[@breakfastattiffanys741]

Actually speechless Steph and Oliver 😍

[@GoldenLady9779]

I think one could say that Stephanie's and Oliver's inner child part of them is very alive and well.❣ Thank you for the beautiful video. 🥰

[@cwatson3495]

I had seen a clip of this on another travel vlog, but yours was a thousand times more fun! Stephanie and Oliver are so great together, you can’t miss the deep friendship between these two.

[@corinnealford2952]

That floor in The Hunting Room was amazing! Thank you for taking us with you!

[@lauraclaudia8159]

This is a must for everyone!!! Amazing places to be seen!!! And great humour!!!❤❤❤❤

[@carolweaver3269]

This was everything anyone would desire in a dream and more. Has much suspense and dreamy grandeur and yet Romantique overtures. Perfect for me anyway. Would have loved a suspenseful, quiet journey through the towers and all of the waterfalls and finding even all the hidden gems. Loved all the history given, and the fun you both have together as you do these vlogs! You keep is so enjoyable as to have us feel as though we too are moving along with you and this time wonderful at times if you were lost, or if somehow you would make it out before dark, and the park did close! So much to see and all in just one place, Thanks Stephanie and Ollie! Just look forward to so much, to these vlogs! The castles are always the best, and the churches and the castles were kept up so nicely.

[@juliefuggle314]

Wow that was some garden that was fun to join you two thank you stephanie and ollie really enjoyed tonight

[@lainemurphy3092]

This is my favorite Travel ….. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kathsmith4924]

what a fascinating picturesque place i do love the gardens

[@cherylkurucz8852]

A mysterious palace ooh ooh how exciting!!!!!😁

[@maryjanekolesar8325]

Yes, craftsmanship Ollie and yes oppressive Staphanie. The garden viewed from the house, looks like a destination! I OMG Incredible well!? Wow, yes very weird and just imagine the planning to build it.

[@florentinalily]

I am so enjoying your travels. Absolutely fascinating; thankyou x

[@IRSA1]

Lovely, playful exploration of the mist intriguing palace and its fantasy gardens, set to a perfect soundtrack and with some skilful filming techniques. The only thing is that I would not be surprised if that spiral well does not resurface in a nightmare !

[@hepzib928]

Great job you two. LOVING the vlogs

[@bethbovey7566]

Amazing place, another fantastic vlog.

[@luciaroslingshaw2112]

Loving the fun music.

[@jacquelinefannin1957]

Travels with my friend is fast becoming my favourite vlog . ❤❤❤

[@melaniewest3947]

It is a beautiful place to look around. Such stunning scenery. I loved coming along with you in the winding paths. That waterfall and pool was just gorgeous

[@newday5]

Lol the Repunsel part was a whoot. I was in Malta the St John Knights centre and that would be an amazing trip for the “ friends” plus the lovely sunshine and great people. The pre date pyramids stone circle of stones are so clever even a hole carved out for a calendar stone.

[@Marykguise]

Extraordinary video!! Thank you for sharing!! Love from Mary in Southern California. 💗

[@debtheguest3109]

Beautiful dress Stephanie! The stone work AND the wood work was stunning. So were the wall paintings. But you're right, the gardens and all the stone towers and grottos were well worth the walk. Thanks so much for sharing this. Stephanie's story about her trip to Croatia and the land mines just cracked me up!! Beautiful music as well.

[@thoml1846]

Poor Oliver lol When you were going down the stairs in the well beckoning Oliver on it reminded me of a vampire movie where the female vampire lures her victim deeper and deeper into her lair. I hope Camilla doesnt find any bite marks on his neck lol

[@blakehahn-atlantaga8510]

Amazing!! That was so much fun! Thank you! The garden was mind blowing!

[@ifxequalswhy]

As someone who is very claustrophobic, going down those stairs to the well and into the labyrinth would absolutely feel like descending through more than 9 circles of hell. LOL 😂 Thank you for doing it for me and letting me live vicariously through you.

[@hedgewood7152]

Thanks for sharing! ✨🌞✨

[@krisscamire4081]

Stephanie Ollie the treasure is the whole place you are so lucky to see such a beautiful place its Treasure of your eyes

[@margielynch7196]

I couldn’t wrap my mind around the palace. Too much to take in. Overloaded my senses.The garden was so beautiful and felt much lighter . ❤

[@joywatts4839]

Great energy and editing thank you.

[@chemokiki]

Decoratively burdened? Never heard of such a thing! This Quinta is outrageous and if I can get up off the floor I am checking with my travel agent! Thank you for unveiling these most incredible places to us!!

[@jennifermckenziemedium]

I was just there in April of this year and at that same Palace. and spent time in both initiation wells. It is such a beautiful unique place, Sintra, with so much deep history. and the Quinta de Regalaria is a stunning Palace It is a Knights of the Templar Initiation well. There is a difference, I have been studying the history. The initiation included the Knights going in one by one, blindfolded with their sword across their heart, descending into the 9 levels and if they found their way out where the stepping stones are they would across them symbolizing Christ walking on water and their initiation would be complete and considered a success. I experienced an incredible initiation in the second well, it was said they used that one more often than the one with the Knights of Templar cross

[@joyguthrie964]

Love the camaraderie between the two of you as you take us to amazing sights!

[@TheAngela2468]

I was laughing at all your comments what a mysterious place 😊😊😊😊😊

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

I liked the house but I could not live in it. Too much for me! Loved the tower. You were both very brave! Thank you for the video! Magnificent cinematography!

[@marcetmilouprimaryfrench6813]

What a wonderful video! We were there the same day and saw you from the queue! Glad you enjoyed it and such a fantastic video of the beautiful gardens- we also didn’t love the palace! X

[@carolesmith6620]

Fascinating place thanks for taking us on your trip Stephanie and Ollie . take care and see you both next time 💕🌼🤗

[@rayleneertle951]

That was amazing!!.

[@barbdalrymple778]

Wow! Now I want to go there too! Thanks for sharing! Xoxo love from Canada!

[@charleswalker1185]

This one is great!

[@susannahwhitaker994]

I have never seen such incredible stone work, you certainly take us to amazing places. Thankyou🤗

[@karenniehues4786]

The woodwork in the castle was a bit too much but wonderfully carved!

[@lisac1110]

Wholly molly what a spectacular place totally overwhelming and i dont think 1 day is enough to explore you 2 made it very informative and fun ❤😊❤😊

[@cindymaceda2999]

18,000 steps and going…Hope your feet were alright ?

[@JaneHealy1972]

omg what fun - you guys are hilarious! Those gardens though, how crazy are they?!? Loving your Portugal adventures! It's never been on my must visit list, but it is now! Thank you for sharing your travels and inspiring mine... xo

[@riahenley9974]

That was so interesting and beautiful……..!!! 😊

[@terraena1010]

I loved this episode, great editing as well. ❤

[@newday5]

Ollie needs to build a grotto waterfall in his back yard it would be amazing !

[@magsmcdaid1999]

Beautiful place, brilliant video. Loved every minute of it x Thank you both

[@lornanorris1363]

What a cool place to explore, it's almost a maze.

[@lizslater5607]

Great video again thank you so much ,what an incredible place ! Xxx

[@efycoustas5219]

Such a delightful adventure! Thank you

[@gabbyharris2906]

What a magnificent building loved it all wows. Thanks for taking us on your journey, Fabulous ❤😮🤗

[@svg7335]

This is the best vlog yet!! The humor and the drama were exquisite!

[@judithclark2823]

I have had the best time watching the two of you on this travel adventure! I had some good laughs! Ollie’s facial expressions, his body language from the climbs, his hat, Stephanie’s expressions,such fun. What a palace and gardens! I have to say the place was rather heavy and oppressive inside with all that wood. With what is going on right now, this was such a whimsical break. Thank you both so much for that🥰💕

[@figencebe9287]

incredible place … imagining people imagining, projecting a place like this and finding the architects, craftsmen to realise it … who are all these talented people ? I mean character wise, psychologically too … crazy … thank you Stephanie & Oliver … you are amazing …

[@jenoxley5092]

What an absolutley BRILLIANT video !!!!AMAZING .You two work sooo well together.Thankyou ,im totally enchanted after watching this. Big hugs X

[@ntakovacj3644]

What a mysterious place -- i love the story of the KNIGHTS Templar!

[@jampuppy]

The living room is very heavy. I think I would only like sitting in it if I were feeling introspective. Interesting history lessons!

[@michaeldriebeekvanderven]

This was fun! 🎉 Such a cheerful episode 🤩✨ Sending you warm greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@MundaneParticle]

It can't be said enough, you guys are so freaken fun together. It feels like im actually traveling with friends goofing around but also getting into the nerdy things like trivia and history. Even being lost in the gardens near closing time is enjoyable with you guys.

[@eleanorchapple8772]

You bring us to the most incredible places and make them such fun.

[@peterwhite9261]

The two of you bringing out your inner child made this a smashing hit. Such splendeur and decadence. Stunningly incredible. Thank you for bringing us along. ❤

[@1231ms54]

Thanks for sharing this beautiful place.

[@elbaortiz-bq9iq]

Love all the information and Theon tour

[@lindadarbyfiset]

This is spectacular. Very eerie in 'The well'. I am absolutely 'Gob Smacked" The splendor of the architecture and luxuriousness of the castle etc. Yet at that time very basic hygiene and medicine to say the least always baffles me. Steph you certainly got your waddle on, poor Ollie must have been exhausted. But I am thinking you would not have missed this for the world. How can you beat this vlog on your travels. Xx

[@thewilliamseswonderfulworld]

I love the carved wood ceilings. So intricate.

[@lmarion57435]

The music selections for this video were spectacular!

[@susandelongis885]

What a fantastic exploration of this beautiful, strange garden with the perfect pair of fun and imaginative guides! The crowns were the perfect ending! Thank you!

[@johnoleary528]

How absolutely amazing 😊😊😊

[@irenewilson9323]

I’ve visited Sintra twice and found it intriguing and I really enjoyed listening to you both

[@jacquelinekohn2082]

Like a fairy tale adventure. Loved every beautiful moment. Thank you! ❤

[@gemstonesparkle7915]

I’ve seen the Quinta all over instagram, but I think that was the first time I saw the interiors, and I absolutely loved it! I got shocked to learn you didn’t quite liked it. I was going to say that it reminded me of Peles Castle in Romania or Neuschwanstein in Germany.

[@claudine1928]

This was a funny, informative tour in a stunning garden park with incredible grotto's. It also looks peace full because it was just the two of you. Beautifull place and vlog.

[@michaelt8727]

What an extraordinarily magical mystery tour--- exciting, scary and overwhelmingly adventurous--- not for the faint of heart! My own adventure crossing the Pacific to visit exotic tropical isles and lands down under pales in comparison.

[@jefferyrowley8873]

I think that the ceilings in the palace were beyond exquisite, but the other decorations do not meet the ceiling architecture Bravura!

[@kimberlyallen6296]

This property is so interesting, from he Templars, Masons, and the well garden so mysterious, next Tim BYO Port and snacks when doing the pond walks in the many stairs garden. Loved the well and waterfall. Portugal is famous for its beautiful carved wood and tile.

[@miareal1746]

You both ate very amazing people and that is why your vid are always so special! I have been in Sintra a few times but it never looked so special as it is now. 🙏🙏👏👏😀😀❤️❤️

[@sueholden3320]

The best vlog u have done ❤❤❤❤❤

[@rlund651]

Its like a cake that is too sweet. It’s just too much decorations. If I lived there I would have to step outside once in awhile to let my eyes rest. It is beautiful!

[@lyndaparker2969]

Amazing tour!! I so want to visit Portugal, just beautiful! Ollie your back yard...inspiration??

[@rose-marie7351]

wow! what a wonderful place, the garden! I could have watch you both for another 30 minutes in that garden! I didn't want it to finish yet!!! Thank you for sharing!

[@philiphughes3694]

OH NO!...I didn't want it to finish! Great FUN, as always. Thank you! Love from Bindi, from Oz!💃🕺🥳👏👏👏👏👏😂🥰🥰🥰🥰🐝🐝

[@joannedavidman6773]

Stephanie you're the perfect dress for the walk down to the well. Thank you for the education and laughter

[@hortensiawit211]

The ceiling looks like a empty box of Ferrero Rocher 😢

[@GRANDIPRTradeMarkAcceleartor]

Love the comment: NOT DANISH - so true. Although if you look at the Castles of Denmark they too are very decorative inside. I dare you to visit Rosenborg Slot for instance, it's a Bijou castle and very pretty indeed. Of course there are other castles too like Frederiksborg slot, Kronborg Slot, Christiansborg Slot, Egeskov Slot, Fredensborg Slot and naturally Amalienborg Slot. Will you take up the challenge? 😘😊

[@GoGoChateau]

What a blast!!!

[@kathleenbifulco8129]

That beautiful palace also had touches of art nouveau. Just fascinating to see.

[@PauloCarnaxide]

That wooden ceiling is utterly stunning!

[@lindagage7315]

Thanks for the laughs you two!

[@ludovica8221]

what a fantastic video you can be very proud of xxx

[@eileeng2492]

Great video

[@maureenhoward1056]

The most intriguing and might I say the most comical vlog the two of you have ever produced! 😅😅😅😅

[@susanweaver7878]

Stephanie, you are in a fairy story. This was an amazing vlog. And Oliver too. xxx

[@louisepeel7398]

Great Leap Forward with the editing but as usual fabulous content. This was wonderful x

[@dragonbry67]

One of my favorite places in Portugal! Hey, just some input: the background music is sometimes too loud and makes it hard to hear what you guys are saying.

[@monikaherrmann5799]

This is brilliant fun. I love it.

[@yvonnekleff3090]

Well, that was gold! I so enjoyed watching you two exploring, I had to giggle quite a few times. Awesome to see you two touching base with your inner child and the choice of music was brilliant 👏 More please :) x

[@tracyoneill1848]

What an amazing place ❤
