If you take an uber straight to the Pena palace, that would definitely be easiest (We drove from Lisbon and had to find parking in town and a way to get up the mountain because there is not much parking up there). I would get there 45-60 min before your scheduled time. Then you can walk down to the Moorish castle.

Inside the palace, you need take a 10 minutes uphill walk to reach the main building ( where your ticket will be checked. again).
