Pena Palace | UNESCO world heritage site

An ode to the beauty of Portuguese architecture during the Romantic era, Pena Palace stands atop the Sintra mountain. Once a popular pilgrimage site and later the residence of the royal family, it was ultimately converted into a museum in 1991. 

Painted in attractive shades of red and yellow, the architecture has all the features of a Romantic-era classic with distinct Moorish and Manueline influences. Surrounding the palace is an extensive park where you will come across more than 500 species of trees. Read on to explore Pena Palace ticket options, timings, highlights, and everything else you need to know for your Pena Palace tour. 

Things to know before booking Pena Palace tickets

  • Understand the various ticket options available. For simple entry, go for Pena Palace & Park Tickets , but there are several upgrades and combos like the Pena Palace & Moorish Castle or Quinta da Regaleira + Pena Palace Tickets, which might save you money if you plan to visit multiple sites. Evaluate if options like skip-the-line or round-trip transport could enhance your experience based on your schedule and mobility needs.
  • Check the availability of tickets for the dates you plan to visit. Some tickets, like the Lisbon Card + Pena Palace combo, offer instant confirmation and mobile ticketing, allowing for more flexibility. Consider the park's vast area (200 hectares) and the time you might spend there, which could affect your entire day's schedule.
  • If you prefer more structured guidance, consider booking a Pena Palace Guided Tour that provides historical insights and directs you to significant spots within the palace and park. For a more flexible and self-paced visit, the audio guide option could be a better fit.
  • Think about the transport options, if you're not driving. Go for transportation options included with your ticket. Some tickets offer Pena Palace Day Trips with transportation options, which could be crucial as the walking time between different sections of the park and palace can be significant (around 30 minutes between sections).
  • Entry tickets and time selection: When purchasing tickets for Pena Palace, you must select a specific time slot for your entry into the palace. This time slot is strictly for entering the palace itself, not the park or other attractions. It's essential to choose a time that allows you to explore the park and other areas beforehand if desired.
  • Parking and travel time consideration: Be aware that there is approximately a 30-minute uphill walk from the designated parking area to Pena Palace. This walk can be challenging, especially during peak tourist seasons. It’s crucial to factor in this additional time when planning your visit, especially when selecting your entry time for the palace. This will ensure you arrive promptly and enjoy your visit without feeling rushed.
  • Uneven terrain is a problem. The terrain at Pena Park and the palace is uneven and may be challenging for those with mobility issues. Check if the ticket provides any additional support or if there are accessible paths you can use.
  • Weather. Given the park's extensive open and natural space, weather can influence your visit. Wear comfortable walking shoes and carry suitable clothing to adapt to changing weather conditions, like sudden rains or strong sun.

Time management for visiting Pena Palace

  • If you’re planning to visit Pena Palace from Sintra, there's a bit of a journey involved. From Sintra Railway Station, the palace is around 2 km away, and while the idea of hiking might seem appealing to seasoned walkers, it’s quite steep and could take up to 1.5 hours. To save your energy for exploring the palace and park, we recommend opting for convenient transport options like the bus nº 434, which costs around €4.55, or trying a fun tuk-tuk ride for approximately €10 per person (always negotiable!). Taxis are also available and will get you there in about 12 minutes, costing roughly €8.
  • Here’s the tricky part—when you purchase your entry tickets for Pena Palace, you’ll need to select a specific time slot for entry into the palace itself. The time you choose only applies to the palace and not the park or other attractions nearby. So, if you want to explore the park beforehand or just need some extra time to enjoy the views, it’s super important to choose a time slot that allows for that.
  • Driving to Sintra from Lisbon? It’ll take you about 40 minutes if you go via the A37. For a more scenic adventure, consider the N6 coastal road, where you might even spot dolphins along the way! But here’s the catch: once you reach Parque da Pena, vehicles aren’t allowed inside the complex.
  • Parking is limited, with a small lot near the main entrance, so it’s best to arrive early. Just be prepared for a 30-minute uphill walk from the parking lot to the palace entrance—this can be quite the workout, especially during peak season. Make sure to add this extra time when planning your day to avoid feeling rushed before your entry slot.
  • If you’re taking the train from Lisbon to Sintra, it’s a convenient 40-minute ride, but don’t forget to factor in the time it takes to buy tickets. Online booking isn't available, so it’s smart to arrive at the station 20-25 minutes early to avoid long lines at the ticket machines or cash registers. The tickets cost around €7, and the entire journey (train ride plus buying time) can take around 2 hours.
