Do not buy the combo fast track entry ticket from Headout, it's a complete waste of money! We bought it because it was supposed to get us entry to Quinta da Regaleir as well but did not, and there was supposed to be transport as well but there was no one to ask about it, no one in sight ever, so we used Uber. If you arrive early for the openeing, as we did, there is no need for the fast track anyway! Pena Palace is worth the visit but as for Quinta da Regaleir, it was underwhelming, I think I would have preffered seeing the Monserrate Palace.

The Pena Palace was well worth seeing and the park is also very impressive. We arrived 15 minutes before our timeslot as indicated. We didn't like the fact that we then had to wait in the blazing sun until a few minutes after the start, although there was a shady courtyard as a waiting area. I would also have liked to simply have the tickets all pdf instead of having to download an app onto my cell phone.

Beauty of the castle and surrounding gardens. What I didn't enjoy was the slowness of the constant lines of people and the number of times o had to present my ticket. That seemed unnecessary

It was great to skip the line! Saved us at least 30 minutes. Wish it included the bus ride up the hill. The processing of credit cards for the bus ticket took a long time.

The Palace is lovely. Lots of architecture and history. There does need to be better signage when walking up the trail. (Can be a bit confusing). Also the walk up is very hard and takes a good hour.
