Where to Park Rental Car While Visiting Sintra
 
Hello, this October after spending two days in Lisbon we will be driving to Sintra, our first stop on a two-week trip. We do not want to drive in Sintra. Does anyone know of a good/safe place to park our car and catch public transportation while we visit this city? Thank you.

Parking in Sintra is difficult most of the time. There's a large open parking lot off Ave Dr. Álvaro do Vasconcelos you may be able to use, but I don't know how safe it would be to leave anything in the car.

That's an idea. I was wondering if the train station at Sintra would be a good place to park? Or maybe we'll just leave it in Lisbon, take the train to Sintra and return to Lisbon for the car. Thank you for your help.

I would simply take the train to Sintra, around 20 minutes, and pick up the car when you're ready to leave Lisbon.

We have decided to train to Sintra and leave from Lisbon. Thank you for your assistance. Happy travels.
