We set off towards Sesimbra, a town that has evolved from a traditional fishing village into a popular Portuguese summer resort known for its delightful restaurants, beautiful beaches, and stunning natural surroundings. From there, we continue to the Serra da Arrábida Natural Park, a haven of breath-taking landscapes revealed from various viewpoints atop the mountains, as well as pristine, paradisiacal beaches nestled at the mountain’s base. Our next stop is Setúbal, a city with a rich history dating back to ancient Phoenician and Roman times, long connected to maritime activities. Once one of the country’s most important ports in the 19th century, Setúbal offers authentic culinary experiences, and we recommend enjoying lunch at a local restaurant where you can savor fresh grilled fish or the traditional crunchy fried cuttlefish, a specialty of the region.
Before departing Setúbal, we highlight the São Filipe Fort, now converted into an inn and offering spectacular views over the city, the Sado River, Troia Peninsula, and Serra da Arrábida. Continuing our journey, we head to the Palmela region, where the nearby town of Azeitão is famed for its excellent wineries, cheeses, and delicious traditional pies. A visit to a local cellar for wine tasting is highly recommended to fully experience the region’s flavors. After this unforgettable day filled with natural beauty, history, and gastronomy, we return to Lisbon crossing the impressive Vasco da Gama Bridge, one of Europe’s longest bridges, inaugurated in 1998, offering a fitting end to a memorable tour.

There were eight of us in our tour to Cascais and Sintra, our tour guide Filipa was excellent! Very kind, great driver, super knowledgeable and personable. We toured Pena Castle as well, and it was an awesome experience to do a tour with this company!!
I had the most amazing experience on this tour to Our Lady of Fátima, Nazaré, and Óbidos. Each stop was breathtaking in its own way; from the peace and spirituality of Fátima, to the stunning coastline of Nazaré, and the charming medieval streets of Óbidos. What made the tour truly unforgettable was our guide, Tony. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also warm, engaging, and thoughtful throughout the entire day. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt comfortable and had the best experience possible. Honestly, Tony is the best tour guide I’ve ever had, and I can’t recommend this tour enough! A special thank you to Tony from both my mom and me. You made this day such a meaningful and memorable experience for us, and we’re truly grateful for the care, kindness, and passion you shared along the way.
We had a marvelous all day tour of Lisbon. Nono Goncalves was our guide & he skillfully and knowledgeabley directed us site to site adding context to what we were observing. Totally grateful
We had a fantastic day with our private tour guide, Nuno! He was very passionate and knowledgeable about Portugal's culture and history. We saw some amazing places and learned a lot. The whole family was very pleased with this adventure! I would definitely recommend this tour while in Lisban!
We got “stuck” 🥰 with Filipa for three days of touring Sintra, Lisbon, Obidos, and Pena Palace and cannot say enough good things about her. She was personable, extremely knowledgeable about Portuguese history, the places we visited, and was a great storyteller as well. She was able to tie stories together from each place we visited over multiple days, knew the cities and countryside very well, and was able to get us the best views/photos (and pastries!!) without paying extra. Filipa made our vacation a success and our trip would not have been the same without her. Will definitely repeat with Selection Tours (and hopefully Filipa) when we return to Lisbon.
