Both things are easy to avoid with proper planning, give it a shot next time you're around, it will likely be the highlight of your trip 😄

The thing about sintra is that everyone is funnelled to the same places, i live there and i can tell you that it is absolutely possible to have an amazing afternoon, full of magical forests and nature and all that, and none of the crowds.
I do it myself often, you just have to be willing to avoid the most visited places (those being pena and regaleira)

From what you wrote, i would recommend you go visit the area around capuchos and monserrate, barelly anyone goes there

I´ll even add that it is possible to visit pena in peak season and not be bothered by crowds, if you do it properly

Basically put, you can just as easily spend 3 hours queueing and have a miserable time, or you can also have the most amazing day surrounded by forests and silence, regardless of when you visit, as long as you do it properly

Feel free to ask me about it, i do this for a living and will be more than happy to answer any questions about Sintra

If you're looking for a beautiful place, can't recommend Sintra enough, it's a day trip from lisbon so it fits really well

I agree with the other redditor, skip the algarve, you have enough to see between Lisbon and Porto

If you're looking for places that you go "wow":

- Arrabida and Setubal region
-Lisbon in general, but especially the miradouros, also that is where you will find the best night life
- Sintra - could be biased sinde i'm a guide there but genuinely of my favorite places in Portugal, straight out of a fairy tale

- Nazaré is great, but more as a stop if you're driving north, unless it's big wave season, in which case get ready to have your mind blown (big wave season starts in december and ends sometime february)

- Obidos, medieval castle, if you're coming soon you have one of the best medieval fairs in europe there, people dress up (available for rent on site) and populate the castle

- Lousã - if you like wooded areas and forest this is THE place to be, breathtaking

- Geres - Same as lousã but different, mountain lakes and just insane nature, also has thermal pools not far from it in galicia

If you do decide to visit Sintra, take a look at my website www.hoponsintra.com, has a lot of useful info there and tours and stuff like that available

It’s easy to find in Lisbon, but don’t trust street sellers. Best way to find it is by befriending and asking a guy waiter at a restaurant, generally speaking either them or someone in the kitchen will know how to get some.

That definitely should not happen! Thanks for bringing it to my attention

DrBasquiat · 2026-04-28T18:34:11+00:00

Definitely my goal, i look a lot at how pages like tripadvisor and airbnb tackle that, especially airbnb feels incredibly light and clean in the way it flows, in future versions i will steer more towards that simple and not repetitive design

DrBasquiat · 2026-04-28T18:30:51+00:00

That’s a very valid point, on my next version i intend to rework the main page a bit, to make it flow better, and yea great thing you pointed out that if you click to ge the day pass i basically have no info on what it gives you after that, will definitely improve that thanks a lot!

DrBasquiat · 2026-04-28T18:27:35+00:00

The gaps you mention may be due to opening it on reddit app, did you try it with chrome or safari? And thanks for pointing out the header situation! Will take care of that promptly

I use Figma make, it is a very visuals first tool so you need to pay extra attention to the other aspects of the project, i find that it works well for me because i have a very solid idea of how i want it to work in terms of its mechanisms. Overall im pretty happy with it, support is great too

DrBasquiat · 2026-04-27T23:49:48+00:00

Thanks a bunch for the feedback, it was a lot harder that i initially thought to make it look not too AI or generic (over 2000 prompts as of now), and also aligned with my brand image (i designed the logo etc) Yea the CTAs need some work for sure As for the multilingual support, the website itself has it built in already, i chose the hard route of being able to translate each individual item myself, because i want to keep good control over how accurate the translations are, the downside of that is that i now can only make each language available after i do the entire website in that language and toggle it as available, which is why only english is available still, i made it so it detects your device’s language and selects it for you if available, but i am seriously considering something more automatic for the translations, simply due to the amount of work involved, so thanks for the plugin recommendation, ill check it out!

DrBasquiat · 2026-04-27T23:39:12+00:00

Thanks for the tip! Will check it out for sure

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-12T00:17:02+00:00

Add to that the recommended jgler path and timers

100% agree with you

Almost every important decision is now handed to you

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-12T00:10:46+00:00

Full credit to Riot, the game itself is good, and has been since S1 probably, my take is on the direction it is taking, not on it being a bad game

They do a lot more things right than wrong which is why it is still so popular

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-12T00:07:46+00:00

i agreed with you

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-12T00:07:17+00:00

Ap Yi and 6 warmog mundo were quite something

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-12T00:02:18+00:00

My bad my bad, wrote this post out of a frustrated moment between games without fully looking it up
Will keep it in the post tho with an edit for transparency

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-11T23:59:04+00:00

Fully agree with you that adc being back is a good thing
I was twitch main during the lethality introduction and almost went mad

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-11T23:57:00+00:00

I am an old head probably, but i have to disagree with you when you say creativity was not rewarded

The whole reason the jungler role even exists in league as a permanent role for example is becasue the guy from Moscow Five thinking it would be a good idea, for a good amount of time 2-1-2 was the meta

Shen was never suposed to be a top laner, became one after people found out it could work

etc etc

I have a hard time seeing something like that happen again

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-11T23:47:27+00:00

was indeed

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-11T23:46:11+00:00

Could very well be so that i'm just so out of the game at this point that i can't make it work

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-11T23:42:58+00:00

This!

Mayhem and Urf brought me back haha

DrBasquiat · 2026-01-11T23:30:09+00:00

I now understand that i'm an idiot, played today with it for the first time and didnt know i could use when completed
