From €377.10
There is more to Portugal than only Lisbon and Porto, go discover Fatima & Nazare in this full day private tour.


Duration: 8 hours

Your day on Portugal’s “Silver Coast” begins in the medieval walled town of Óbidos. Free time to explore the medieval village of Óbidos. After that, you visit the fishing town of Nazaré.

This picturesque village of Nazaré got its name from a statue of the Virgin Mary brought to the city from Nazareth by a monk in the 4th century. High above the town is Sitio, reached by a funicular that climbs 110m (360ft).

All of Nazaré can be seen from here, and across the square is the 17th century Nossa Senhora da Nazare Church with two Baroque belfries and 18th-century tiles depicting Biblical scenes. It also contains a revered image of Our Lady of Nazareth taken down to the sea in a traditional procession every September.

Nazaré is famous for its women who wear skirts with seven petticoats. Women would sit on the beach waiting for their fishermen to sail home. To keep warm in the face of a cold sea wind while staying covered, they’d wear several petticoats to fold layers around their backs and legs.
Today Nazaré is Portugal’s most famous fishing village, having always drawn visitors to its beach and genuinely colorful life.

Finally, you visit the pilgrimage town of Fátima. Join the pilgrims at one of the world’s holiest sites and pray at the Chapel of Apparitions. It was in the place of the Chapel that our Lady talked to the little shepherds. These pilgrimage sites were created after the 1917 apparition.
Free time to visit the sanctuary of Fatima.
