Palácio da Bolsa tickets and guided tours
Plan this visit around the tour language as well as the available time. A gap in your afternoon does not necessarily match the next suitable departure, so confirm both before committing. The guided route sets the pace through the rooms, leaving less freedom than a museum visit. Keep your next booking comfortably later, especially if you are walking uphill afterwards toward São Bento or the cathedral.
