It is rather redundant to say that nowadays visiting any place of interest means standing in lines, public transportation, crowds and very little time to soak in what you want to see.
Not with this tour. The Private Access Pena Palace & Express Sintra Tour from Lisbon takes away all the hassle, gives you a smooth ride to the palace gates and most importantly you kind of glide through this fairytale palace surrounded by luxurious vegetation on top of clouds. No noise, no clicking of cameras, no pushing. You hear your guide easily and are able to ask questions.
The Palace offers you diversity with its miscellaneous styles, beauty and sense of humour. As you finish your tour and look down from the queen’s balcony, which is opened on very warm days, and watch the crowds climbing up you do feel like royalty.
A word about our guide, Nina, who makes you feel comfortable and explains things in a simple and knowledgeable way. Thank you.
It is so worth it to get up early. As you finish before midday and feel refreshed you are able to take advantage from the rest of your day instead of dragging yourself back to the hotel. I highly recommend it.
