This morning, we'll hop on a return train to Sintra, trading city streets for colourful palaces, winding lanes and a slower pace of life. Spend some time exploring this storybook town, where grand architecture, leafy hillsides and charming cafes make it easy to see why it's one of Portugal's most-loved destinations. Back in the capital, the afternoon is yours to do as you please. Wander Lisbon's atmospheric neighbourhoods, settle into a local cafe, hunt down another pastel de nata, or simply soak up the laid-back Portuguese way of life. With free time on your side, there's plenty of opportunity to explore at your own pace.
