Quinta da Regaleira was such a magical experience! I went on my own and it did not disappoint. The place is absolutely beautiful—full of mystery, charm, and stunning views. It felt like stepping into a fairytale!

Very pleasant visit, even if it's getting a bit crowded. BEMOL: It's more expensive to buy the ticket on this platform than directly on site. Audioguides are abnormally expensive, and should be part of the basic price.

Easy to get through the gates at 10am. The place is stunning and clearly signed. There is so much history and beauty beyond the gate

Thanks to the e-ticket for 11am, we didn't have to queue and were able to go straight in when we arrived shortly after 11am.

At the time of arrival, we were able to enter with our tickets with ease. We showed up 45 minutes early so we had to wait in a lineup of others who were also early. They control the amount if traffic entering in this way which was appreciated because it was very very busy. The gardens and the palace themselves are stunning. We waited about 30 minutes in line to see the initiation well, but it was so worth it. We both really enjoyed learning about the property and the man who built it via the interactive video and historical timelines that they have on display in one of the buildings
