ONE DAY TOUR

---

Sintra and Cabo da Roca 
 
Romantic, charming, historical, mystical, fairytale-like, and UNESCO World Heritage Site are just some of the words to describe Sintra. It was a playground for royalty for centuries and is now a perfect one for photographers and tourists alike.
 
Bring your camera and in just one day we’ll take you to some of best places for photography in Sintra. We’ll meet you at 9:00 am in front the National Palace and start our day touring the outside palace with tall chimneys reaching into the sky  and views overlooking the picture perfect town. 
 
We’ll have lunch in a village café, (not included,) before driving through the forested hills above Sintra. There you’ll see a rugged landscape with huge boulders that look like they were flung by angry giants millions of years ago. We’ll stop at Peninha, the highest point in Cascais Sintra National park, to take photographs of the valley and sea below. The 12th Century chapel was rebuilt in the 17th Century and boasts a fantastic view over the sea. Women used to go there to watch the ships and pray for the safe return of their husbands.
 
Next we’ll drive to Cabo da Roca, (the most westerly point in continental Europe,) where you can photograph the lighthouse and vistas of the sea. The lighthouse was built in 1772 and was the first purpose-built one in Portugal. It stands on a cliff high above the Atlantic Ocean where waves pound and crash against the rocky shore.
 
We’ll return to Sintra by 5:00 pm. You will be eager to see the wonderful images you captured during the day and we hope you’ll share some with us.
