Best tour experience in our time in Portugal!
I highly recommend this private tour. Jose is knowledgeable and very experienced as a guide and paced the day in a way that felt tailored just for us. The palace was stunning and wine tasting with Carlos was fantastic- the wines were quality and the company and conversation with Jose and Carlos felt like spending time with friends. We learned so much about the history and culture of Sintra and hope to return someday. The beautiful coastline around Cascais was a perfect way to end the day. Great experience!!!!

Amazing day - book now and ask for Jose!
Our day with Jose from Lisbon on Wheels was nothing short of unforgettable. It was our anniversary, and Jose made it feel truly magical from beginning to end. He thoughtfully customized the entire itinerary around what we love, and somehow struck the perfect balance, knowing when to keep us moving and when to let us linger and take it all in. What really stood out was not just his incredible knowledge of Portugal’s history, culture, and hidden treasures, but the genuine care he put into every moment. He shared stories, insights, and local gems that brought everything to life in such a personal, meaningful way. By the end of the day, it didn’t feel like we were on a tour, it felt like we were spending time with a dear friend who wanted nothing more than for us to have the best experience possible. We’re still in awe of how much we saw and how smoothly everything flowed. Chris and I will forever remember this day, and we’ll be reaching out to Jose every time we’re in Portugal. He’s not just an incredible guide, he’s someone we now consider a friend. THANK YOU Jose and Lisbon on Wheels!!!!♥️

Jose’ was an amazing...
Jose’ was an amazing guide for this tour!! He is very friendly and knowledgeable!!! He took us to so many sights that we wouldn’t have seen on our own. We highly recommend this trip but you must ask for Jose’.

EXCELLENT tour through surrounding areas of Lisbon
A great trip for incredible value. Our itinerary was packed with interesting sites and lovely views of some areas surrounding Lisbon, including Queluz National Palace (a highly underrated gem of Rococo architecture), Cabo do Roca, Sintra, Cascais, and a wonderful wine tasting in Colares. Cascais was very, very busy but this is understandable as the Iron Man Triathalon was taking place there. But the true highlight of our day was our guide, Jose Ribeiro. As other reviews on this website will likely tell you, Jose was INCREDIBLE. He was punctual, accommodating, extremely knowledgeable and above all that, an extremely down-to-earth and friendly person with a great personality and backstory - talking to Jose about life and the history of the area - as well as his own history in Portugal - was fascinating and added so much to the experience. Jose also offered to customize the experience to deviate from the itinerary - for example, making recommendations to skip Pena Palace altogether due to timing and crowds - which became obvious as a great suggestion once we descended into Sintra - this saved us both time and frustration, allowing us to spend more time in other areas. I recommend this tour in order to see the attractions listed but even more so I STRONGLY recommend going with Jose and Lisbon on Wheels. You will have an absolutely fantastic time regardless of where you go.

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Sintra from Lisbon with Wine Tasting and Queluz Palace: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Private Sintra from Lisbon with Wine Tasting and Queluz Palace cost?
+
Prices start at $10 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Sintra from Lisbon with Wine Tasting and Queluz Palace 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 Lisbon is not rushed.
Is Private Sintra from Lisbon with Wine Tasting and Queluz Palace worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Sintra from Lisbon with Wine Tasting and Queluz Palace?
+
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 Private Sintra from Lisbon with Wine Tasting and Queluz Palace 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 Private Sintra from Lisbon with Wine Tasting and Queluz Palace?
+
Around 4 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 Lisbon 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 Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Sintra from Lisbon with Wine Tasting and Queluz Palace 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 Lisbon 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 Lisbon?
+
On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, True 4Hour Private Tuk Tuk Tour: Discover Lisbon with a Local!. 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 Lisbon?
+
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 Lisbon?
+
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.
