Two extraordinary sights in the special Sintra, which you can't/shouldn't really explore in just one day. There are many unique places to visit, not all of which are easy to reach as some of them are at quite a height. The roads are narrow, busy and often one-way. It is advisable to use off-road hiking trails and allow plenty of time to get to the sights. Uber (not all drivers are familiar with the area, which can lead to a destination not being reached), the local cab service and public buses can help. We recommend staying at least two nights and planning your visits to sights very carefully due to the geographical situation and distances. The Moorish castle is very well preserved and breathtaking. Monserrat is a special house in the middle of a spacious oasis. The booking via headout worked perfectly, the tickets could be downloaded on the app even without WiFi.

Purchasing the tickets was quick and seamless. We were able to skip the entry line as ticket holders and walk right in.

Beautiful property. Signage unclear. Had to walk at least 1/2 mile uphill to get to the actual palace. It's located on a loop so had to once again walk 1/2 mile uphill to get out! Free shuttle buses were not running. No tuktuks or taxis around. We did not have the energy to attempt the Moorish Palace. Quite disappointed.

This was one of the most amazing places I visited while in Portugal. I took a Bolt ride from my hotel in Lisbon to Sintra. It was quite a hike, but so worth it for the incredible views! Saw amazing waterfalls and the palace itself was like something from a dream. I didn't see the Pena palace while in Portugal, but have a photo of it that I took during the hike to Monserrat. Saw an adorable cat sunbathing while there. 100/10 experience. Such a beautiful palace that shows the Islamic architecture/influence in Portugal. Reminded me of India

Your experience

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.
