• Experience a visit to the westernmost point of mainland Europe, Cabo da Roca, and be sure to grab a certificate commemorating your visit as a souvenir. Gaze at the historic lighthouse as you hike along the coast.

• Experience a hike to Praia da Ursa, a secluded beach with golden sandy shores and an outcropping of large rocks, as this beach gets its name from the Rocha da Ursa, or bear rock. Hike the steep trail to arguably one of the best beaches in Sintra.

• Experience a tour of Chalet e Jardim da Condessa D'Edla, an Alpine chalet-inspired 19th-century house and garden that were built by King Fernando II. This chalet preserves one of the greatest love stories in Portuguese history, as the king consort built it to win over the classical singer that he fell in love with, and the garden features botanical species from all over the world.
