Easy to purchase the Lisboa Card, even simpler to use. Just tap in on the mode of transport you're using and on you get. It was also good for getting into attractions free, or the Catherdal with discount. Would definitely recommend if you plan on visiting lots of places when in Lisbon.

Ordering the tickets online and picking them up (Centro Interpretativo da História do Bacalhau, Praça do Comércio) was quick and easy. We had no problems with the Lisboa Card at any attractions or on local transport/trains to Cascais.

Contacting me proactively gave me confidence in their service. I appreciated that they were available and answered my question (were very few, but still).

The entire excursion was amazing. The palaces are beautiful, and I fulfilled my dream of visiting Regaleira, which fully met my expectations. We ended the day with Boca do Inferno at sunset, an incredible place! Cascais and its beautiful beach. The guides, Miguel and Derian, were excellent. All the information was very interesting, but most notable was their kindness and warmth. They made this experience unforgettable. The driver, Paulo, was highly skilled at navigating those narrow roads with expertise.

Enter the 12th-century Alcobaça Monastery with this entry ticket or a Lisbon Card to marvel at the Gothic architecture of the Alcobaça Monastery, built by the monks of the Order of Cistercians.

Visit the resting place of King Pedro I and Inês de Castro—their tombs are masterpieces of Gothic sculpture.

See the church, King’s Hall, Cloister of King Dinis or Cloister of Silence, Refectory, Kitchen Monk’s Hall, and more.

Upgrade your ticket by purchasing a Lisbon Card that provides you entry to over 39 attractions across a time period of 24, 48, or 72 hours.

I had a few issues with my bike. I'm in contact with Michael and am very satisfied. He is extremely nice, fast, and professional.

The first Gothic structure in Portugal

The Alcobaça Monastery is the first Portuguese Gothic structure, crucial in the 12th century's establishment of the Portuguese Kingdom. Monks of the Order of Cistercians began constructing the monastery in 1778. No trip to Portugal is complete without seeing Europe's finest example of Cistercian architecture.

Discover how the monks lived

Walk to the heart of the monastery, where the Cloister of King Dinis or Cloister of Silence lies. It gives access to the refectory, the primitive kitchen, the monks’ hall, the chapter house, the church, and the dormitory. Be mesmerized by the Church of Saint Mary of Alcobaça, the first Gothic Portuguese church. Admire the King’s Hall, where the cladding of the walls with 18th-century tile panels depicts the monastic foundation.

Be awed by the medieval artwork

Inside the monastery, marvel at the masterpieces of medieval statues, the tombs of D. Pedro I, and Inês de Castro, and get to see the statues of São Bento and São Bernardo.
