Tour Details

Fátima

After pick-up in Lisbon, we begin by heading to Fátima, one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in the world. Known for the apparitions of Our Lady in 1917, this sacred location welcomes millions of visitors every year.

At the Sanctuary of Fátima, you’ll have free time to visit:

  • Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary

  • Chapel of the Apparitions

  • Basilica of the Holy Trinity

Take a moment to reflect, light a candle, or simply feel the peaceful atmosphere that makes this place so special.

Sintra

Next, we drive to the magical town of Sintra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its lush hills and charming palaces. Our first suggested stop is the historic center, where you can stroll through its narrow cobbled streets, admire traditional tiles, and taste the famous Travesseiros de Sintra.

The village’s unique blend of architecture and nature makes it a favorite for artists, poets, and travelers alike.

Cabo da Roca

Then, we venture into the mountains to visit Cabo da Roca — the westernmost point of continental Europe. This dramatic cliffside location offers incredible views and photo opportunities. You’ll also see the iconic 18th-century lighthouse, which adds even more character to the landscape.

Cascais

Then, we follow the scenic coastal road past Guincho Beach and arrive in Cascais, a charming seaside town once favored by Portuguese nobility. Enjoy free time to walk by the bay, browse local boutiques, or simply relax by the water.

Return to Lisbon

Finally, we return to Lisbon through the scenic countryside, filled with lasting memories and stunning views. This tour is carefully crafted for a well-balanced and enriching day—but the pace and focus can adapt to your preferences.

A wonderful trip due to our driver/guide Pedro Alves and he was the best. So knowledgeable, a great historian!!! The whole adventure was seamlessly executed and extremely informative. I would highly recommend Yellow Cab TT Tours especially with Pedro!

My partner and I did the Cascais and Sintra tour early September and we had a great experience! Bruno was able to give us a lot of history during our drive and at all of the sites we stopped at during the day - he was very kind and knowledgeable, and we would definitely recommend this trip to our family and friends!
