Cascais
PREFERENCE EVENTS ORGANISES YOUR INCENTIVE TRIPS AND COMPANY SEMINARS IN CASCAIS, PORTUGAL.
Situated on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, 30 kilometres west of Lisbon and 33 km from the airport, Cascais, a traditional fishing village, is regarded as the ‘Portuguese Riviera’. The place was ‘launched’ by King Louis I, who chose the bay as a summer resort at the end of the 19th century, followed by wealthy Portuguese families who built their villas and mansions here. After the Second World War, the last King of Italy, Umberto II, chose the Portuguese resort as his land of exile and had a magnificent villa built here, now transformed into a luxury hotel dedicated to hosting prestigious seminars in Cascais for VIP groups.
An elegant seaside resort at the gateway to Lisbon, it offers visitors pedestrianised streets, charming hotels and restaurants, and yachts along the beach that will delight the participants in your corporate trip to Cascais.
The fine sandy beaches start at the mouth of the Tagus, all the way to Cascais. A 10 km cycle path along the coast links Cascais to the surfing beach of Guincho, offering the spectacle of fortifications, lighthouses and cliffs. This large sandy beach is ideal for picnics and original team-building activities.
Just a few kilometres away, the charming village of Sintra and its marvellous Pena Palace make a great excursion by quad or 4×4, taking in some of the off-road mountain roads.
Cascais is the ideal location for a reward trip or a seminar by the sea, and can be used to organise corporate events while taking advantage of its proximity to Lisbon for day trips or incentive activities, or evenings out in the trendy restaurants of the docklands district.
Cascais’ hotel capacity means that large groups, seminars or general meetings can be accommodated right on the water. The participants in your seminar, convention or management committee meeting in Cascais will appreciate the sunny climate and the holiday atmosphere, away from the hustle and bustle of Lisbon but still within easy reach.
