Publisher's Synopsis

It also gives information on the nearby beaches of Cascais and the Sintra coastline, amongst the finest in Portugal. Also included are full accommodation and restaurant listings for every pocket;tips on bargain markets and budget eateries and reviews of luxury hotels and meals worth splashing out on.
