The space is just indescribable, at least in a way to do it justice. Stunning things to see at every turn. A glorious place to visit! No picture can do it justice. We loved exploring the caves and the well the most but so much more than that to do.

We were blown away by the Quinta da Regaleira. We spent 2 hours at the site. Enjoyed walking through the tunnel. The grounds were extensive with a lot to see.Jean-guy

The site was a magical place and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Spent about 3.5 hours exploring. Was a bit disappointed that the palace section was only 1 floor. I saw lots of map postings but I didn't see any "you are here" markers. Of course it was crowded but everyone was happy. I didn't see one person in a foul mood.Susana

Quick and easy purchase. There was a queue at the entrance, which took about 30 minutes, and at some attractions too. You should allow more time for your visit. Very beautiful place!

We absolutely loved Quinta Da Regaleria! The castle and grounds were beautiful and fun to explore. We met Faisal at a meeting point just outside the castle. He was awesome! He made sure we had our tickets and then escorted us to the entrance making certain we all got in. Faisal provided a very helpful map and step by step recommendations to see everything. You won't be disappointed getting your tickets here!
