The place is incredible, but the problem is the education and lack of information for tourists. They should come here to Brazil to take a course and see how tourism and service work.

The palace is beautiful. The architecture, furniture, paintings, and multiple artifacts from the periods was fascinating. The palace is a not to be missed place when visiting Portugal.

Once we got there, it was very confusing. Everyone was standing in line to get in so we got in line too. Our ticket was for 2:30pm. 2:30 passed and the line hadn't moved. So we took the initative to go to the front of the line and show the person our ticket and they let us in. If we didn't do this we would have stood there in the rain all day. I aksed the woman in the gift shop and she said just get in line. So that was no help.

We enjoyed Pena Palace, it was an interesting window into lifestyles in the 19th century. What was not enjoyable was the entry line. I'm not complaining about the number of people, but how they were managed. Where the lines started, there was no signage or indication of which line was for which time, people were standing in the wrong lines, people were cutting into the the lines, and at one point security move a line from one side of the road to the other. Clear signage before the start of the lines and maybe stanchions like they use in airports to define the lines would be a great help.
