We really enjoyed our visit to the Château des Maures, mainly because of the exceptional views it offers of Sintra, the surrounding forest, and the Pena Palace. For those views alone, the climb is well worth the effort (not to be underestimated, though I believe there’s also a bus that can take you up). Don’t expect to visit a furnished or perfectly preserved castle: it consists primarily of ruins and medieval fortifications. However, the ramparts are remarkably well-preserved and allow you to walk through much of the site while enjoying spectacular views. If you want to see it all, plan for plenty of time and be prepared for a physical hike. We also appreciated the historical aspect of the site, founded during the Muslim occupation of the Iberian Peninsula and later restored in the 19th century under the impetus of King Ferdinand II, as part of the Romantic rediscovery of Portuguese heritage. The atmosphere is very pleasant, surrounded by nature, with numerous trails and green spaces. An ideal complement to a visit to the Pena Palace, offering a deeper understanding of Sintra’s history while enjoying magnificent scenery.

At Quinta da Regaleira, it was obviously the Initiation Well—we’d never seen anything like it before—but also the manor house. I thought it was fantastic. My favorite part was the mosaic floor; I could have stared at it forever. So beautiful! I loved the entire country house; everything was put together with such taste and was so unique. And the garden—everything was just right, impressive! I highly recommend visiting this place!

Pure magic! The amazing views from the castle walls are stunning, and the grounds at Quinta da Regaleira are mystical and pristine. Super clean environment and a must-visit if you're in Sintra! What impressed me the most was how spotless and well-maintained the environment was at both sites despite the crowds.

Both castles are absolutely stunning and quite close to each other. Quinta de Regaleira will transport you to a magical world, and its gardens are incredible. I would still recommend taking transportation to the Castle of the Moors unless you really enjoy hiking.

One of the most beautiful and magical places I've ever visited. Stunning buildings and gardens. The palace is absolutely beautiful, and the gardens are like something out of a fairy tale. You must buy your ticket online; otherwise, you won't be able to enter. I highly recommend a visit.

Le Château des Maures est une visite que nous avons beaucoup appréciée, principalement pour les panoramas exceptionnels qu'il offre sur Sintra, la forêt environnante et le Palais de Pena. Rien que pour ces points de vue, la montée vaut largement l'effort (à ne pas sous-estimer, quoi que je pense qu'il y a aussi un bus pour vous déposer). Il ne faut pas s'attendre à visiter un château meublé ou parfaitement conservé : il s'agit avant tout de vestiges et de fortifications médiévales. Cependant, les remparts sont remarquablement mis en valeur et permettent de se promener sur une grande partie du site tout en profitant de vues spectaculaires. Si vous voulez tous les faire : prévoir du temps et de la disponibilité physique. Nous avons également apprécié l'aspect historique du lieu, fondé à l'époque de l'occupation musulmane de la péninsule Ibérique puis restauré au XIXe siècle sous l'impulsion du roi Ferdinand II, dans le cadre de la redécouverte romantique du patrimoine portugais. L'ambiance est très agréable, au cœur de la nature, avec de nombreux sentiers et espaces verts. Une visite complémentaire idéale au Palais de Pena, qui permet de mieux comprendre l'histoire de Sintra tout en profitant de paysages magnifiques.

Bij Quinta da Regaleira was dat uiteraard de initiation well, zoiets hadden we niet eerder gezien, maar daarnaast ook het landhuis. Dat vond ik fantastisch. Het allermooist vond ik de mozaieken vloer, daar kon ik naar blijven kijken. Zo prachtig! Het hele landhuis vond ik geweldig, alles was met zoveel smaak en zo bijzonder samengesteld. Daarnaast de tuin, alles klopte, indrukwekkend! Een absolute aanrader hiernaar toe te gaan!

Les deux châteaux sont absolument magnifiques et plutôt proches l'un de l'autre. Quinta de regaleira vous transportera dans un monde magique et ses jardins sont incroyables. Je recommande tout de même de prendre un transport pour la chateau des maures à moins que vous aimez beaucoup les randonnées.

Der Park des Pena Palace und die Quinta da Regaleira waren äußerst sehenswert und man konnte sich stundenlang dort aufhalten. Beides verdient volle Punktzahl. Nur der Pena Palast selbst ist eine schreckliche Durchschieberei. Die Aussicht vom Pena Palast ist allerdings schön.
