Q:
parquesdesintra pt / en - problem entering US phone # on this website to buy tickets (can't put the real link in this question but that is the site). Anyone else have this problem? It's a required field on the site. Thanks.
A:
I would also recommend just trying again. There was not a huge line there when I went anyway, so I think if all else fails it's okay to buy the tickets there.
Q:
We are planning to visit with our 18th old toddler. How easy is it to get to castle with the little one with his stroller? Thanks

This is no place to take a stroller! There is a circular staircase of 33 steps to go up. A few long staircases to go down. I strongly advise you not to take a stroller! You won’t be happy and …

Thanks everyone again. I tried to order the ticket online, but it fails with 2 different credit cards. Also, there is a bug on the website that don't allow 10 digit (US) phone number. If you enter 10 digits (not including the +1 country code), the website will shrink it to 9 digits??!! Amazing....

Q:
At what time does this Palace close on SUNDAYs? I've read some conflicting info, and I'm trying to figure out if I'd be able to visit the palace arriving 12:30p on a Sunday in September. Even if it closes at 2PM, is that enough time? 1.5 hrs?
A:
Yes, for sure. 1h30 will be enough. Early mornings and late afternoon will help to avoid queues.
