We walked from Sintra town to the Pena Palace, it was a nice hike. The Pena Palace was beautiful, like a fairytale Palace. Then over to the Castle of the Moors, up a bunch ofcstairs and the view was fantastic. Actually views from both places were excellent. We enjoyed our excursion and head out made it very easy to book and follow directions. Thank you!

I really loved one of the openings into the fortress on the Atlantic side. The outer castle walls seem to be built right on top of the very steep rock below the old monastery portion. An opening on the inside of the walkway shows that the steep bedrock cliffs continue much higher inside portions of the fortress walls.

We had an excellent trip to Sintra and the Pena Palace with our guide, Andre. He was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the region, and specifically the Pena Palace site. He was very considerate and took good care of our personal comfort and safety on the trip. We highly recommend taking this tour!

I was looking for entrance tickets to the Belem tower and the Jeronimo monostry and the internet adviced you. A management of getting tickets was easy and perfect. Of course we had to be on queue but but it wasnot too long. It was wanderfool visiting those museums. Thank you for your help and I will advise you.

I had been to Portugal before, and the first time I walked up, got lost, and didn't make it, so I promised myself I'd come back to see it. It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life.

Great day walking thru the palace. Treat yourself to a Tuk Tuk up the hill. If you are looking for some excercise, walk down the hill to Sintra. It's still not easy.

Explore the 8th century military-style Moorish Castle, and 20th century fairytale Pena Palace with entry to both attractions in one convenient combo.

Climb up Moorish Castle's watch tower or admire the thought behind the Second Ring of Walls, designed to protect its people and harvest.

At Pena Palace, enjoy the eclectic mix of neo-Gothic, Manueline, and Islamic elements, then walk through the massive Pena Park dotted with statues, small ponds, and benches.

Upgrade your basic ticket with an audio guide packed with stories, legends, and secrets to enhance your visit to both UNESCO sites!

Absolutely fabulous sites. Color, height, history, and time. It's crowded, especially at Pena Palace. The Castle of the Moors is incredible.

Everything was perfect and very intuitive, from the moment of buying online before leaving on the trip right up to entering the attraction. Very useful.

It gets very crowded, so it's worth buying your ticket in advance. The garden is huge, there’s plenty to see, and it's well worth the price. It's relatively easy to reach on foot from downtown.

One of the highlights of my whole trip was the visit to Pena Palace. High up in the mountains, it really is a fairytale palace! I think the only downside is the communication conveyed. We are told to be there in ample time, we are told we can get a public transit bus from the station and they run every 10-15 minutes. What they don't tell you is that the public transit bus is not really that "public" as in they don't accept navegante cards nor do they sell single or return tickets and you must buy a whole day hop on hop off ticket. They also don't tell you that from the station it takes 40 minutes to get to the Park entrance. I nearly missed my timeslot despite giving it plenty of time. It would help others if these numbers are actually given with the directions. I thoroughly enjoyed my day though and think the bus was worth the €10.95.

Pena Palace was absolutely worth the visit! The ride uphill was a bit bumpy, but we made it through, and the views made every bit of the journey worthwhile. After a short hike to the palace, we were rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views. On one side, we could clearly see Sintra city, including the bridge and the statue, while on the other side, we could enjoy stunning views of the ocean. The clear weather made the experience even more special. Absolutely beautiful place, and I would highly recommend visiting it!
