Invalid tickets sent

Amanda_T, Sep 2026

Invalid tickets were sent to me. I messaged and rang your provider and another invalid set of tickets were sent to me. Very frustrating and upsetting experience!!! Just buy tickets at the castle - this is a waste of time!!!!

Don’t Use This Tour Company!

Jan_S, Sep 2026

The castle was wonderful. Definitely see this. The castle gives free tours in several languages and their tour was excellent. BUT do not use this tour company to buy tickets in advance. It was awful. We paid for our tickets 3 weeks in advance but they would not send us our tickets, even though they kept promising to do so, We finally got them 1 hour before the tour after I kept sending them emails, and they were the wrong tickets. They were for children, although we bought senior tickets. The castle would not let us in with the wrong tickets. We had to wait in a long line to buy new tickets. This tour operator charged us $57 for 2 tickets. The castle charged us 14 euros, with a free audioguide. We are trying to get our money back.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for bringing this situation to our attention, and we are deeply sorry to hear about your frustrating experience regarding your visit to Castelo de São Jorge. We completely understand how stressful it must have been to deal with delayed, incorrect tickets and to be forced to buy new ones at the gate after paying three weeks in advance. Delivering ticket vouchers on time and ensuring the correct categories are issued is our baseline responsibility, and we clearly fell short in this instance. While we are glad you were still able to enjoy the castle and its surroundings, we take your refund request and feedback regarding our pricing and service extremely seriously. Please reach out to our support team directly with your booking reference so we can ensure your full refund is processed without any further delay.

Great city views and fascinating glimpse into history

Jennifer_M, Aug 2026

The audio guide gave a great step by step path to explore and enjoy the castle. The ticket line was quite long when we arrived so we were glad to have the skip the line access. The overlooks provide breathtaking views of Lisbon. Walking through the castle and climbing the stairs to the top was a stroll through history. Great way to spend a few hours with the family and steps away from great shopping in the surrounding neighborhood.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that having our skip-the-line access saved you time at the entrance and that you enjoyed exploring Saint George's Castle using the audio guide. It sounds like your family had a fantastic time climbing to the top, taking in those breathtaking Lisbon views, and exploring the surrounding neighborhood afterward. Thank you again for choosing our Castelo de São Jorge entry tickets with audio guide, and we hope to welcome you and your family on another adventure soon!

Enjoy this tour

Polly_M, Sep 2025

The tour guide speak perfect English. He is really knowledgeable about Portugal history. He told us a lot of stories about this country. Enjoy the tour with him.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad to hear that our guide’s knowledge and storytelling made your visit to Castel São Jorge enjoyable. It’s wonderful that you were able to learn so much about Portugal’s history while skipping the lines and making the most of your tour.

Wonderful historical experience.

Debi_C, Sep 2025

The self guided tour was informative , but we stopped listening and ended up exploring on our own. Fascinating experience for this first time traveler to any castle. A lot of stairs and steps. Not for the out of shape.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that your first visit to a castle was such a fascinating one. Exploring at your own pace is a great way to take in the history and atmosphere. You’re absolutely right — Castel São Jorge does involve quite a few stairs and steps, so we always recommend comfortable footwear and a bit of energy for the climb. We’re glad you enjoyed the visit and hope it left you with wonderful memories of Lisbon!

Worth the climb! Go early for little crowds

Seveline_D, Sep 2025

Go early, got there at 9.00am no queue! And had the place all to myself. Surreal feeling. The free roaming peacock make it even wilder! Worth the climb up for sure. Make sure to download the tickets via email before you go.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you enjoyed visiting Castel São Jorge — arriving early is definitely a great tip to avoid the crowds and really take in the atmosphere. The free-roaming peacocks truly make the visit even more special! We also appreciate your reminder about downloading the tickets in advance, as it helps make the entry process smooth. Happy to know the climb and the views were worth it. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
