Buying tickets ahead of time was very helpful. The grounds were beautiful! I felt like I could have spent so much more time exploring and enjoying the view. Definitely something everyone should visit if they visit Lisbon for the first time. A note, it was nicer to go at the end of the day when it wasn't as crowded. The crowds certainly made some of the narrow staircases more tricky.

Although there was a big crowd, there is also a lot of space. I especially enjoyed climbing up to the ramparts and the views. I did end up exiting when what I wanted to do was visit the museum and toilets. I appreciated the fact that I was able to re-enter at the entrance. Some signage could help at the exit.

I absolutely loved my experience at Castelo de São Jorge! The views were breathtaking, the atmosphere was incredible, and exploring the castle felt like stepping back in time. The staff were so lovely and welcoming, which made the visit even more enjoyable. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Lisbon!

    The views of Lisbon from São Jorge Castle were absolutely unmatched! I loved wandering the castle grounds, watching the beautiful peacocks roaming, and relaxing in the sun with a drink while overlooking the city. It was peaceful, scenic and honestly one of the highlights of my entire trip to Lisbon!

    What a great way to enter the Castle! The line to purchase tickets was so long. We walked past the line over to where you scan your tickets and were immediately in. So thankful I searched for online tickets. The Castle was beautiful. The views of the harbor breathtaking.

    So much to explore! Bigger than I anticipated and it has great access to climb different sections or go up/down stairs! The views from the top were the best from the whole trip!
  • Combine two unique panoramic views of Lisbon with one cost-saving ticket.

    Rua Augusta Arch

    The Rua Augusta Arch, which can be seen on the busy Praça do Comércio square, is a symbolic structure in Portugal's capital city. The earthquake that leveled the city in 1755 served as motivation for its growth in the 19th century, representing the city's will to rise again from the ashes of the disaster it endured. A monumental gateway built in the neoclassical style, it has a statue of the goddess of victory, winged figures, and reliefs depicting scenes from the city's reconstruction. Pass under the arch and take in the sights of Praça do Comércio and the city below. This spot provides a perfect backdrop to photograph the city and river.

    St. George’s Castle

    The impacts of the Visigoths and the Moors can still be seen today on Lisbon’s highest hill. St. George's Castle was named after England's patron saint more than two centuries after it was built, following the Anglo-Portuguese Treaty of 1373. Interactive touch screens inside explain the background of the region around the castle hill. With its thick walls and terraces covered by pine trees, this castle has become the city's most distinctive sight.

    There are a total of ten towers, and you can climb them all! Moorish antiquities like coins, pottery, and tiles were discovered during excavations in the region around the castle and are currently on display there. Peacocks, which can be found in the gardens surrounding the towers, never fail to amaze visitors with their brilliant plumage.
