Fatima and Obidos private day tour
A day dedicated to spirituality and medieval times. We start with Fatima where you will be visiting the famous Shrine. It is one of the largest pilgrimage centers in the world, built around the place where, in 1917, the Virgin Mary appeared to three shepherds. After visiting the Basilica where the three seers are buried, the chapel of apparitions and the modern Church of the Holy Trinity, we will have some free time to pray or attend mass celebration (optional). Shortly afterwards, the tour goes to Valinhos, the small village where the three young shepherds were born, and we will visit their homes, having the chance to see what the region’s houses looked like at the beginning of the XX century.
From here we will depart to Obidos, a charming medieval village within defense walls. Here you can taste the typical liqueur of the region, the “Ginja”, served in a dark chocolate cup. Obidos is the best example of medieval villages in Portugal. As we enter its walls, we travel back in time, as we walk the ancient stone alleys, facing houses with their white washed secular facades, the ever-active trade and the countless churches built over the centuries.
Whether you choose a single-day or a multi-day tour, you will always be driven in the comfort of our Mercedes-Benz vehicles and escorted by our certified professional driver-guides.
