The entire excursion was amazing. The palaces are beautiful, and I fulfilled my dream of visiting Regaleira, which fully met my expectations. We ended the day with Boca do Inferno at sunset, an incredible place! Cascais and its beautiful beach. The guides, Miguel and Derian, were excellent. All the information was very interesting, but most notable was their kindness and warmth. They made this experience unforgettable. The driver, Paulo, was highly skilled at navigating those narrow roads with expertise.

Everything was very efficient, both the Lisboa Card and the tickets purchased for the Pena Palace. We had to wait in lines, but they moved quite quickly anyway.

It was easy to get the physical card. Unfortunately we could not book Belem tower with our card. There were no Lisboa card tickets available for 72 hours and we had 48 hour pass. We bought directly from them since it was a must see for us. The metro was very easy to use with the card. Because we had the card, we saw places we would not have necessarily paid to see but when it's free... Lisbon cathedral was two euros discounted because of the card which was unexpected and nice. Sao Jorge we were able to skip a huge line because of the card.

The card is easy to collect, but it's a shame that you can't print the vouchers. It would avoid stress when you don't have a signal.

Having access to public transportation at any time was very helpful, Some attractions even had a separate line, so you didn't have to wait as long

The first Gothic structure in Portugal

The Alcobaça Monastery is the first Portuguese Gothic structure, crucial in the 12th century's establishment of the Portuguese Kingdom. Monks of the Order of Cistercians began constructing the monastery in 1778. No trip to Portugal is complete without seeing Europe's finest example of Cistercian architecture.

Discover how the monks lived

Walk to the heart of the monastery, where the Cloister of King Dinis or Cloister of Silence lies. It gives access to the refectory, the primitive kitchen, the monks’ hall, the chapter house, the church, and the dormitory. Be mesmerized by the Church of Saint Mary of Alcobaça, the first Gothic Portuguese church. Admire the King’s Hall, where the cladding of the walls with 18th-century tile panels depicts the monastic foundation.

Be awed by the medieval artwork

Inside the monastery, marvel at the masterpieces of medieval statues, the tombs of D. Pedro I, and Inês de Castro, and get to see the statues of São Bento and São Bernardo.

Purchase the Lisbon Card and tour the city hassle-free as you gain access to over 39 different attractions with unlimited travel on city transport.
