Sintra Specials

It was a really nice experience if you like palace and history. We liked both places but I have a personal preference for Quinta.

An experience that makes your visits to wonderful places easier. No lines, no waiting, clear information, and attractions you can't miss on your visit to Portugal. Don't miss out!

Pena Palace in Lisbon was absolutely beautiful and full of colors. I really enjoyed my visit there and felt so happy walking around the palace and gardens. The views were amazing, and the atmosphere was magical. It was a wonderful experience and totally worth the visit. ✨🏰

The staff were so kind and willing to have a conversation with us. We booked a combined access ticket for both the park and the palace. On the day of our visit, we were driving a rental car with our baby from Porto and missed our timeslot due to traffic. We understood that the palace is quite strict with their scheduling and were happy to at least have had access to the park grounds so we went there directly. With it being winter, it was like a secret garden with few visitors and had moody fog enveloping the area. It was truly lovely and the dormant greenery showed us how spectacular the grounds were in any season, really. That said, we eventually wandered up to the palace itself and explained our situation to staff. They were willing to let us into the palace, despite the missed timeslot, which we were so grateful for. We also realized the context of that decision was based on it being a quieter season. Had this happened in high season there is just no way that we would have been let in so we appreciated the opportunity. So definitely be on time, build in an extra 30 minutes to get to the palace through the park, ie if your timeslot is 2, get there for 130 at the absolute latest. It was such a lovely visit and we can't wait to visit again in another season.

Everything is spectacular! The landscapes are paradisiacal, the monuments remind you of fairy tales! It was an unforgettable experience

Beautiful place, really good for pictures and to enjoy with friends and family. Also easy access with public transportation. Definitely a place you can't miss.

Pena Palace was so beautiful. Absolutely worth a visit. Even though the weather wasn't good, the palace looked like it came straight out of a fairytale. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The prices for the castle and the palace are quite expensive. 80€ for both will full access. You won't save too much buying online, but definitely you will save time for not waiting in the big queue. For the experience, it's worth it but when it comes about the small, important details, I will say is challenging. I will love to see a drink station at the bottom of the castle, some extra bins and extra info. From Sintra centre you will find the road sign to guide you to the castle. It was about 30 min walking on a very slippery, wet stairs, and the extra time for archiving the top of the castle hill. Get prepared with good shoes and comfortable, warm clothes. I love visiting the castles, this was the greatest so far. No time waiting for the castle entry if you brought the tickets already. So you can do the castle in the morning and get to the palace afternoon, depends on the booking. They won't let you get inside of the palace before the booking time. Meanwhile you can explore the gardens and all the surroundings . So many visitors during the Christmas time. Lots of tuck-tuck and taxi around. A little shop is located near the palace, also coffee &sandwich shop. Be well prepared in advance, definitely you can manage to see both in the same time. 🙂👌🏽💖
