Il programma nel dettaglio

Once in Fatima, you will experience life as a pilgrim while visiting the Sanctuary, one of the most important Christian Pilgrimage sites in the world with approximately 5 million visitors each year.



Stop by the Chapel of the Apparitions. This is the true heart of the sanctuary: the exact place where the Virgin Mary appeared to the 3 little children is marked with a marble Column and Her image – Our Lady of Fátima. Take a look inside the Basilica of Nossa Senhora do Rosário where you may find the tombs of all 3 children: Francisco, Jacinta, and Lúcia.



Discover the stunning 14th century Batalha Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site since the 1980s. Built by the initiative of D. João I of Portugal, in the sequence of a promise he made to Our Lady of Victory, should She choose to favor the Portuguese in the battle of Aljubarrota (1385) against the army of Castilla.



Take a photo at the top of the Nazaré cliffs with stunning views over the Atlantic Ocean and hear about the famous legend of D. Fuas Roupinho. The village maintains a strong and long tradition of fishing activity since its origin. It has an enormous variety of fish and seafood restaurants. Relax at lunch (not included) with a great variety of regional restaurants.



Enjoy the sea breeze as we drive along the Atlantic coast on our way to the next stop in Óbidos. Fall in love with this romantic medieval village founded more than 2000 years ago. Its winding streets and medieval structures, castle walls, and handicraft shops, all make this stop the highlight of the trip for many people. Finish with the tasting of traditional Ginja (cherry) liqueur in a chocolate cup before heading back to Lisbon.
