Quinta da Regaleira

The staff were so kind and willing to have a conversation with us. We booked a combined access ticket for both the park and the palace. On the day of our visit, we were driving a rental car with our baby from Porto and missed our timeslot due to traffic. We understood that the palace is quite strict with their scheduling and were happy to at least have had access to the park grounds so we went there directly. With it being winter, it was like a secret garden with few visitors and had moody fog enveloping the area. It was truly lovely and the dormant greenery showed us how spectacular the grounds were in any season, really. That said, we eventually wandered up to the palace itself and explained our situation to staff. They were willing to let us into the palace, despite the missed timeslot, which we were so grateful for. We also realized the context of that decision was based on it being a quieter season. Had this happened in high season there is just no way that we would have been let in so we appreciated the opportunity. So definitely be on time, build in an extra 30 minutes to get to the palace through the park, ie if your timeslot is 2, get there for 130 at the absolute latest. It was such a lovely visit and we can't wait to visit again in another season.

Pena Palace was so beautiful. Absolutely worth a visit. Even though the weather wasn't good, the palace looked like it came straight out of a fairytale. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful architecture, breaktaking vistas of the city not to mention the exquisite tile work! Would highly recommend Headout .

Oh my, what a magical place to visit. I think I took aroubd 400photos during our visut. The Initiation Well was a real treat - it was stunning and I must say I was relieved to not have to climb the stairs to exit. We visited on a warm, sunny Winter day and the gardens were beautiful - we enjoyed the seperate gardens and stairways and the views are sublime. The Palace and Chalel were magical. We spent aroubd 4 hours and loved every moment.

Visiting Quinta da Regaleira was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my trip to Portugal. From the moment I stepped inside, it felt like entering a world where history, mystery, and imagination come together perfectly. Every corner of the estate tells a story—hidden tunnels, symbolic architecture, lush gardens, and the iconic Initiation Well that truly takes your breath away. The experience feels both timeless and surreal, as if the estate was designed to be explored rather than simply visited. It’s the kind of place that sparks curiosity at every turn and leaves you in awe long after you’ve walked out the gates.

Todo espectacular! Los paisajes son paradisíacos, los monumentos te recuerdan los cuentos de hadas! Era una experiencia inolvidable

Beautiful place, really good for pictures and to enjoy with friends and family. Also easy access with public transportation. Definitely a place you can't miss.

Has sido espectacular la experiencia. He tenido la gran suerte, que mi primer tour que hago, me ha tocado el mejor guia que puedas pedir. Tambien agradecer a su compañero guia, que aunque el contacto fue minimo fue muy agradable. Hablo de Ivan y Francisco. Jajjaja aunque mi guia el mejor, claro está. No solo es, que estuvo muy bien organizado, si no que se nota que le encanta su trabajo. La historia te la contaba con estusiamo ademas de toques de humor y escuchar lo que vamos viendo a nuestro paso, era como estar dentro de una pelicula. ¡ESPECTACULAR! GRACIAS POR ESTE DIA MARAVILLOSO
