Easy to get our tickets through Headout, fast delivery and good description. Choosing to visit Quinta da Regaleira first and then walk the path to Pena Palace was a good idea, but you need to set aside some time for that hike because there are many meters of elevation difference between the two places. We chose to go into the park at Pena first and walk for a while in it before using our booked time to Pena Palace. Both Regaleira and Pena Palace were definitely worth visiting, very exciting and beautiful architecture and the view from Pena is magnificent. After finishing the visit, we chose to walk back down to Sintra to take the train back to Lisbon. In summary, it was a very successful day but many spectacular views and interesting architecture.

Definitely worth it! If you go on foot, towards both places as I did, be prepared to have sore muscles the next day 😉 At the Moorish castle, it's a lot of clamping, a lot of stair climbing, but trust me, it's more than worth it! It is beautiful! At Quinta da Regaleira it is a lot of walking because it is big, also hilly, so definitely not just flat. The "well" where you would come out as reborn.... I expected a lot from it in the sense that you could walk down for a while quietly.... However, you "have to" keep walking, because if you stand still for too long to have a look or take good pictures, someone will call you to keep walking.... That's kind of a shame. However, it is beautiful there!

I know I heard from some that Pena Palace is a little "overrated" but I couldn't disagree more. Sure, it isn't as old as some of Portugals other landmarks and castles. But, the experience I had exploring and especially on top of the big balcony (which you just buy these tickets to enter the interior and therefore also the grand balcony) was a spiritual experience that almost brought tears to my eyes because of how amazing the view was from up top. A special place, which amazing views and amazing architecture. Also, fascinating was the valuables, personal items, and rooms staged from the times of the Kings who called this palace their home. Absolute must for any history buff.

    I had an amazing day visiting Pena Palace and the Moorish Castle. The weather was fantastic, which made exploring even more enjoyable. I had a timed entry for Pena Palace at 11 o’clock, and the whole process was incredibly well organised. The queues were managed efficiently, making the visit smooth and stress-free. The palace itself is breathtaking, with its vibrant colours, whimsical architecture, and stunning views. Even with a bit of mist and fog, the atmosphere was magical, adding a mysterious charm that made it feel like stepping into a fairytale. Every corner offered incredible photo opportunities and the attention to detail throughout the palace is remarkable. Afterward, I explored the Moorish Castle and walked all around its walls, soaking in the panoramic views of Sintra and the surrounding landscape. It was a fantastic experience, very well worth the money, and I would highly recommend both attractions to anyone visiting the area.

    The experience was wonderful! Both Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira were absolutely beautiful, with incredible architecture, gardens, and views. There were quite a lot of people, but the lines moved quickly and everything was well organized. Despite the crowds, it felt peaceful and magical — definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Sintra! Even if you take a tuk-tuk up to Pena Palace, there’s still quite a lot of walking and some steep uphill paths, so comfortable shoes are a must.

    We visited the Pena Palace & Park early in the morning, and it was the best decision — there was almost no queue, and we got in straight away! The palace itself is absolutely gorgeous, every room is full of stunning details and colors. The park around it is just as beautiful, perfect for a walk and amazing photos. Definitely worth buying the tickets — the experience was magical and totally unforgettable!

    The palacio da pena was great, we went early in the morning and were able to park in the parking lot upstairs next to the palace. The problem was with the quinta da regaleira, we had the entrance at 15:30 and it was impossible to park nearby. As we were with a small child we decided not to go in. Terrible parking, I don't understand how there is not a big one, even if it is paid.

    Sintra is one of the most incredible cities in the world and the palace of pena and the quinta da regaleira are unmissable, as well as landscapes that complement each other well. The experience with the purchase was simple, I just recommend paying attention to mobility in the city. There are a lot of breathtaking climbs, so I recommend a Bolt or a drop on/off bus to make it easier.
