5-Day Private Tour of Lisbon and Region — Lisbon, Sintra, Evora & Fatima in Comfort
Select participants and date
The day begins before the city fully wakes: amber light spreads over the Tagus, trams click awake, and your driver eases a luxury SUV through narrow Alfama alleys where delivery carts still dodge morning tourists. This is not a one-size-fits-all hop-on bus; it’s a private five-day sweep of Portugal’s central coast and interior that moves at the pace you set—photo stops at Belém’s tower, a slow walk through Sintra’s mossed terraces, and a late stop at Cabo da Roca where the Atlantic seems to dare you to look farther.

Adventure Tips
Book early for Sintra time slots
Sintra’s palaces and Quinta da Regaleira sell out fast—reserve any required entry tickets in advance and plan to arrive before midday to avoid crowds.
Pack grippy shoes
Cobblestones in Lisbon and steep paths in Sintra are slippery when wet—sturdy soles and ankle support make days more comfortable.
Plan for sun and spray
Coastal stops like Cabo da Roca and Nazaré are windy and sun-exposed—bring sun protection and a light windbreaker.
Use the driver as a local resource
Ask your driver for restaurant recommendations and quiet photo spots—their local knowledge will save you time and elevate the experience.
