Fátima Experience – Half Day Tour

Discover Fátima, one of Europe’s most important pilgrimage destinations, on a private half-day tour tailored to your pace and preferences. Avoid crowded group excursions and enjoy a more personal, meaningful experience as you explore this sacred site with the comfort of a professional driver who will share valuable insights and tips along the way.

We recommend starting with a visit to the Chapel of the Apparitions, the spiritual heart of the Sanctuary. Here, you’ll see the Crown of Our Lady of Fátima, which holds one of the bullets from the 1981 assassination attempt on Pope John Paul II. Learn about the moving story of the Marian apparitions of 1917, when the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared to three shepherd children—Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta—and visit their tombs inside the Basilica of Fátima.

Continue your journey at the Church of the Holy Trinity, a modern masterpiece that stands in striking contrast to the historic chapel and basilica. As you explore the sanctuary grounds, don’t miss the opportunity to see a fragment of the Berlin Wall, donated by a Portuguese emigrant living in Germany at the time of the wall’s fall—a symbol of peace and hope.

If time permits, you may also take part in a mass or religious ceremony, creating a truly profound and spiritual experience before returning to Lisbon.

This private tour offers flexibility and comfort, allowing you to deeply connect with the spiritual essence of Fátima.
