Hello everybody! Welcome to Sintra, this enchanting village on the mountain slope by the Atlantic Ocean! My name is Ana, I am a local and a Licensed Tour Guide and today I am taking you around the fabulous, green, lush, and full of stories mountain of Sintra! This Audio Tour is perfect to let you know more about Sintra, its Palaces, History, and curiosities, but also to get oriented, to know how to move around and decide which are the best monuments for you to visit, since I make a little description of all of them! Always fresher than Lisbon and the ideal place for hunting, Sintra was chosen by Portuguese Kings and several aristocrats to have their summertime palaces or residences. All of this beautiful Nature and the so diverse Palaces we can find here, make Sintra, the Mountain of the Moon, a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Hope you are ready to start discovering! The Tour lasts about 1 hour if you don't go inside any monument. It starts at the Train Station and ends close to Quinta da Regaleira, passing by the city center.
