Additional Information & Description
Sintra: Audio Guide App puts a self-guided visit to Portugal’s fairy-tale town on your smartphone, without a tour guide or an arranged meeting point. You set the pace and decide how to explore. The appeal is that independence: a visit shaped around your own interests rather than a guided group’s schedule.
15 highlights with local expert commentary
The app covers 15 points of interest in Sintra, including the remarkable Pena Palace and Park. Each location has up to two minutes of audio commentary, giving you short, focused introductions rather than lengthy recordings. Visuals and written descriptions accompany the audio, so you can look at images, read about a sight and listen to commentary by local experts. Together, these formats give you more than a map marker: they provide context for the places you choose to explore, with information you can read as well as hear.
Follow mapped routes or choose your own path
Offline, interactive digital maps and navigation help you find your way around Sintra. Follow the mapped routes for a defined course through the town, or explore as you please instead of sticking to a prescribed sequence. The routes provide direction without turning the visit into an escorted tour. This flexibility lets you use the guide as a route to follow or as a reference while pursuing your own path, with the map’s offline functionality available along the way.
Six audio languages and digital delivery
Audio guidance is available in English, French, German, Chinese, Spanish and Portuguese. Choose a language for listening to the commentary as you explore. Ticket delivery is instant, and smartphone tickets are supported. This is a digital audio-guide product, with the commentary, descriptions, visuals and navigation delivered through the app rather than by an accompanying guide.
What to bring and what admission covers
Bring earphones to use with your smartphone; they are not included. Admission tickets to the points of interest described in the app are also excluded. The guide provides information about those places, but it does not grant entry to them. That distinction applies to the sights covered by the commentary, including any you decide to enter during your visit.
