Dear Customer,
We are pleased to inform you that our company now offers Fast Track tickets for Pena Palace visits, ensuring complete convenience and eliminating long wait times.
Should there be any changes to the tour date, the customer will be responsible for the cost of a new ticket for the rescheduled date.
The Palace now operates on a slot scheduling system, with timed entries every 30 minutes (e.g., 09:30, 10:00), and limited availability for each slot.
During peak season or for bookings made only a few weeks in advance, availability may be restricted—making Fast Track tickets not only included but highly recommended.
- Quinta da Regaleira - Located near Sintra’s historic center, Quinta da Regaleira is one of the town’s most intriguing attractions.
The Palace of Quinta da Regaleira was constructed in the early 20th century by the millionaire António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (1848-1920), who fulfilled one of his dreams here with the assistance of the scenographic architect Luigi Manini (1848-1936). Surrounded by lush greenery, the Palácio da Regaleira is a captivating discovery. Special attention is given to the Capela da Santíssima Trindade (Chapel of the Holy Trinity), where visitors can descend a spiral staircase into the crypt to uncover the monumental initiation well that, at its base, leads through a grotto to a hidden lake amidst the gardens.
Special notes:
- Due to the National Palace of Pena’s slot schedule system (half-hour entrances) and being the main activity, the visit to Regaleira may need to be adjusted or canceled. Our guide can offer alternatives accordingly.
- Sintra - After visiting Pena Palace, enjoy free time to explore the historic center of Sintra. Wander through the narrow streets and be sure to try the famous queijadas and pillows.
Special notes (Summer 2025):
Due to new traffic regulations in Sintra and the high season at Pena Palace, our primary goal is to provide quality on this half-day tour. Therefore, we will visit Pena Palace (3h) and afterward, recommend visiting either the Regaleira Gardens (1h) OR the historic center (1h). If the client wishes to visit all three stops, our guide will allocate less time at each location, which we believe is not ideal for our clients.
If you would like to customize your tour to include more attractions, other highlights, or additional time, please let us know.
