I took the Sintra train from Rossio station very early in the morning to avoid too many tourists...turns out that I actually wanted to visit Pena Palace over the National Palace of Sintra...but I visited NPS in the afternoon...the day at Sintra was gorgeous weather and every photo taken looked awesome as a first time visitor to Portugal! I enjoyed the layout of the town being on the hills with Pena Palace way up on top of the hill, and the moorish Castle defending the palace below a ways down a little. I saved a bit of money on the circular bus by hiking up to Pena Castle earlier at around 8:00 am from the National Palace...the morning fog eventually lifted away as I got higher up. After touring the Pena Palace and Moorish Castle I took a one way bus ride down back to the historic center station and finally visited the NPS and had a great late lunch at Café da Villa. A stay overnight is recommended for a deeper visit into this historical town.

We had no expectations, my partner and I when we turned up. The whole experience was informative and filled with interesting artefacts and a stunning garden. An overall enjoyable experience.

Ik wilde een combi ticket maken met ander ticket dat bleek duurder te zijn dan bij een andere ticket booking service, dus hebben we die daar geboekt

Beautiful palace, not too busy so we were able to see everything without having to wait. Tickets were easy to purchase and we were able to skip the queue at the ticket office.

The palace was very interesting and quite beautiful and the views from the higher levels were spectacular. However, the crowds and lineups and numbers of people going through the palace at one time...3rd week of October which is not high season...as well as the cueing for buses in the rain and at the palace along with the journey returning to the train station were all unpleasant. I get the impression that the organizers' goal is to make as much money as possible, regardless of the quality of the visit to this beautiful place. Pack 'em in like sardines and to heck with how it impacts the visitor's experience! As long as the proceeds keep on coming by the bushel-full!! This was one of the reasons that I refused to visit the Monastery of Jerōnimos...lineups were huge in both directions!! There were other things to see without the lineups or expensive tickets!!

Your experience

Grab these tickets to The Palace of Sintra so you can explore over 1,000 years of Portuguese history. The palace is immediately discernible by its two conical chimneys - a characteristic trait of Sintra itself. With its richly decorated rooms, galleries and corridors, it was a favorite for a succession of Portuguese royal families and their retinues, right until the end of the monarchy in 1910.

Spend your time marveling at how the natural landscape was used to merge Manueline, Gothic, and Mudejar designs. The windows with surmounted arches and walls covered in glazed tiles of geometric patterns are a testament to medieval brushwork and craftsmanship.
