Itinerary
Arrival in Santa Cruz
Welcome to Portugal!
One of our guides will transfer you to Santa Cruz and introduce you to the great trip that awaits you. Areias do Seixo is a unique and charming hotel located along the beautiful coastline of Portugal. Nestled amidst the dunes and overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this eco-friendly retreat offers a one-of-a-kind experience for those seeking a blend of luxury and nature. The perfect beginning for your trip!
Hike from Vimeiro to Santa Cruz
This day will start with a transfer to Vimeiro, where your first hike begins.
Experience a wide open coastline between dunes, valleys, and small villages. You will feel a rural atmosphere with a touch of luxury, a representation of the past uniting with the present. Heading to the wild ocean, the goal today is to reach your hotel back in Santa Cruz. Enjoy magnificent panoramic views with the beaches of Porto Novo and Santa Rita highlighted. The ridge towards your hotel will offer excellent panoramic views along the cliffs of the Maceira Valley, the Alcabrichel River, and the Miradouro / Baloiço do Pitagudo.
Hike from Magoito to Praia Grande
Sintra's mountain will take your breath away!
Renowned for its natural beauty, Magoito Beach boasts a mix of golden sands and pebbles set against a backdrop of rugged cliffs and dunes. With its relatively untouched atmosphere, Magoito Beach is a picturesque destination that combines the tranquility of nature with the thrill of Atlantic surf. Today, you will be heading south to Praia Grande Beach, translating to "Big Beach," a stunning coastal gem on the western edge of Portugal. Along your journey, you will also have a chance to enjoy the beaches of Azenhas do Mar and Maçãs, or "Apples" in English.
Hike Sintra Loop
Explore the hills above the village of Sintra.
This day is reserved for exploring the hills above the village of Sintra and enjoying the vast architectural patrimony set on the mountain. Such is the grandeur and importance of these buildings and monuments that Sintra's cultural landscape was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1995. Visit the Moorish Castle and the fabulous Pena Palace, with its exuberant and exotic gardens. Today, you will feel like a king or queen, finishing the evening with an exquisite dinner at the village center.
Hike from Peninha to Guincho
Today will be a gorgeous day!
After a delicious breakfast, you will emerge into a scenery over the cliffs where the ocean stretches as far as your eyes can see. You will start your journey with a short transfer to Our Lady of Peninha Chapel. Perched on a hill top, the chapel offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, showcasing the natural beauty of the Sintra region. Discover impressive beaches nestling between cliffs, artistically sculpted by the power of nature.
Hike from Guincho to Pisão to Cascais
Get to know the beautiful villa of Cascais.
Today is your last hiking day, where you will be heading towards Cascais, a charming coastal town and popular resort destination located on the Portuguese Riviera, just west of Lisbon. This town is known for its beautiful beaches, historic charm, and vibrant atmosphere, boasting a well-preserved historic center with narrow streets, colorful houses, and a variety of shops, cafes, and restaurants. The Citadel of Cascais is a notable landmark. Make sure to visit Boca do Inferno, or "Mouth of Hell," a natural rock formation, a dramatic cliffside spot where waves crash against the rocks, creating a spectacular display.

This tour was completely unexpected and one of the best tours if not the best I have ever been on. Our tour guide Filipe provided a tailored tour perfect to our needs and even went to the extra mile of contacting us to offer an alternative day as the day we booked was forecasted to be wet & rainy (which it turned out to be a very cold and rainy winter day). The alternative day was perfect weather and the views from the Moorish castle were amazing. Filipe provided us with a picnic lunch of local food; which I definitely recommend you try but wont say too much as I don’t want to give away any surprise. The half day tour ended up going for a full day as Filipe took us through the beautiful Pena palace and also the surrounding gardens. The day ended with a drive along the beautiful coastline. Filipe’s knowledge of the nature in the area and his eagerness to give us a great experience were truly welcoming. I will definitely look this tour franchise up again when I return to Portugal or Spain. The hike was relaxing and peaceful with impeccable views and touches of natures. If you are looking for something more thrilling or challenging then I’m sure Filipe could organise this for you with his extensive knowledge of the region. Thank you for an amazing tour and great memory of Lisbon!

We had a great private guided day hike and tour with Felis. Felis was wonderful — incredibly knowledge on the trails, paths and nooks and crannies of the sites to explore as well as being personable, warm and engaging. Felis adapted the day to what we wanted to see and explore, the trails, our hunger and the general conditions. Hid suggestions on the trails, sites and food spots were all great. He graciously suggested and took us to Cape Roca for a little cliff side walk at the end of the day which was a really nice treat. I would highly recommend Felis and Portugal Nature Trails.
