Another excellent video. I have visited Quinta da Regaleira before, I remember getting lost in both the gardens and the interior, they were wonderfully fairytale like.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Makis 🩵 Quinta da Regaleira is a dreamy place indeed!

If we just walk around the palace, do we have access to the terraces? Specifically with kids, it will be hard to wait until to get inside

[@ItsAllTripToMe]

Hi there, thanks for your comment! If you buy tickets for the Pena Park only, you have access to the entire park and the outside terraces/wall walk around the palace. If you buy the Park & Palace ones, you get all this plus a circuit through the interior of the palace. So, if you don't want/can't wait to get inside the palace but you want to wander around the terraces, buy the Park only tickets. Hope we helped 🙂
