A planning call with Daniel is optional, whenever useful.

A deliberately shorter escape

Half-Day

Full-Day All-Inclusive · Our signature experience

Give Sintra a whole day.

If this is your first or only day in Sintra, this is the experience we recommend. Eight hours leaves room to discover more, pause when you want to, and enjoy a proper Portuguese lunch.

Time for the places.
Time to enjoy them.

A longer day means fewer difficult trade-offs between the palaces, the coast and the moments in between. We shape a realistic route around your interests, with time for breaks along the way.

“Our all-inclusive Sintra tour with Daniel Ponce of Yes, You Deserve Tours was hands-down the best travel experience we’ve ever had.”

Alexanders Out

How would you like to spend it?

More monument interiors means fewer outside activities. We would rather give you time to enjoy your choices than rush through a longer list.

1 + 4

One Palace, More of Sintra

1 monument inside + 4 activities

Give one interior your full attention, with more room for the coast, a tasting or other outdoor stops.

A good starting point if you want a palace visit and a varied day beyond its gates. We choose the four activities with you.

2 + 2

A Balanced Day

2 monuments inside + 2 activities

Explore two different interiors and leave space for two experiences beyond the palace rooms.

A good starting point if two interiors are high on your list. Together, we choose the two activities that best complement them.

3

A Day Inside the Palaces

3 monument interiors

Spend the day with the architecture, rooms and stories that draw you to Sintra.

A good starting point for a day focused on interiors. Three monument visits leave less room for outside activities.

These are starting points. We agree the monuments, activities and timings with you before the tour.

A Few Things You May Be Wondering

Practical answers before you choose your private Sintra experience.

If this is your first or only day in Sintra, we recommend the Full-Day. Eight hours gives the day a more relaxed rhythm, with room for more of Sintra and the coast and a traditional Portuguese lunch. Choose the Half-Day if you have one clear priority or deliberately prefer a shorter experience. More time can also allow for better pacing and breaks.

Both experiences include your private guide, transport during the tour, private pickup and return for guests staying in Lisbon or Cascais, and tickets for the monuments agreed in your itinerary. Colares wine tasting is included when chosen as an activity. The Full-Day also includes a traditional Portuguese lunch and an optional planning call with Daniel when useful. The Half-Day does not include lunch.

Yes. We arrange private pickup and return for guests staying in Lisbon or Cascais. The Half-Day’s four-hour duration includes the transfers. Your return time and place are agreed beforehand. You may enjoy free time after the tour and return later, even after dinner, without extending your guide’s time. Dinner is not included.

Yes. It is your own group with a private guide. You will not be joining another group. We arrange suitable transport for your confirmed booking.

Tell us the places you most want to see and the pace you enjoy. We will suggest a route that makes sense for your chosen duration, with time for the visits and activities you agree. The Full-Day allows 1 monument inside plus 4 activities, 2 interiors plus 2 activities, or 3 monument interiors. The Half-Day allows 1 interior plus 1 activity, or 3 activities without interior visits. We recommend choosing well rather than trying to fit in everything.

A traditional Portuguese lunch at a local family restaurant is included with the Full-Day. Lunch is not included with the Half-Day. Please tell us about dietary requirements while we plan, so the team can confirm suitable arrangements.

All ages are welcome. Children aged 6 and above can generally join the tuk-tuk experience. For younger children, we arrange a suitable private car or van. The team still needs to confirm vehicle suitability and the specific booking. For seniors, we plan around the pace and breaks you prefer; a Full-Day can give you more room to take your time.

Please tell us about walking, steps or vehicle access that may be difficult before booking. We will discuss suitable places, pacing and transport, and confirm what is possible for your group. Sintra’s hills and historic monuments vary in accessibility, so we do not assume every route will suit everyone.

We coordinate your agreed tickets and entry times to make the day run smoothly. Security checks and entrance queues may still apply, so we cannot guarantee that every line can be skipped.

Talk to us about the forecast and your group’s comfort. We will discuss the route and any suitable adjustments with you. Weather, site closures and booking changes are subject to the Refund and Cancellation Policy.

All-Inclusive experiences involve reservations made in advance. Please read our Refund and Cancellation Policy and the conditions in your booking confirmation. If you are unsure how they apply to your plans, ask us before you reserve.

Start by sending your dates and group size. We will help you choose your experience and confirm the arrangements. A deposit is required to secure the booking. If you already know your date, the existing online booking option is also available in the contact section.
