcobaça Nazaré and Obidos Private from Lisbon start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sintra within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sintra?
+
On Outty we rank every Sintra experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sintra Historical Jeep Adventure - Palaces & Secret Routes, Sintra Jeep Safari, Private Tour to Sintra from Lisbon - Palaces, Gardens & Coast. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sintra?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sintra?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
