This tour combines two of the most beautiful monuments of Sintra - The Monserrate Palace and the Capuchin Convent, a very special place to our hearts! The convent is one of the oldest places in Sintra and is stunning in its simplicity!

Itinerary

  1. Parque e Palacio de Monserrate

    2 hours Admission included

    The Palace of Monserrate and its lush gardens are a place of serenity and beauty, although very different from all the other palaces in Sintra, personally speaking, one of the most beautiful! Have a very interesting history, you will learn of its importance during the Second World War and the part it played in it!

  2. Convento dos Capuchos

    1 h 30 min Admission included

    This is a one of a kind! A convent built-in among huge boulders of granite... the uniqueness of this place is without parallel, the monks who used to live here lead a very simple life and it's all reflected in the surrounding area! You will feel immersed in this other world and question why is it possible that people lived like this?? Awesome!
