It was very easy and quick to get in, without queuing! And the castle receptionist herself took our cell phone and we were released in seconds. It was excellent!

Advanced ticket purchase was a highlight. Audio commentary was informative & interesting curating the visit around the grounds of the castle well. However, upon purchasing, we were unable to download the audio for each person even after folloiwng the instructions and using the shared links provided.

We really enjoyed the St Jorge Castle. The online ticket buying process was super easy and we had a barcode within a couple minutes. We didn't have to wait in line at the castle, we just showed the barcode to the person at the entrance. It was VERY NICE!

I love this type of tour bus. It was difficult, however, because it was difficult to find exactly where the bus stops. The locations are not clearly marked. We had to walk a lot and ask several different people in order to find the pick up places.
