Private Tour to Discover Rural Lisbon: Queluz, Mafra and Ericeira

About this activity

Step away from the city and discover a different side of Lisbon on this tour that blends history, local traditions, and coastal beauty at a relaxed, enjoyable pace.

We begin at the impressive National Palace of Mafra, one of Portugal’s grandest landmarks, where scale and detail come together in a truly striking way.

From there, we visit a small hand-crafted miniature village, created by a beloved local potter and sculptor as a tribute to rural life.

The day continues in Ericeira, a charming fishing town where everyday life still revolves around the sea. Here, you’ll have time to explore, soak in the atmosphere, and enjoy fresh seafood and regional flavours at your leisure.

We finish at the elegant National Palace of Queluz, often called the Portuguese Versailles, where rococo and neoclassical design reflect the refined lifestyle of Portugal’s former royal court.

Throughout the day, your guide will share stories, context, and local insights that bring each stop to life.
