Über diese Aktivität

This private experience uncovers the treasures of Portugal’s Arrábida region, where lush green hills meet the deep blue waters of the Atlantic. Your journey begins as you travel past Setúbal, a lively coastal area known for its rich maritime heritage. From there, you ascend into the spectacular Arrábida Natural Park, a protected sanctuary of limestone cliffs, Mediterranean flora, and breathtaking ocean panoramas. Nestled high in the hills stands the Convent of Our Lady of Arrábida, a serene 16th-century Franciscan retreat built in total harmony with nature. Enjoy magnificent coastal landscapes as you head to Sesimbra, a picturesque fishing village with colorful boats, historic streets, and charming seaside atmosphere. After free time for a relaxing lunch by the sea, the journey continues along the park’s scenic mountain roads. To complete this unforgettable day, we include a handpicked stop at a unique hidden gem, adding an extra touch of charm and discovery to your journey.

    3. Between the blue of the Atlantic and the green of the mountains, the Arrabida Convent seems suspended between heaven and earth. Founded in the 16th century by a friar who chose to live here in solitude and prayer, the convent was carved out of the rock itself, embraced by nature. Legend has it that a divine light guided him to the place - and that it has since become a haven of peace. The silence is almost sacred, the air smells of pine and sea air, and the view seems endless. Later, the Duke of Aveiro had the New Convent built, expanding the space without robbing it of its soul. Today, Arrabida remains a unique place: serene, pure and inspiring - where time slows down and nature speaks softly, but says it all.

      Note: Visits to the interior are only possible on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

    4. Sesimbra lives between the sea and the mountains, with an authenticity that you feel as soon as you arrive. The blue of the Atlantic dominates the landscape, and high up, Sesimbra Castle has watched over the town for almost a thousand years - the only Portuguese medieval castle with a direct view of the sea. Tradition has it that during the reconquest, a miraculous apparition protected the inhabitants, making this place sacred ever since. In the streets, the smell of the sea mixes with the sound of seagulls and the laughter of fishermen who continue to go out at dawn, just like their ancestors. Sesimbra is made up of strength and calm, of stories and light - a town with a soul, where the sea dictates the rhythm and time always seems right.

      On this route, we have carefully included a surprise place chosen by us for this day. The trip ends, but a little piece of it remains to be taken away - made up of memories and Portugal.

    5. Arrábida Natural Park

      Arrabida is that piece of paradise that seems to have been painted by hand: the sea in shades of turquoise, the mountains covered in green and the sun casting golden reflections on the hillsides. Every bend in the road reveals a new landscape - and it's impossible not to stop and admire it. This natural park is home to secret beaches, trails with dreamy views and a rare tranquillity that is hard to find so close to Lisbon. Here, the weather slows down, the air seems cleaner and life takes on a different rhythm. It's the perfect destination for those who like authentic nature, unexpected dives and that good feeling of freedom that only the sea and the mountains together can give.
