What to expect

  1. Basilica de Nossa Senhora do Rosario de Fatima
    1h
    Get comfortable in an air-conditioned vehicle as you start your journey toward the town of Fátima, a once-sleepy rural village that became an important pilgrimage site when three shepherd children reported apparitions of the Virgin Mary in 1917. Visit the Sanctuary of Fatima, a basilica that honors the apparition and attracts millions of Catholic pilgrims every year who go to pay their respects to the shrine
  2. Batalha Monastery
    30m
    Next, visit the 14th-century Batalha Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that illustrates the rich artistic heritage of the late 1300s. Discover the impressive royal burial site at the basilica’s Founder’s Chapel, where King João I, Queen Philippa of Lancaster and their son Prince Henry the Navigator were buried. Note that we only visit the main church area, which is free of charge. To visit the whole structure (which we don't have much time), cloisters included, an additional charge is required (to be paid by the client directly to the local ticket office). NOT INCLUDED IF YOU CHOOSE THE FÁTIMA PILGRIMAGE & ÓBIDOS OPTION
  3. 20m
    A stop to enjoy the old town of Nazaré, site of miracles, visions and one of the best views of the Portuguese coastline. NOT INCLUDED IF YOU CHOOSE THE FÁTIMA PILGRIMAGE & ÓBIDOS OPTION
  4. Praia da Nazare
    1h 30m
    Take a short break for lunch (own expense) in Nazaré, a quaint fishing town famous for its variety of restaurants and cafes. A popular summer retreat for the Portuguese, the village offers an interesting insight into local life. Short stop at the Nazaré cliffs to see the ocean views. NOT INCLUDED IF YOU CHOOSE THE FÁTIMA PILGRIMAGE & ÓBIDOS OPTION
  5. Obidos Village
    1h
    Finally, make your way to the medieval village of Óbidos. Founded in 208 BC, Óbidos is commonly known in Portugal as the 'wedding present town', as it was a gift from King Dinis to Queen Isabel on their wedding day in 1282. Follow your guide to one of the numerous wine shops and sample the Ginja liqueur, and then enjoy free time to explore the village’s medieval fortress, narrow streets, colorful houses and Gothic doorways and windows decorated with flowerpots and dazzling tiles. Grab a snack or browse around the tiny shops that offer a varied collection of beautiful handmade ceramic art before making your way back to Lisbon.
