How Tours Work Here

The Palace Guides You In; We Help With the Rest

Every visit inside the Fronteira Palace is already a guided tour, run by the family foundation and included in the €17 ticket. So you do not need an outside guide to see the rooms: pick a time in your language and go.

What a booked tour adds is the journey. Benfica is out of the centre, and two private tours on GetYourGuide collect you from your hotel and combine Fronteira with other sights: Queluz, Pena and Cabo da Roca in one, Jerónimos and Tram 28 in the other.

The other cards are things we'd pair with it: an azulejo painting class, Benfica's stadium three metro stops away, and two more royal palaces.

How to Choose

Which Option Is Right for You?

You have half a day and like tiles

Book an English slot with the foundation (€17), take the metro to Jardim Zoológico, and stay for the garden. In the afternoon, try the azulejo painting workshop and make your own.

You want Sintra and Fronteira in one day

The private Royal Palaces tour covers Fronteira, Queluz, Pena and Cabo da Roca with a driver-guide. It solves the transport problem that puts most people off Fronteira.

Travelling with football fans

Pair the palace with the Luz Stadium tour. Both are on the blue metro line, three stops apart.
