Visiting the Pena palace and Quinta da Regaleria was a one of a kind experience. The colors of the palace and the surrounding gardens made me think like I was in Alice in Wonderland. The gardens were mesmerizing we had fun exploring them. Talking abour Quinta da Regaleria will never be enough, to express what we experienced. So mysterious, a journey of the soul and very mystical. It was like nothing we had seen before. Overall it was a wonderful day and ironically the last day in Portugal for us. Couldn't recommend enough for everyone that goes to Portugal to visit these places, it is a MUST!!

Our trip started off with a huge 36 hour flight delay, but our next day in Sintra was perfect. The weather cooperated and the staff was completely helpful. Our private walk through of the royal family living and sleeping areas was exceptional. Our guide was well versed in the history and spent extra time to answer all of our questions. The rest of the castle was equally beautiful due to careful restoration. A definite must see if you are in the Lisbon area.

We took a Bolt that dropped us off a 10-minute walk away because they aren't allowed to pass through. It's uphill. As for the Palace, its lush, wooded surroundings stand out, as well as structures like the various towers, fountains, and grottoes. Highly recommended. Perhaps the Palace is more attractive on the outside than on the inside. You can easily do this activity in two hours.

Quinta da Regaleira was outstanding. Although the entrance was very busy we moved quickly through the line and actually entered 15 mins early. The audio guide was helpful in providing direction, the site is huge and providing insights for those Knights Templar symbols that are all over the site and the town of Sintra.

The site is superb and the ticket purchase and admission are well organized. I suggest that the organizers provide, if they can, a refreshment point and water bottle purchase spot before the entrance, because there is nothing around. Otherwise, the small snack bar inside is very good too, but you have to go through the entrance.

Quinta da Regaleira Was amazing. We had timed tickets that worked perfectly. It is a magical place and a must visit if you are in Portugal. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was also not very crowded. The coffee shop had great food and was not expensive. You could spend hours there.

Get two audio-guided Sintra adventures in one ticket, from Regaleira's wells and tunnels to Monserrate's ornate rooms and gardens.

Spiral down Regaleira's Initiation Well, pass through the Portal of the Guardians, and follow underground passages into grottoes and hidden spaces.

Look beyond the famous well for the Unfinished Well, Chapel of the Holy Trinity, lakes, towers, and symbols tucked across the estate.

Skip the regular queue at Monserrate and explore standout spaces including the Central Gallery, Music Room, Library, and Dining Room.

Take the exploration outdoors through Fern Valley, Beckford's Waterfall, the Japanese Garden, Rose Garden, and botanical collections.

Arrival was complicated because I went by car and parking was difficult, so the day didn't start off well. Getting to the Quinta using directions from people in the town of Sintra went very well, because there are no signs at all. Inside the Quinta, it's absolute chaos because even though they give you a map, there is no signage for the sites, only for the well, the tower, and little else. In fact, I didn't know where the entrance was underneath the unfinished well, and I couldn't even find the Grotto of the Virgin—just like several other Spaniards and Latin Americans we spoke to. I had rented an audio guide, which kept crashing every few minutes and had to be restarted, so it worked very poorly. The well was very interesting (what I was able to hear on the audio guide before it crashed), but the staff did nothing but rush us through, so we couldn't take a photo in peace. The palace is very beautiful inside. A lot of things can be improved.

The Pena Palace pre booking tickets helped get in line faster since the tickets were sold out the day we were there. Besides the entry tickets there are other tickets needed so please keep in mind. Shuttle tickets to get inside and outside are recommended since it was 100degrees F the day we visited. Quinta R was too tough, the shuttles were late and the walk was hot and long

Perhaps the Palace is more attractive on the outside than on the inside. You can easily do this activity in two hours.

One minute you're spiralling underground into Regaleira's famous well. The next, you're standing beneath Monserrate's elaborate arches. This combo gives you two very different reasons to spend longer in Sintra.

Getting started

Visit the two estates independently and present your ticket at each entrance. At Quinta da Regaleira, use the activation link to unlock your audio tour, then download the text, narration, and maps for offline use. At Monserrate, use your fast-track entry to bypass the regular ticket queue and select your audio guide language before heading in.

What to expect

Quinta da Regaleira

Forget the usual palace routine, and Regaleira is built for exploring. The estate was designed with wells, grottoes, tunnels, towers, and symbolic structures hidden throughout the grounds. Keep following the paths and something interesting keeps turning up.

Features:

Descend the Initiation Well: Take the famous spiral staircase down through the well's nine levels, then follow the underground route below. It's easily Regaleira's most photographed sight, and seeing it from inside is the whole point.

Go through the Portal of the Guardians: Look for the dramatic stone structure beside the lake, guarded by mythological figures. From here, you can access one of the estate's underground passages and continue the exploration below ground.

Find the Unfinished Well: Don't stop after the Initiation Well. This second well is rougher and less polished, with a staircase winding down through its stone walls, another excellent reason to keep looking beyond the obvious.

Explore the palace and chapel: Step inside the main palace and visit the nearby Chapel of the Holy Trinity, where elaborate carvings and decorative details continue the estate's love affair with symbolism.

Monserrate Palace & Park

Monserrate is where the architecture gets seriously theatrical. Ornate arches, decorative plasterwork, and light-filled spaces make the palace worth slowing down for—but don't make the mistake of leaving once you've seen the interiors. Some of the estate's best discoveries are waiting outside.

Features:

Walk through the Central Gallery: Step into one of the palace's most striking spaces, where a sequence of elaborate arches creates the distinctive look Monserrate is known for. Definitely look up.

Stop by the Music Room and Library: Explore rooms designed for entertaining and relaxing, including the Music Room, known for its acoustics, and the Library, one of the palace's more intimate spaces.

Wander into Fern Valley: Leave the palace and head into a lush valley filled with tree ferns and winding paths. The scenery changes fast here, making it feel very different from the formal palace grounds.

Explore the Japanese and Rose Gardens: Make time for the Japanese Garden, with its carefully arranged landscape, and the Rose Garden, where another completely different side of Monserrate's park unfolds.
