Finally, step into the magical and mysterious world of the Quinta da Regaleira, known for its gardens, grottoes, and enigmatic symbols. Explore its Gothic-inspired architecture, secret tunnels, and hidden stories as you unravel the mysteries of this enchanting estate.

️ Important Note – Alternative Itinerary in Case of Closures:

In rare situations when Pena Palace, Quinta da Regaleira, or both are closed — which may happen due to natural disasters, extreme weather conditions, or heat waves — the tour will still go ahead with an alternative plan.

In such cases, the visit will include:

The National Palace of Sintra, located in the heart of the village

The elegant Queluz Palace, often called the “Portuguese Versailles”

This alternative ensures a rich and memorable experience while maintaining the spirit of the tour.
