The day went really well. I had planned my schedule so that I could easily get between the Palacio da Pena (10:30 a.m. admission) and the Quinta da Regaleira (3:30 p.m., though 3:00 p.m. would have been fine too). There were no long waits—just a little patience due to the large crowds during a time of year when there are typically more tourists. Security checks were quick and efficient, and the staff was very kind. Once inside, there’s complete freedom of movement. The castles, the park, and the gardens are wonderful, and the town of Sintra is also very welcoming. Perhaps, for families, a larger discount on the total ticket price could be considered, and audio guides in additional languages—beyond those already available—could be provided. Given the large number of Italians, for example, it might be worth adding Italian to the language options. In any case, the visit is well worth it.

Visiting the Pena Palace and Park, as well as the Quinta da Regaleira, was one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal. The Pena Palace is impressive even from a distance, with its vibrant colors and extraordinary architecture. From the top, you have a beautiful view of Sintra and the surrounding area. The adjoining park is very large, well-maintained, and perfect for leisurely walks through nature. We were particularly captivated by the mysterious atmosphere of the Quinta da Regaleira. The underground tunnels, hidden paths, and the famous Initiation Fountain make this place truly unique. There are interesting details to discover everywhere, making you feel almost as if you’re in a fairy tale. Both attractions are definitely worth seeing and offer a great blend of history, architecture, and nature. Anyone visiting Sintra should definitely not miss these places.

To say that Pena Palace & the Moorish Castle are amazing is not hyperbolic. They'll take your breath away (perhaps literally)! If you are in shape, you can easily manage to see both in a single outing. You must have a ticket for both. Just be aware that while you can enter the Moorish site anytime they're open, you will have a specific entry time for Pena. Tickets are non-refundable & cannot be changed. I recommend you buy all three tickets (both plus bus) in advance to ensure you don't spend a lot of time waiting. You can walk from one entrance to the other. Be prepared for a lot of steep walking at both sites. Wear sneakers. Heels, slip-ons, & flip-flops are not safe footwear. If you wear sandals, choose a rugged style. There are neither handrails nor guard rails at either historic place. All that said, both sites are definitely worth the effort!

My experience was incredible; thanks to all the guidance from Headout, I was able to get organized and make my way to Pena National Park as smoothly as possible. As soon as we arrived, everything went very quickly and easily because we already had our tickets. The palaces were not only beautiful but also made me reflect deeply on the origins of their construction and the decorative style, given the limitations of that era. The audio guide helped us understand and appreciate every detail, which made the experience even better. I’m very satisfied; I’ll return with memories rich in experiences and photographs.

The castles Pena and quinta da regaleira were amazing to visit. Pena is a bit more focussed on just the castle. Quinta da regaleira is a whole experience with a beautiful garden to get lost in. It is worth it to walk from train station Cintra towards Pena, amazing walk of like 35min. You can easily walk to Regaleira from Pena as well. And if you dont feel like it the carts pendeling over there are pretty cheap. Anyways worth a visit for sure!!!!

The fastest and best way to get there is to use the transportation options available throughout the city, whether it’s a tuk-tuk or a shared ride; the drivers are very friendly and will give you useful tips on what to see and how to plan your visits. The park is amazing, and the palace is SPLENDID—though there were some lines and a bit of a wait since it was early July—but it’s definitely worth the visit. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if you’re in the Lisbon area.

Explore the 8th century military-style Moorish Castle, and 20th century fairytale Pena Palace with entry to both attractions in one convenient combo.

Climb up Moorish Castle's watch tower or admire the thought behind the Second Ring of Walls, designed to protect its people and harvest.

At Pena Palace, enjoy the eclectic mix of neo-Gothic, Manueline, and Islamic elements, then walk through the massive Pena Park dotted with statues, small ponds, and benches.

Upgrade your basic ticket with an audio guide packed with stories, legends, and secrets to enhance your visit to both UNESCO sites!

The Château des Maures, without a doubt! I went there right when it opened at 9:30 a.m. There was hardly anyone there. It was a long, steep, and tiring hike from Sintra, but well worth it for the view of the impressive citadel winding its way through a jumble of boulders, the surrounding panorama, and—from the top of the Royal Tower—the sight of the Pena Palace shrouded in mist. On the other hand, the Regaleira Palace disappointed me: the crowds, the noise...? A very 19th-century curiosity.

Climbing the castle steps to various high gates with the flags fluttering on their top was an ecstatic experience. Excellent workout for the body climbing both up and down. The view of the valley below through the castles binoculars was spectacular. Don't ever miss out on the Moorish Castle while visiting Sintra. Roy Saldanha - Doha, Qatar

The architecture at Pena Palace was stunning, not to mention the views. But, as a gardener, the highlight for me was the creativity in the secret passages and connections in all the gardens at Quinta de Regaleira.

The tickets worked perfectly, and we were given clear instructions on where to go and how to get there. They were however a lot more expensive than on the official site - which we didn't know before booking sadly.

Seeing these two magnificent palaces turned out to be an excellent choice. We spread our visits over two different days, which allowed us to leisurely stroll through the charming corners of both gardens.
