The views of Lisbon from the castle made it worth the ticket. Be prepared for walking over uneven cobblestone and steps though.

The view of Lisbon was great from that spot. Getting tickets with my phone and skipping the line while everyone else stood in was wonderful.

I booked the entrance tickets to Sao Jorge Castle as soon as we arrived in front. There would have been an endless queue at the ticket counters to go through, which would surely have taken up a lot of time that we were able to devote to the visit instead. It was all very quick and the visit was worthwhile

It is a place of world history, very moving to be within those walls and if you can take the option of watching a 3D video even more interesting.

The castle was great. Buying the ticket online saved a good amount time of not having to wait in the queue. Highly recommend buying tickets online.

Your Experience

Combine two unique panoramic views of Lisbon with one cost-saving ticket.

Rua Augusta Arch

The Rua Augusta Arch, which can be seen on the busy Praça do Comércio square, is a symbolic structure in Portugal's capital city. The earthquake that leveled the city in 1755 served as motivation for its growth in the 19th century, representing the city's will to rise again from the ashes of the disaster it endured. A monumental gateway built in the neoclassical style, it has a statue of the goddess of victory, winged figures, and reliefs depicting scenes from the city's reconstruction. Pass under the arch and take in the sights of Praça do Comércio and the city below. This spot provides a perfect backdrop to photograph the city and river.

St. George’s Castle

The impacts of the Visigoths and the Moors can still be seen today on Lisbon’s highest hill. St. George's Castle was named after England's patron saint more than two centuries after it was built, following the Anglo-Portuguese Treaty of 1373. Interactive touch screens inside explain the background of the region around the castle hill. With its thick walls and terraces covered by pine trees, this castle has become the city's most distinctive sight.

There are a total of ten towers, and you can climb them all! Moorish antiquities like coins, pottery, and tiles were discovered during excavations in the region around the castle and are currently on display there. Peacocks, which can be found in the gardens surrounding the towers, never fail to amaze visitors with their brilliant plumage.
