To get to the steep slope constructed by the Baron of Eschwege that leads to the castle-like structure, one must travel via the eastern portion of the Park of Pena. The palace itself is divided into two wings: the 19th-century wing constructed by King Ferdinand II and the former Manueline monastery of the Order of St. Jerome. A third architectural component, a fanciful representation of an imaginary castle with walkable walls that includes battlements, watchtowers, an entrance tunnel, and even a drawbridge, encircles these wings.

What are people saying about Sintra

Half-Day Sintra Pena and Regaleira palace with Small Group

Anthony_F, May 2026

Alex was a great guide.

We met near the train station in Sintra with 4 other people. Alex, our guide met us there and our journey began. He is a life long resident of Sintra and it was obvious to us only a few minutes in. He was thorough, detailed and offered a lot of useful information. We left with an education and a memory of a great day. I did however guess why the 4 side of the clock on the Palace are set to the same time stuck in history. Thanks Alex and I hope your birthday was a good day.

That the weather can be very different than Lisbon! Cooler, windy!!! The castle was incredible, good non-slip shoes are a must! Having a Tour guide whose home town is the one you’re touring brings a whole different dimension and passion to the experience! Nuno was amazing!!

Breathtaking Sintra!

This is a great tour for those who know Lisbon but who would like to see the highlights outside the city. We were a private tour for 4 in a clean and comfortable SUV. Nuno was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide, speaking perfect English and was very flexible about timing. Our tour ended up lasting about 6 and a half hours from pick up at our cruise ship to return there in the evening. Sintra is stunning and unlike anywhere else we have been - and we have travelled a great deal! We thoroughly recommend both the tour, the company and Nuno. We had a great day on land!

While Margarida is a knowledgeable, energetic, funny, and professional tour guide, what I didn’t expect was receiving dozens of professional photos later that afternoon! She knows all the right places to pose in Sintra and she made us look great! Time flew and I wish we had spent twice as much time with her!

Amazing personal tour !

We are so happy we booked this tour. Diogo was friendly and took the time to show us ALL around Sintra. We absolutely loved it. The car he picked us up in was clean and open top to enjoy the sun and views. He picked us up right on time. We got to see the sights at a relaxed pace, and he let us get out and take some great pics at the sights. Diogo was proud of being born and raised in Sintra and has a load of knowledge to share about his town. His English is great and we laughed, sang, and had a great time throughout the day. When the tour was over, he offered to drop us in the middle of town so we could explore and gave us some great places to check out before we went on our way back to Lisbon. I totally recommend you book this tour. 5 star!! A must if you are going to Sintra!
