Step by Step

If you are looking for a private tour with a local guide exclusively for you around Arrábida and Sesimbra, two of the most fantastic coastal places in Portugal, this is your chance. Moreover, you don't have to worry about transportation as a vehicle will pick you up in Lisbon and take you all the way back to your hotel in the Portuguese capital.

You will be able to enjoy the Arrábida Natural Park, where you will visit the breathtaking views of Cascais. As this is a private tour, you can manage your time and take the opportunity to swim or lie on the warm sands of beaches such as Portinho da Arrábida, Praia da Figueirinha and Albarquel.

On the way you will also pass by Cabo Espichel to visit the Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora do Cabo Espichel. There you will have the opportunity, being on the top of a cliff, to be amazed by the views of the place and the Atlantic Ocean.

The fishing village of Sesimbra is another stop on this tour, where you will enjoy the immensity of Sesimbra Castle. At leisure, you can have lunch on your own at some of the local places, such as Casa Mateus or Cantinho da Regina.

    The dolphin cruise was TOP! It added a thousand points to the experience. It is something I will never forget. I went with my partner and it felt like a dream. I would recommend it to everyone who wants to come.

    Lisbon's beaches are one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. Best of all, there are very few people so you can enjoy the experience feeling very safe and carefree.

    Sesimbra has an impressive gastronomic offer. If you go to this area you definitely have to eat fish or seafood. It is delicious and there are options for both children and adults.
