I think that when many of the places are closed the price should be cheaper..
Taking advantage of not too many people for great pictures

Visit to gardens
Family
Overpriced & shambolic queuing for bus to take us to palace. Despite brochure stating bus 434 from station you gave to get 2 buses at a cost of 34 euros for 5 people. Queue for bus to palace took well over 1 hour. Bus trip long & slow due to traffic. Not worth it. Would advise you visit Monserrate instead- less busy & gardens prettier. Suggestion - if you want to avoid long queue for bus back, exit palace gardens by duck pond lakes. It is only 3 min walk to bus stop you get get on here othetwise you will queue for 2 hours at the palace. Also by walking up the left hand side of the queue you can look at palace ramparts for free. Queues to get into palace were looking as tho they would take 3 hours.

Si vous aimez les queues d’eurodisney
Worst experience in Portugal. You have to queue for min 30 min and no one tells you how long it will last, while people are skipping the queue. Then the visit is just one long queue. We had booked our tickets in advance to be sure it would be a nice moment, we will not come back or recommend to friends.

Be prepared but is worth
Travelling from the south side east roads with signs until you reach Sintra… after that prepare yourself for the most annoying lack of directions ever. Entrance to palace is paid but apparently that money is not enough for proper signs. GPS will be confused mostly cause now it’s a single way drive and once again the entity that runs the palace doesn’t care about updating information.
But once you arrive you’ll be presented with a stunning place and views. Fair climbs so come prepared with decent shoes for a good experience. Bring snacks and drinks cause the services are poor. Price is fair but the lack signs and information is shockingly bad!

This review does not relate to any services provided by Diversity Tours. It is a personal opinion about a visit made individually. If you had hired our services, you would have had a peaceful and smooth visit as we know the restrictions on access to the places. Next time hire accredited professionals

Beautiful Place! The vivid colors, the blending of architectural styles and the various details on the walls and furnishings make this palace a very luxurious and exquisite monument. If I ever return to Portugal I would like to visit again

Beautiful palace in Sintra
We had a great experience here in this palace. We didn't get any queue to get in. The views from the palace are stunning. We will return for sure!

Visited this intriguing Capuchin Franciscan convent and struck by its stark simplicity and tiny spacing. Garden most conducive to meditation.
