What you can expect

This activity is for you to feel comfortable, see the beauty of Sintra's nature, and feel fulfilled in your natural curiosity - one of the things that most pleasure gives us in life.

The route will be tailored to how you feel on the day, both physically and in terms of the questions you may have, based upon what is going to be told to you - in a light conversation - on Sintra's History. With Miguel Boim's in-depth knowledge of the old town, mountains, legends and history of Sintra (the wolves, the Knights Templar, the inquisition, the portuguese habits, the apparitions in the old convents and monasteries, among others), it's possible to adapt the tour to your needs and wishes.

Through the centuries-old streets, alleys and passageways, with brief passages in the forest, views of the former Royal Palace, Pena Palace and the Moorish Castle, while filling your heart with details in the landscape, this journey will make you revive the past in a light-hearted communication (without the usual flooding of dates and academic jargon). It's an off-the-grid experience that will imprint on your chest a beautiful and lasting memory of Sintra (opposite to the usual crowded tours).

The mysteries of the Mountain of the Moon (with the mystery of the name itself, which its origin is unknown) from the time before the Romans, the stays and hunts in the medieval era with the royal family, and the eternal fog that instigated legends and apparitions in the fantasy of people's minds, are the parts and pieces of history that constitute the ingredients of your passage through Sintra, on this pleasant and light walking tour.
