The experience was outstanding regarding the quinta da Regaleira, beautiful the garden part all to discover with the caves as icing on the cake is beautiful fairy tale atmosphere. On the other hand, less beautiful was the visit of the Pena Palace, the palace very nice to photograph in the outside part but how the visit inside is organized I did not like it: it is a perennial and endless line to see two rooms and you do not see them well because you have to keep walking as there are so many people.

Everything was fantastic and fast. We got rained on a bit wn the queue to get in but all very well organized. I'm glad we went. I don't know how long it takes from the parking lot to the castle entrance.

The palace was amazing with such a great view. The booking on Headout was fast and easy and we had the electronic tickets on our phones instead of lining up to get tickets at the palace.

The Palace was amazing! We loved seeing inside the different rooms and especially loved the garden. All of the ticketing worked well.
