Through Tiqets we booked a tour with Tugatrips. Elber was our guide and he was simply amazing; very knowledgeable about the history of Portugal, the castle and basically anything we asked him. Also very attentive and his English was impeccable for a non-native speaker. He made the tour a very positive and memorable one for us! Booking a tour with guide I strongly recommend if you not want to stand in line for your tickets and if you want to make the visit more than just an enjoyable walk around.
