A Day in Fátima, Batalha, Nazaré and Óbidos

Discover Fátima, Batalha, Nazaré and Óbidos on an unforgettable tour from Lisbon

There are several factors that make this tour unmissable. Factor one: we run the serious risk of falling in love with every different place we visit. Factor two: it includes a visit to one of the most charming medieval villages in the country — Óbidos, with its walls, cobblestone streets, and ginjinha served in a chocolate cup. Factor three: we pass through two sacred places in this country: Nazaré and Fátima.

Fátima is the centre of the Catholic faith and a place of pilgrimage for people from all over the world. Its Sanctuary — which received Pope Francis in 2017, on the occasion of the centenary of the apparitions — is a must-visit, regardless of one’s faith. The serene and symbolic atmosphere of the place speaks for itself.

In Batalha, the majestic Monastery of Santa Maria da Vitória, a UNESCO World Heritage site, stands as an impressive testament to Portuguese Gothic architecture. A place where history and art come together, making every step a journey into the past.

In Nazaré, the sacred is divided between the sea and faith. It is a place of worship for surfers, thanks to the gigantic waves of Praia do Norte, which have challenged world records. Here, you can also visit the lighthouse and the famous promontory where those impressive walls of water are formed. At the same time, it is a traditional fishing village, with fish drying in the sun and stories of generations tied to the sea.

And in Óbidos, get ready to travel back in time: between medieval walls, narrow alleys, and colourful houses, this village is a true living postcard — the kind you’ll want to keep forever.
