Overview

Trade the city for a day of raw beauty, history, and adventure on this private 4x4 tour through Arrábida Natural Park and Sesimbra. Ride off-road through lush hills and coastal cliffs in a rugged Jeep, uncovering hidden spots that regular vehicles can’t reach.

Walk the walls of Sesimbra’s medieval castle, and step back millions of years as you come face-to-face with real dinosaur footprints at Cape Espichel.

Led by a private local guide, this tour offers a perfect mix of nature, history, and thrilling views—with personalized pickup and year-round availability from Lisbon, Almada, Sesimbra, or Setúbal.
