Things to do in Monserrate Palace

Climbing the city wall is a great experience. You can see special plants along the way and use telescopes to see the scenery. The scenery on the mountain is cool but the sun is strong, so you still need to pay attention to sun protection and replenish water:)

The tour guide Martim was enthusiastic and friendly. He grew up in Sintra and was really a great guide! We contacted in advance to customize the attractions and provided a list of restaurants. The estimated time for each attraction was perfect and the experience was great. I highly recommend it!

The palace closes an hour earlier than the park. Due to traffic jams, the trip was delayed, so I had to take photos outside. The palace is not big but it is very interesting. Many people touched the door nails.

There is a high risk of traffic jams near the Moorish Castle, so everyone should pay attention to traffic. In addition, it is recommended that it will be more comfortable in winter and require less leg strength.

We are a family of 4 going on a day trip with our tour guide Catarina to Sintra and Cascais. it’s an enjoyable journey with beautiful scenery. Catarina gave us suggestions of where to go, what to do. The restaurant suggestion was really helpful, we had a great seafood meal at a reasonable price. she also gave us different information about Portugal and the area we visited, making the enjoy enjoyable, informative and interesting.

The tour guide is very responsible and enthusiastic, the historical explanation is very clear, you can see different scenery of the castle town and the seaside in one day, it is highly recommended for a one-day trip.

the guide, named Hugo is funny and makes the tour not boring

Gustavo is a very professional guide- always taking care of us, looking out for us and full of stories about the area. makes the day trip to Sintra unforgettable!
