Palaces & Pathways of Sintra Traveller Reviews

Carefully selected accommodation and walking routes with exceptional welcome and service from staff at all accommodation used.

Excellent service from Inntravel staff at all stages of planning and booking the holiday.

After a two night stay in Lisbon we walked from Cascais to Sintra. The opportunities to explore the countryside and visit historic sites made the holiday enjoyable, relaxing and educational.

We have used them many times, in double figures, and benefit from a range of interesting active holidays. Staff are always well informed and friendly.

A great balance between walking along the flower-covered coast and among hills with great views, visiting fascinating castles and palaces, and peaceful hospitable places to stay. Good food and service every time.

Organises the whole trip flawlessly, but leaves you to get on and enjoy it yourselves. This was our fifteenth trip with them and they're always excellent.

Great choice of routes in Sintra with nice hotels. We enjoyed the scenery, the cultural aspects and the people. Well explained, we had perfectly designed routes and things to do at our leisure. With the transfer of our luggage it was a no worry and stress free hiking vacations. All was suggested with addresses well picked. Like a guided tour without the promiscuity of the guide and a group. Remarkably selected small hotels with top quality service and location. Great choice for independent minded people who like green, silence and considerate relation with hosts.

We were only annoyed that they could not access their selected travel insurance company. They did provide us with a list though and we could find one, but we had to pay a big ticket for the deal (we live in the USA), we think we could use some big companies discounts as you can have them in the UK.

This was a six-day walking holiday between four excellent hotels west of Lisbon. All breakfasts were provided, plus some evening meals and some picnics. The route took in coast, cliff-tops, woods and mountains with outstanding views, plus the chance to visit stunning castles and palaces.

The tour was well organised with extensive walking notes, maps and background information, enabling us to walk at our own pace without a guide and stop where and when we wanted. Booking was efficient; we had no complaints.

Our first self guided walking holiday. The detail in the notes and maps provided ( well before our departure to allow detailed study and reflection) was extremely reassuring and made walk very enjoyable.

InnTravel clearly experienced operators and all detail was sorted.accommodation provided was of generally high standard and accompanying notes about local restaurants when meals not provided was spot- on. Given the area we walked all natural highlights were included which was fantastic. I would preferentially go to InnTravel to book another walking holiday.
