Some tips for visiting Pena Palace from Lisbon:
- The train from Lisbon is super cheap, around €5 for a return ticket. Trains run twice an hour, they get pretty busy so get there early to avoid standing for 45 minutes
- When you arrive in Sintra, there are quite a few options for what to do, if you just want to visit Pena Palace then get a taxi
- There are two different tour buses which are €20 each and offer a hop on hop off service
- I recommend just getting a taxi as it works out cheaper because Pena Palace might take you the whole day
- The palace is €7 to get into the gardens or €15 to get into the palace and gardens
- The busiest time is the mornings, the queue to go around the inside of the palace is long in the morning
- If you only want to take pictures of the outside then just buy a ticket for the grounds
- If you pay to go inside the palace, no photos are allowed, if you go in the morning it is very over crowded
- After lunchtime the crowds ease up
- It is very easy to spend the whole day here wondering around
