Sintra, Serra de Mitérios Seculares
Come with us to meet a more mystical and occult Sierra de Sintra side, Humanity Universal Heritage. On this tour we will know its people and customs. Come and feel what is considered the most beautiful Portugal Sierra, but also the most mystical. We take you to its highest points, its secrets and mysteries, as the “Capuchos” Convent, where even today it is said that “those who wish to penetrate the mystery of the convent must first die.” Have lunch at a rural tavern and sample the genuine flavor of this land.
