What you'll see and do
Castelo dos Mouros
Moorish Castle – Sintra Monuments Skirting two Sintra mountain ranges, the Moorish Castle dates back to the early days of the Moorish occupation of the Peninsula - the eighth century. After many attempts, was finally taken by Dom Afonso Henriques first king of Portugal in 1147, and was built the first Christian Chapel of the city, dedicated to St. Peter of Penaferrim. In the romantic period, in 1860, the walls were restored under the supervision of Dom Fernando II, husband of Dona Maria II, who wooded the surrounding areas, and gave a new dignity to the ancient medieval ruins. Noteworthy is the Moorish Cistern inside and the so-called Royal Tower. Located about 3.5 km from the historic center of Sintra.

Quinta da Regaleira was built in the early twentieth century by millionaire Antonio Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (1848-1920), who managed to realize one of his dreams here with the help of scenographic architect Luigi Manini (1848-1936). Surrounded by lush greenery, Palácio da Regaleira is a fascinating discovery. The palace was built in a romantic revivalist style, imitating Gothic, Manueline and Renaissance architectural and decorative forms, mixed with mythical and esoteric symbolism. A special mention is reserved for the Holy Trinity Chapel, where visitors can take a spiral staircase down to the crypt to discover the monumental initiation pit that, deep down, leads through a cave to an amazing lake hidden in the middle of the gardens. .

THE BEST DAY in Sintra!!
This was an incredible experience. Jorge picked us up at our hotel and dropped us off at the airport at the end of the day - it was super convenient as we didn't have to worry about finding a place to store our luggage. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and personable. We explored the Pena castle, went to the wine tasting and had time to explore downtown Cintra. Jorge took us to the most amazing restaurant for lunch and we enjoyed eating with him and hearing his stories and experiences. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour and ask for Jorge!!
Response from the operator: Hello Lisa, We are so glad to read your review! That makes us so proud as a team and Jorge, as a dedicated professional, felt very happy. Thank you so much for your support!!!

Response from the operator: Hello Wendy, We are so glad to read your review! That makes us so proud as a team and Nuno, as a dedicated professional, felt very happy. Thank you so much for your support!!!

Clarity on the description would’ve helped in setting expectatiion
Phillip was good , he had some great recommendations and was engaging . The description of the tour was deceiving. Based on the description we had a different idea of how the wine tasting will be which was different from how it was described . But sintra was beautiful and Philip was spot on and had done good insights .
Response from the operator: Hello Manju ...we're very sorry that the wine tasting experience didn't fullfill your expecations, Colares wine beside being exclusive its rare and with a very small yearly production. Its a cooperative, still maintained by just a few private local producers. The wine tasting was done but the experience there is allways incomparable to the bigger on size wine cellars and producers, like in Douro, Alentejo and Dão. We are so glad to read your review! That makes us so proud as a team and Filipe, as a dedicated professional, felt very happy. Come back soon. Thank you so much for your support!!!

Private Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sintra.
How much does Private Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings cost?
+
Prices start at $189 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 Private Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings 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 Private Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 6 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 Private Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings?
+
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 Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings 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 Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings?
+
Around 2 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 Private Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings 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.

+
Included: WiFi on board; Hotel pickup and drop-off; All taxes, fees and handling charges; Private tour; and Bottled water. Not included: Food; and Tickets. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

What languages is Private Tour Sintra With Wine Tastings offered in?
+
