About this activity
Meet your private driver in Lisbon and travel to Fátima during this private 5-hour tour. Enjoy the driver's undivided attention on this totally private tour.
One of the most important religious pilgrimages in Europe, Fátima is the site where, in 1917, three small children named Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco claimed they saw an apparition of the Virgin Mary. Visit the home where the three children lived, the Chapel of Apparitions where the sighting occurred, and the now-famous Our Lady of Fátima Sanctuary (Nossa Senhora de Fátima Santuario).
Throughout the day, learn interesting historical information from the driver about Fátima and its importance in the Catholic world. This once-sleepy small town is now visited by over four million travelers every year who come to see the site and pay their respects. See the tombstones of two of the children and, if desired, attend a mass at the sanctuary. The driver will return you to Lisbon at the end of the tour.

Great tour, excellent service. Easy to set up a tour under 24 hours notice, and everything was smooth. Would highly recommend! Thank you!
Tiago was an excellent tour guide for our 1/2 day tour of Fátima. He is extremely knowledgeable of the historical events that took place in 1917 and the significance of the event on Portugal. Would highly recommend his services for any tour.
Our driver/guide, Gonzales was great! Very good English, very friendly and personable. Dropped us off at entrance of Fátima shrine and picked us up when we were ready.. thank you!
We were picked up as described and on time. We got to Fatima, gone through what we needed to do, even got a bit of time at mass. We event got to have time to see a descendant of one of the children who saw Mother Mary as well as go out of our way to shop. The driver was very nice, speaks English well, and quite accommodating. Highly recommended.
This is such a fantastic option for anyone wanting to get to Fatima and back in a timely manner and with only a short time to spare. The approx. 4.5-5 hour round trip is amazing. Tiago, our driver and guide was fantastic, very accommodating, knowledgeable and informative and friendly too. Wi-fi on the vehicle was superb - faster than I have back home in SA !!! This tour is focussed only on Fatima and for those wanting to go to other nearby places then you should do the full day tour instead. A very comfortable journey coupled with the being on that hallowed ground in Fatima make for a very fulfilling experience overall. Left in the morning on a weekday so made it well in time for a visit to the factory where they make all the memorabilia, then to the homes of Lucia, Francisco and Jacinta and finally on to the shrine to attend Mass have some snacks and head back to Lisbon. Definitely something worth doing when visiting Lisbon.
