Sintra has been a popular summer retreat for the Portuguese Royal Family and consequently, the nobility and upper classes from Lisbon. The city witnessed the construction of numerous summer homes, chalets, residences, palaces, and castles that have given Sintra its quaint, opulent character today. Quinta da Regaleira is one such delightful summer abode encompassing a botanical garden with flora from worldwide, distinct architectural influences, and finest materials. It has the appearance of an open-air opera set with the infamous Initiatic Well being a key attraction. Adjacent to it is another remarkable summer villa known as Biester Palace. It also exhibits an assortment of plants from around the globe and diverse architectural styles being distinctly exhibited in the palace. Impressive belvederes enhance the stunning vistas. The palace has gained fame for the filming of “The Ninth Gate” starring Johnny Depp.
- During the summer and especially on very hot days, the access to Sintra Monuments can be closed by local authorities due to the risk of wildfire. This information can only be released on the same day of the tour, so Cooltours cannot be held responsible for these situations, which are beyond our control. We will do everything to comply with the program, but if not, we will have other alternatives such as Sintra National Palace.
