5/5 - Excellent

We went as a day trip with one of the Expedia "Things to Do" - had a great day visiting the Pena Palace, the town of Sintra and stops at a couple of coastal locations on the way back to Lisbon. The Palace is spectacular, but be prepared to do a bit of walking, lots of slopes (small shuttle bus is available within the site but infrequent from what I could see) - views are amazing from the top and you'll be blown away by the architecture - probably as close to a Disney castle as you could get :)

Need a full day to enjoy it. Lots of steep walking!

3/5 - Okay

Definitely take a tuk tuk or jeep up to the palace from Sintra village and take another back as it is at least a 1 hour walk and then there is the walking around the palace and grounds.

Good tour but unfortunately the area was clouded in mist until we were leaving. Still worthwhile going to see the town and both palaces

Involved very long queues for everything. Apart from spectacular views, palace itself was disappointing
