Dear customer:
We’d like to inform that our company includes the Regular or the Fast Track Tickets (according your choice) to visit the Pena Palace in order to provide total convenience. However, any change on the dates, the customer will assume the value of the ticket for the new chosen date. In the high season and for reservation with few weeks in advance it is possible that there are no regular tickets available and as such the skip the line tickets will be suggested (highly recommended). The Palace works with a new system (slot schedule system) that with a limited number of regular tickets every half hour (ex: 09h30, 10h00).
- Quinta da Regaleira - Very close to the historic centre of Sintra is Quinta Regaleira, one of the town’s most enigmatic sights.
The Palace of Quinta da Regaleira was built in the early 20th century by the millionaire António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (1848-1920), who managed to realise one of his dreams here with the help of the scenographic architect Luigi Manini (1848-1936). Surrounded by lush green vegetation, the Palácio da Regaleira is a fascinating discovery. A special mention is reserved for the Capela da SantÃssima Trindade (Chapel of the Holy Trinity), where visitors can descend via a spiral staircase into the crypt to discover the monumental initiation well that, at the bottom, leads via a grotto to a surprising lake hidden in the middle of the gardens.
Special note:
- According to National Palace of Pena slot schedule system (half an hour entrances) and being the main activity, the visit to Regaleira may need be adjusted or cancelled. Our guide could offer you alternatives according with it.
- Sintra - After visiting the chosen palace or monument, you will have free time to discover the historic center of Sintra. Explore the narrow streets and don’t forget to try the famous queijadas and pillows.
Special notes (Summer 2024):
Due to the new traffic rules in Sintra and the high season in Pena Palace, our main goal will be providing quality on this half day tour. For this reason, we will visit Pena Palace (3h) and after that, we recommend the visit to Regaleira Gardens (1h) OR the historic center (1h). If the client wants to do the 3 stops , our guide should give you less minutes in each place, which in our perspective is not good for our clients.
