About this activity

Visit Fatima as a pilgrim, not a tourist !

Tread in the footsteps of religious pilgrims during this private full-day tour to Fátima from Lisbon.

One of the most important Catholic pilgrimages sanctuaries in Europe, Fátima was a small town where, in 1917, three small children saw the Virgin Mary. Tour the homes where the children lived, visit the Sanctuary and Chapel of Apparitions, and see the Basilica of the Holy Trinity.
