Walking Tours in Lisbon

It could have been perfect if we hadn't felt like we were disturbing the people who work there. They barely said hello to us, barely looked at us; clearly, their conversation was more interesting... too bad.

Oh my, what a magical place to visit. I think I took aroubd 400photos during our visut. The Initiation Well was a real treat - it was stunning and I must say I was relieved to not have to climb the stairs to exit. We visited on a warm, sunny Winter day and the gardens were beautiful - we enjoyed the seperate gardens and stairways and the views are sublime. The Palace and Chalel were magical. We spent aroubd 4 hours and loved every moment.

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.

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.

I loved the history and the engagement of our guide. She was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of great tips on our trip!

Carla was amazing! We learned a lot about history and saw the not to miss views from the castle. Recommend 💯 and thought she was such a good guide!
