Sintra: Hop-on Hop-off Bus to Castles & Palaces

About this experience

The Sintra hop-on hop-off bus is a 24-hour public transport ticket covering bus lines 434 and 435, giving visitors a flexible way to reach the castles, palaces, and gardens spread across the hills above Lisbon. Sintra's UNESCO-listed cultural landscape sits roughly 30 kilometres north-west of the capital, and the terrain between its main sights makes a hop-on hop-off format a practical choice over walking. Route 434 runs a circular loop from Sintra Station up to the Moorish Castle and Pena Palace, stopping at São Pedro de Sintra and Sintra Vila along the way. Route 435 heads in the opposite direction from Sintra Station, serving Quinta da Regaleira, Seteais Palace, Monserrate Palace, Colares, and Montes Santos, also passing through São Pedro de Sintra and Sintra Vila. Tickets cover unlimited boardings on both lines for 24 hours and the service is wheelchair accessible. Entrance fees to individual monuments are not included and must be purchased separately at each site.
