My brother, friend & I did the Stadium & Museum tour. First of all the staff in the entire stadium was extremely kind, friendly and very welcoming. We absolutely loved it. Our guide was Joao and man, he's awesome. Extremely cool & very informative about the club & gave us details we didn't even know about.

I really enjoyed the clear and informative guide. The stadium was fantastic, and it was exciting to walk around the museum and see the history of the stadium and Portuguese soccer. I was thrilled to be able to go onto the pitch, see the life and passion that goes into maintaining it, see the stands and players' bench up close, and see the Benfica mascots! Thank you, thank you, thank you, it was pure excitement! Osvaldo Codazzi

Great deal, the card was picked up at the airport. Immediate transport from the airport to St. George's Church. The bus is included, as is the entrance fee. There are a few additional attractions with free admission, including a ride on tram 28. I recommend it

Really great, no regrets. I got the 72-hour pass and made the most of it, following the 3-day itinerary on the website. You'll be glad you did.

Buying the tickets in advance best way to go, as purchasing tickets at the venue required standing in line at a booth far away from the entry. The Monestary at St Jeronimos defintely worth seeing!

Portugal never dissapoints and Sintra was no different! Just a 40 minute train ride from Lisbon, these beautiful sights were just breathtaking. I've never been so immersed in beauty, the Castle of the Moors and Quinta da Regaleira were beyond beautiful. You need to devote 2-3 hours to walking each because there's so much to take in. We even went on a rainy day and it was still just stunning, we were encapsulated in a cloud at one point which was really cool too. Highly recommend both places and Sintra in general!
