The experience was incredible, I recommend it! Especially for the contact with nature, the preservation of the Palace and its history.

Magnifique palais 😍! Très bien conservé et très grand jardin exotique. 🌴 Il est plus petit que les autres palais de Sintra mais plus joli et propre avec un joli intérieur. Pas de file d'attente pour entrer, si vous avez vos billets à l'avance vous entrez immédiatement. C'est un lieu loin de la foule mais pourtant très joli.

Reserving online a combined discounted ticket for Quinta da Regaleira and Monserrate palaces in Sintra was a great decision. We skipped the ticket office queue and we could directly enter the palaces without any delay and waste of time. Both palaces are breath taking. It's definitely worth the visit!

You don’t need to be a historian or an architectural aficionado to know that Monserrate Palace is a work of art. A summer residence bearing witness to the eclectic tastes of a bygone era with the main halls adorned with alabaster statues and decorative symbols. Ornate details never give the impression of being over the top, reflecting Indian and Moorish influences, that come together to birth beautiful design.

On entry, you’ll receive a map that will allow you to truly get into the skin of the place. The best way to go about your tour would be to start by exploring the garden, through the scenic path. Along this winding path, you will see contrasting sceneries with waterfalls, ruined chapels, age-old araucarias, and palm trees. Home to 3,000 exotic species and separated by geographical areas, the garden offers a lens into the diverse origins of plants in the world.
