I thought it was the original site when bought the tickets It was confusing since the email say "I must PRINT" which confused me since e-tickets don't require that, thankfully Portugal have beautiful people and told me that it was not necessary. Mediaeval but not too much like for require paper. About the booking, once you there (In the park) you need to walk a climb till the castle across the park, to me was okay for my mother complicated, so I recommend in advance to get that bus ticket to the castle, that's about 4.5 euros. To get to the park from the train station, you can take the bus 434, it's a kind of Hop on and hop off, the price is 10.96 per person.

Absolutely stunning day trip in Sintra! Pena Palace feels like stepping into a fairy tale, with incredible colors, architecture, and panoramic views. The surrounding park is peaceful and full of hidden paths and beautiful gardens. Quinta da Regaleira was equally magical — mysterious tunnels, enchanting gardens, and the famous Initiation Well made it unforgettable. The combo gives you the perfect mix of grand royal beauty and mystical atmosphere. Highly recommended!

We purchased the the tickets on my phone one evening at dinner. The process was simple and the tickets themselves were easy to access. We took the subway from Lisbon then hopped a bus to the the base of the castle road.it is a steep walk to get there but so worth it! The castle itself is beautiful and the grounds are spectacular. The trail from Penna to the Moorish castle is like walking in a poem. The peacocks even showed off for us! It is. Trip worth making.

My visit to Palácio da Pena was amazing from start to finish. The castle is absolutely stunning, full of color, history, and breathtaking views over Sintra. Everything was very well organized and the entry process was smooth and easy. Every corner felt like something out of a fairytale. Definitely a 10/10 experience that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Portugal! 😊

The Pena Palace looks like something out of a fairy tale: vibrant colors, romantic towers, and incredible views over the hills of Sintra. It was one of the residences of the Portuguese monarchy and uniquely blends architectural styles, ranging from Neo-Gothic to Arab and Manueline influences. More than just a palace, it is an unmissable visual and cultural experience in Portugal.

    Pena Palace was a lovely self-tour, incredible views and a sweet yummy restaurant. We walked to the Moorish Castle but it was challenging and exhausting. I wouldn't recommend the visit unless you are super-duper fit. That visit is all uphill+++ a and very windy.

    Sintra is a pretty town. The old town is situated high up, so you have to climb a bit of a hill to reach it. There are many nice restaurants in the old town serving good food, which will ensure you burn off enough calories to explore the park and Pena Castle. Getting there from the old town is a challenge. Waiting for a city bus at an intermediate stop often results in the bus not stopping at all. Fortunately, private bus operators are happy to stop and take you to the main entrance of the park for a slightly higher price than the bus ticket. The park itself is large, rather only shaped by nature not maintained by gardener. The walk from the entrance to the palace takes about 20-30 minutes. The route to the palace is well-marked, but the signs on the trees to the upper cross are difficult to find. To visit the palace, you'll have to wait quite a while in line. Fortunately, there's a café nearby where you can wait your turn. The palace is architecturally interesting and beautifully furnished. A tour takes about 30-45 minutes. If you're feeling energetic, it's worth to walk throug park to the lake and leaving the park there. However, we not reached finaly lake, we have returned and exited through the main exit again. This allowed us to board a bus after waiting in a long line and have a seat at the train station in Sintra to come back to Lizbon.
