Two extraordinary sights in the special Sintra, which you can't/shouldn't really explore in just one day. There are many unique places to visit, not all of which are easy to reach as some of them are at quite a height. The roads are narrow, busy and often one-way. It is advisable to use off-road hiking trails and allow plenty of time to get to the sights. Uber (not all drivers are familiar with the area, which can lead to a destination not being reached), the local cab service and public buses can help. We recommend staying at least two nights and planning your visits to sights very carefully due to the geographical situation and distances. The Moorish castle is very well preserved and breathtaking. Monserrat is a special house in the middle of a spacious oasis. The booking via headout worked perfectly, the tickets could be downloaded on the app even without WiFi.

The visit to the castle wall was amazing! We took an Uber to the castle from where we stayed in Sintra. We got there around 11am and it was still fairly quiet. The full trip around the castle wall takes less than an hour. Easy walk in & overall great experience. If you wish to do the Pena Palace it is within walking distance from the castle. There is a hiking route of about 350m(less than 10min walk) from the castle to the Pena Palace gate.

Purchasing the tickets was quick and seamless. We were able to skip the entry line as ticket holders and walk right in.

I liked it all. Walking up the castles and views. The chapel and courtyard at Pena. I was a bit disappointed with Pena Palace because it was more money and there's not a lot more to see than any of the other palaces.

Sintra is amazing! We had tickets booked for the Moorish Castle and Quinta da Regaleira. Received these through the mail. At both, check-in went without a hitch.

This combo ticket grants access to 2 iconic destinations: the Moorish Castle and Monserrate Palace, offering both convenience and savings compared to individual tickets.

Moorish Castle

The Castle of the Moors, situated atop a hill in Sintra, Portugal, is a testament to centuries of history. From the castle walls, you can see beautiful views of the Tejo River to the south, stretching to Arrabida, and Cabo da Roca to the west. From here, you can see Peniche to the north and enjoy the view of Sintra's lush hills with charming homes and chalets. Ongoing archaeological digs have unearthed fascinating finds, including a Christian graveyard and various artifacts now showcased within the castle. Today, the esteemed Moorish Castle stands as a National Monument, designated a UNESCO World Heritage site, welcoming visitors from all walks of life.

Monserrate Palace

Monserrate Palace isn't just for history buffs; it's a masterpiece for everyone. This summer retreat showcases the unique tastes of its past owners, with stunning halls filled with alabaster statues and ornate symbols.

Upon arrival, you'll get a map to fully explore the palace. Start by wandering through the garden along the scenic path. Along the way, you'll encounter waterfalls, ancient chapels, and a variety of trees. The garden boasts 3,000 exotic plant species, organized by geographic area, offering a glimpse into the global diversity of flora.
