The Pena Palace is worthy of a true fairy tale. Located at the highest point of the Sintra mountain range, it is the result of the creative genius of King Consort D. Fernando II of Portugal, built from the ruins of a 16th century monastery, at the height of 19th century Romanticism in Portugal, with references architectural influences of Gothic, Renaissance and Moorish influences. We also highlight the park with lush forests and gardens with more than five hundred tree species from the four corners of the world.

The arrangement of the spaces in height, the intimate organization of the open-air interior courtyards DO you hear the water running, its windows with obsolete arches and the tile coatings OF rich geometric patterns, did DE connect the characteristics of various architectural styles resulting from the remodels made by the various kings over the centuries.

This tour was OUTSTANDING. We had an incredibly knowledgeable and kind tour guide. He gave us ample time for shopping and lunch. He went above and beyond to give us additional time to adjust to our young children's needs. Please note that this tour is quite physically demanding with a lot of walking, including uphill. Our guide was wonderful in accommodating to our needs.
Thank you so much for your kind words — it was a real pleasure welcoming your family. We’re very happy to know you enjoyed the experience and that our guide was able to adjust the pace and timing to your children’s needs. You’re absolutely right that this tour can be a bit demanding physically, especially on the uphill sections, and we really appreciate you sharing that note for future travellers. We hope to have the chance to welcome you again on a future visit to Portugal.
I can’t recommend the private tour enough. I visited Lisbon with my two best friends and we booked the tour to Sintra from Lisbon. Manuel was our guide and he was absolutely amazing- knowledgable, kind, and very considerate, always asking if we were comfortable and needed anything. The tour was worth every penny and one of the best days I’ve had traveling. Thank you Manuel for an amazing day
