With our Pena Palace Guided Tour you will be able to access the palace skipping the huge line directly through a separate entrance. Our guide will take you back in time and Here's a small story before your experience. Before King Ferdinand II turned the idyllic mountain hideaway known as Pena Palace into a private residence, it was a monastery. Equally delightful is the nearby Pena Park, which is home to a variety of unusual plants and other hidden gems. Experience the 'Crown of the Sintra area' for yourself. Once a convent in the 16th century, Ferdinand ordered its transformation into a vibrant, fantasy-like stronghold, discarding any idea of moderation. The castle is a fascinating mash-up of Romantic, Renaissance, Manueline, and Moorish styles since the King could not decide on a single style. A must-see for anyone who enjoy vibrant colours, architecture, and design! The gardens surrounding the building are equally lovely
