Once we got out of the station, it was very difficult to find the place. We were given the wrong directions and had to walk 14km up and back. So we were tired when we got there.

The fact that we didn't have to wait in line was amazing as it allowed us to experience the park as soon as it opened an our pictures were without people on our sides.

Absolutely magnificent palace and park! Lots of little passages, fountains and caves in the park. Something for young and old alike! The queue for the initiatory well is long, but it moves along quite quickly. A must-see, as are the palace and park of Monserate, which are also splendid.

Great venues, the tickets worked. However, the guide took multiple attempts to download and was very hard to follow. We finallly deleted it.

Beautiful grounds, beauty at every turn! We walked past some of the smaller areas because they weren't clearly marked but we still loved the experience!

Your experience

What makes Quinta da Regaleira worth visiting

The Quinta da Regaleira, a beautiful castle and mysterious garden that was built in the late 1800s reflects the interests and worldviews of its first owner, billionaire Portuguese-Brazilian António Augusto de Carvalho Monteiro. All admirers of architecture, landscape, and even mysticism should visit the Quinta da Regaleira. The estate conceals occult buildings, magical settings, and alchemical symbols connected to the Rosicrucian Order, the Templars, and Freemasonry. Exuberantly Gothic pinnacles, gargoyles, capitals, and an amazing octagonal tower define the building's façade.

Hassle-free entry and optional upgrades

Along with the skip-the-line entry and the freedom to explore at your leisure, you can opt for a downloadable, multilingual audio guide that is filled with well-researched content to make your visit more informative and engaging. For a more personal touch choose the company of a knowledgeable English-speaking guide to discover the lesser-known secrets, myths, and legends associated with the Quinta. You can also opt for a guided tour of Sintra with a visit to Cascais as you cool down in this beach vacation spot.
