There is no denying that Pena Palace is an amazing place, absolutely worth a visit while in Sintra.  The queue to get in can be less delightful.  Did you know you can jump the queue by buying your ticket at the Park E Bike ticket counter in the Clock Tower?

Save time, hassle and stress by getting your tickets before getting to the parks and palaces you want to visit. 

At the Clock Tower, we don't only rent electric bicycles, you can also get entrance tickets to Pena Palace, Moorish Castle, Monserrate, Capuchos and the Chalet da Condessa D'Edla - with the shortest waiting time of any of the park ticket offices.

Next time you are in Sintra, make the most of your limited time in town and beat the queues by starting your day out at the Clock Tower - don't forget to ask about family and Facebook friend discounts.

Following the spring showers, all the main streams and waterways in the Sintra hills fill up and the result is a wonderful array of waterfalls all throughout the Sintra parks.

There is no better place to observe cascading water than the lovely park and palace of Monserrate.  The pride of place is taken by Beckford's waterfall, just as you enter the park grounds.

The rain also ensures that all the lakes and reservoirs are at their full splendor, making this one of the best times of year to visit - hop on a Park E Bike and see just what we mean!
