Overview

Sintra, World Heritage site, capital of romanticism. Its micro-climate is behind the exuberant vegetation that was often praised by romantic poets of the nineteenth century, namely Lord Byron. You will have the opportunity to visit various Palaces of Sintra and to taste the traditional pastries.

Next… Mafra. A few kilometres away, where we will visit the most important Portuguese Baroque monument. The National Palace of Mafra was built in the 18th century by King D. Joao V. There are those who claim that it was a promise he made in the name of the offspring, he would get from Queen D. Maria Ana of Austria. Its construction is also the subject of “Memorial do Convento”, a book written by the Portuguese Nobel Prize winner, Jose Saramago. We will visit the library, the infirmary, the hospital, the convent and the basilica with its atrium decorated with Italian sculptures and a set of six organs, unique in the world.

What To Expect

Sintra

Sintra is without a doubt one of the most extraordinary places in Portugal. Its microclimate transforms this small town situated on the slopes of the mountain range “Serra de Sintra” next to the Atlantic, into a major attraction for visitors who go there to admire its famous castles and palaces or simply taste the traditional food, pastries and sweets. And let’s not forget the souvenir shops selling typical local items. We will stop in the historic center where you will have time to try the famous “travesseiros” and “queijadas” at the Piriquita Pastry Shop and explore the narrow streets of the most romantic town in Portugal. Visit one of these palaces: National Palace of Sintra, National Palace of Pena, Quinta da Regaleira, Palace of Monserrate. (optional visit - admission fees apply)

Palacio Nacional de Mafra

The National Palace of Mafra is the most majestic palace in Portugal. It was built in the 18th century during the reign of King Joao V, the richest monarch of Europe at the time. The gold from “Minas Gerais” in Brazil, a Portuguese colony then, financed the enormous constructions executed under the order of this king, namely the Aqueduct of “Aguas Livres” in Lisbon and this enormous palace with the private quarters of the King and Queen located at each extremity with distance of 232 meters (7050 feet) from each other. The highlights of this visit to the interior of this Baroque palace include the stately library, the nursing ward and hospital, the convent and the Basilica where an atrium is decorated with Italian sculptures and marble features.
