Enjoy a private excursion to Cascais to play a round of golf at Oitavos Dunes. This iconic course was built around the natural sand dunes and umbrella pines of the coast and has panoramic views of the mountains and ocean.

One day, enjoy a private excursion to Sintra, an aristocratic town of fairy-tale palaces and gardens among forested hills. During private touring in this UNESCO World Heritage Site, visit the romantic National Palace of Pena, the spectacular National Palace of Sintra and the narrow streets in the historic center of the town, including the former Jewish quarter.
