Embark on a private spiritual journey with hotel pickup. The curated visit to the main Sanctuary and the Chapel of Apparitions offers both contemplation and historical depth.
About this tour
Fátima is one of the most important Catholic pilgrimage sites in the world. In 1917, three shepherd children reported a series of apparitions of the Virgin Mary here, and today millions of pilgrims visit the Sanctuary every year. Whether you come in faith or out of curiosity, it is a deeply moving place.
This private trip gives you time for quiet reflection, without the rush of a coach tour. Your driver takes you from your Lisbon hotel to the Sanctuary, where you visit the Chapel of the Apparitions and the two basilicas, and then to Aljustrel, the small village where the children lived.
