The Palace was amazing! We loved seeing inside the different rooms and especially loved the garden. All of the ticketing worked well.

This tour of Sintra where I visited Pena and Quinta da Regaleira was very interesting and I really enjoyed using Headout!

The access was perfect to the Pena Palace you have to be half an hour before at the lower entrance from there it is quite a distance to the Palace entrance

My girlfriend was screaming at me on the Tuc Tuc because of the traffic and we got lost and the man in the Tuc Tuc tried to bring us to his home. But other than this the Palace Pena was a great experience. Thanks to the Tuc Tuc we made in time 👍

That is a must see while in Sintra. We walked from the village to see both Castles, the Moorish and the Pena.
Although it was very busy with tourists (us included), long line up, but once we were inside the Pena castle, it was easy to get around without being overcrowded. We also had a nice lunch at the Pena cafeteria before leaving.

The staff was very helpful (they allowed us to enter even though we were late for our visit), the castle is well-kept, and the gardens are very well maintained, filled with exotic plant species

Amazing, I loved the palace and rhe park was so nice as well. Keep in mind once you enter you have around 10-20 minutes until you reach the entrance of the pena palace

The Pena Palace is well worth a visit (inside and out). To get there on foot from the Quinta da Regaleira, you'll need to allow 1h at a good walking pace, as you'll have to cross the first park, then the Parc da Pena, to finally get to the castle, and it's a really steep climb. Even with tickets, there's a bit of a queue to get in while the agents scan everyone's tickets (15 minutes at the end of the day in October for us).

All in all ok. Croudy as expected. Lack of directions was a minus. We couldn't get into a Pena park. Almost all paths in forest were closed, that was very irritating. I wanted to take a stroll or a hike in the woods, but wasn't able to. Inside wasn't as interesting as outside. A bunch of some old plates, dying furniture as in any museum. Air was hard to breathe inside. But outside it was amazing. Smell of a fresh air, fog, castle.

The Drive up to Pena is an amazing experience. When you get there the view is breathtaking. The castle in the clouds is the most beautiful and spectacular place! Everything inside the castle looks so authentic and amazing.
Enjoyed the visit 100 %
Please wear walking shoes or sneakers so you can enjoy the experience.

The palace outside is splendid to visit and take beautiful photos! The gardens are equally beautiful and peaceful. It's worth booking the time to see the castle inside- beautiful!

We'd read about Palace of Peña when reading up on trips to Sintra. After entering the palace grounds it's an approx 20 min walk up to the palace itself, there is a bus available for a small cost, but we decided to walk. We'd booked our time slot and entry was bang on time. It's interesting to see how the rooms of the palace were decorated 200 years ago and the views from the exterior areas were great. However our favourite part was the exterior grounds, the lake areas were beautiful. A worthwhile visit when in Sintra. Our booking with Headout was easy and notifications from them confirmed the details and accessing the tickets was trouble free.

Nice experience. We loved the Pena Palace and surroundings. I recommend the carriage museum. On the downside, we were not able to visit the Belem Tower. We arrived at the site and the officials did not give us access. They use tourists to get job perks and that is unfair. It is a bad image for Portugal and tour operators like Headout should take part in it, because they sell a promise that is not being fulfilled and it also damages their image. For me, the fair thing would be to be compensated for those tickets included in the Lisbon Card.

We liked the crazy colorful uniqueness of the Pena Palace. There were long lines but the site was so well organized everyone moved along well. We arrived at 10:30, having taken Uber from Lisbon right to the gate where the buses that go up are located. The morning fog had burned off showing bright blue sky. This truly is a site not to be missed.

It was great. Long climb, but totally worth it. It is amazing that it was design by an amateur architect based on amateur ideas of the king.
