    Amazing private tour

    We had an amazing private tour from Lisbon to Sintra with Diogo. From the very beginning, he was so friendly, reliable and punctual, making the whole experience super smooth and stress-free for us. What impressed us most was his outstanding knowledge of Portuguese history. He shared fascinating stories and insights throughout the day, bringing the region’s history to life. In addition to the famous sights, he showed us many hidden gems and local spots that we would never have discovered on our own. The tour was perfectly tailored to our interests and remained very flexible throughout the day. Diogo also took us to a fantastic restaurant for lunch, which was another memorable part of the experience. We truly appreciated the personalized approach and attention to detail. We would not hesitate to book another tour with him in the future and can highly recommend both him and his agency to anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable experience in Portugal. Thank you, Diogo, for that wonderful day! 😊 Lisa + Emily

    You can’t find a better tour!

    If you do one thing while in Lisbon, book a tour with Outing! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, Outing was incredibly helpful, responsive, and easy to work with. We first heard about Outing and Diogo through family who visited Lisbon last Christmas (2024) and highly recommended booking a tour and we’re so glad we did. We booked our tour a few months in advance and even asked to add an extra stop, which Outing was more than happy to accommodate. The tour itself was amazing from beginning to end. It was just my husband, Diogo, and I, which made it feel very personal and totally relaxed. We were able to go at our own pace and really enjoy the moment. Diogo was extremely knowledgeable and answered every question we had, no matter how random. His fluency in both English and Portuguese made everything easy and his insights truly enhanced the experience and made our time in Lisbon unforgettable. We can’t recommend Outing (and Diogo) enough!

    Response from the operator: Dear Outer, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for trusting Outing Portugal with your Sintra's experience! We’re truly delighted to hear that your family’s recommendation led you to us and that your private tour exceeded expectations from start to finish. Creating a relaxed, personal experience — tailored to each guest’s pace and interests — is at the heart of what we do, and it means a lot to know that this made your time in Lisbon so special. Your kind words about Diogo’s knowledge, flexibility, and language skills reflect the passion and dedication we strive to deliver as a team every single day. It was a pleasure welcoming you, and we’re honored to have been part of such a memorable journey. Warm regards, The Outing Portugal Team

    Diogo delivers

    We cannot say enough good things about Diogo. He picked us up at the airport and was so helpful, charming and informative that we booked a Sintra tour with him. The tour was perfect. He navigated us through the Moorish Castle and the Pena Palace flawlessly. The depth of his knowledge of Portuguese history is incredible. He provided a truly wonderful experience.

    Response from the operator: Dear Outer, Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re truly delighted to know that your experience with Outing Portugal — from the airport pickup to the Sintra tour — was memorable. Our team is passionate about creating authentic journeys filled with history, comfort, and great moments. We hope to welcome you again soon for another adventure in Portugal! Warm regards, Outing Portugal Team

    Response from the operator: Dear Outer, Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful feedback. We are truly delighted to hear that you had such a positive experience with Diogo. His deep knowledge and dedication to creating a personalized and seamless tour experience reflect the high standards we strive for at Outing. On behalf of the entire Outing team, we sincerely appreciate your recommendation. It was our pleasure to host you, and we look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Warm regards, The Outing Team.

    Best tour of Lisboa and all of Portugal

    A one of a kind tour , with very knowledgeable guide. The guide was very accommodating and friendly. We were a group of 3, and the tour was personalized just for us, from the sights we wanted to see, and the pick up time. We booked for one day, and after the first tour , we booked many other tours. Highly recommend

    Sintra Without Crowds: Hidden Treasures and the Atlantic Coast: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.

    How much does Sintra Without Crowds: Hidden Treasures and the Atlantic Coast cost?

    +

    Prices start at $35 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 Sintra Without Crowds: Hidden Treasures and the Atlantic Coast 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 Sintra Without Crowds: Hidden Treasures and the Atlantic Coast worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 39 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 Sintra Without Crowds: Hidden Treasures and the Atlantic Coast?

    +

    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 Sintra Without Crowds: Hidden Treasures and the Atlantic Coast 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 Sintra Without Crowds: Hidden Treasures and the Atlantic Coast?

    +

    Around 14 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 Sintra Without Crowds: Hidden Treasures and the Atlantic Coast 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.
