Fun day, but some things to be aware of - We did a full day jeep tour for Sintra’s historical sights. It was a nice tour to see the beauty of Sintra! I have a couple of thoughts though: 1) the jeep tour pictures advertise an open top jeep. Due to local regulations, they jeeps must remain covered now. It’s still open air, but the top of the jeep is covered. 2) the tour doesn’t get front of the line access to any of the monuments. We have to stand in line just like everyone else doing tours and enter through the same way. They do try to take us to the less crowded ticket machines, but no front of the line access. 3) I wish they would tell us to buy entrance tickets beforehand online to save the group time. We probably spent an 45 min-1 hr for the whole day waiting in line for tickets or to enter the sights. Overall it was fun and I loved seeing Sintra though and felt like Wonder Van did a great job.
