About this experience

Travel to Fátima throughout Ribatejo farmland. Experience to live as a pilgrim in the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fatima,a legendary and important Christian place located at Cova da Iria. The city has become one of the most important international destinations for religious tourism, receiving approximately 6 million visitors a year. In Fatima we will have time to visit all the important places that make this Sanctuary such an emblematic place.

After lunch, which although not included our guide does not hesitate to recommend some good places, our visit goes to Valinhos, where the 3 children saw the Angel of Portugal while they were herding their flocks. We head to Hungarian Calvary, ending our visit to Fatima at Sister Lucia's House (entrance included).
