Full description

Embark on a 6-hour electric bike tour with 4 different modes of assistance, making climbing the Sintra mountain a lot easier, even for those used to a sedentary lifestyle.

The tour begins with a briefing on how the bikes work. Then, head to Rossio station to catch the train for Sintra. During the train trip, you’ll have time to let your guide know if you’d like to visit some of the palaces along the way or if you just want to cycle.

When you arrive in Sintra, you can visit the National Palace if you like. Most of your cycling tour takes place within the natural park of Sintra-Cascais.

You’ll have the option of visiting Quinta da Regaleira, built between 1904 and 1910, a place renowned for its symbolism, magic, and mystery. Shortly after you’ll pass by Seteais, a former 18th-century palace that is now a 5-star hotel.  

Continue your trip along roads flanked by majestic groves until you reach the entrance of Monserrate Park and Palace, one of the most beautiful creations in the Portuguese Romanticism style.

Arrive at Colares, a place that’s well known for its vineyards. Continue on to Penedo village, where you’ll enjoy breathtaking views from the atrium of the church, before cycling on to Urgueira village.

Take a break for lunch in Azóia village, where you’ll find a great variety of restaurants. With renewed energy, continue your tour through an ancient forest and make your way up to the Peninha Sanctuary, located 488 meters above sea level.

From here, you’ll have a panoramic view of the Espichel Cape and Arrábida, to the south, Carvoeiro Cape and Berlengas, to the north, and the entire Sintra mountain to the northeast.

Returning to the center of Sintra, you’ll cycle downhill and have one last look at Pena Palace, an important monument of the Portuguese Romanticism movement.

You’ll be traveling with an informative and helpful guide, as passionate about beloved Sintra as about cycling.

Alternatively, go down to Guincho wild beach – with its never-ending dunes and typical winds that are so treasured by windsurfing lovers – until you reach the bicycle path to Cascais.

Return to Lisbon through the beautiful town of Cascais by train where you will have one of the most amazing views over the Portuguese coast.

Awesome! Road to the train station and took the train to Sintra. Saw some of the palaces and was told the history of Sintra. Road up the mountain and had an excellent lunch at a local restaurant. Road to Guiche Beach and the to Cascais. Took train back with the bikes. About 47km. Was excellent!

We had a very nice time, but the trip was scheduled for 6 hours and was not over for about 9 hours 15 minutes. Do not expect to see any of the tourist sites. This is strictly a bicycle tour. You will stop in front of two castles for about 10 minutes for a brief history lesson, but will not have time to walk around and see the area. The lunch is not of your choosing. We stopped at a specific restaurant in a small village where everyone had to eat at the only restaurant that was there. You will see a lot of the beautiful natural views of the area. Mountains, forest, villages, oceans, etc. This activity is also for physically fit people. Even though the bikes are electric assist, there is a lot of pedaling on hills and uneven surfaces. Our guide was nice as could be and we enjoyed his company.

We had a fantastic trip to Cascais/Sintra with our guide Danielle. The e-bikes were absolutely amazing. We rode in blowing rain along the coast line, bikes did fine, and climbed the hills in the park with incredibly tall trees and fog. It was spectacular. Then down into Sintra, riding along the amazing palaces and castles—by this time the rain had stopped and the skies were blue. We ate lunch at a funky restaurant closer to Sintra for cyclists. Great experience. Highly recommend taking this trip.
