Join us on this intimate small group tour for a full-day journey starting from Lisbon's city centre, uncovering Portugal’s most sacred, historic, and scenic treasures.
Begin in Fátima, one hour drive from Lisbon, a profound center of Catholic devotion and one of the world’s most significant pilgrimage sites. Here, visit the Shrine of Fátima and the Chapel of Apparitions, where the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared in 1917.
Discover the beautiful Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, where the tombs of the shepherds rest, and enjoy free time for personal reflection or prayer in this deeply spiritual setting.
Next, continue to the awe-inspiring Batalha Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Gothic masterpiece built to honor Portugal's victory at the Battle of Aljubarrota. Wander through its impressive Church of Santa Maria da Vitória and marvel at the intricate stonework, vibrant stained glass, and stunning vaulted ceilings that captivate history and architecture enthusiasts alike.
The journey then leads to Nazaré, a picturesque fishing village that perfectly embodies Portugal’s coastal charm. Take in the colorful boats, sandy shores, and unique maritime culture. Stop at Sítio da Nazaré, a dramatic clifftop with panoramic views over the Atlantic, and visit the Praia do Norte lookout, where colossal waves form over the Nazaré Canyon, drawing surfers from around the world.
You’ll have free time for lunch, with our guide recommending some top-rated local restaurants to try authentic dishes.
Finally, step back in time in Óbidos, a medieval village surrounded by 14th-century walls. Stroll its cobblestone streets lined with whitewashed homes, colorful flowers, and charming shops offering local crafts and the famous Ginjinha de Óbidos, served in edible chocolate cups.
