Highlights
  • Magnificat Tours - Begin the day by meeting a private guide at your hotel in Lisbon and boarding your private vehicle to Fátima (pick up at your hotel or vacation rental door-to-door if accessible by our vehicles)
  • Valinhos Sanctuary - We start our day doing all your religious and souvenir shopping in a quick stop at Fatima’s shopping center so that you can have your objects blessed at mass in the Sanctuary.

We will continue our drive to Aljustrel in order to visit the Little Sheppards’ Houses and places of the Angel’s 2nd Apparition.

  • Valinhos Sanctuary - We will also visit Valinhos, where the Virgin appeared and Loca do Anjo – place of the Angel’s Apparitions. This is one of Fátima most sacred and peaceful places. If the weather and timing is good we will still walk up to the Plith of the Hunagrians doing some of the Stations of the Cross.

By now we will have to check how our pilgrims are! Most likely and after all the walking, we will be heading for a very deserved lunch! Our restaurant selections always include cozy traditional local restaurants.

  • Basilica de Nossa Senhora do Rosario de Fatima - The Chapel of Apparitions and the Basilica of the Holy Trinity are different places of worship within in the Sanctuary and allow visitors to tour. Don’t miss the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, which holds the tombs of the now-deceased children who witnessed the apparition - Saint Francisco Marto, Saint Jacinta Marto and sister Lucia.

  • Basilica de Nossa Senhora do Rosario de Fatima - From May to October there will always be an English official Mass at the Sanctuary at 3.30 PM - time for Mass is accounted as well as personal time at the Sanctuary for your petitions.

Fatima Tour - This tour was AMAZING!!!! Daniel was wonderful!!! This tour was unforgettable. Daniel took us to the homes of the three shepherd children and would explain everything that happened there. He took us to the spots where the angel appeared to the children in 1916. He even showed us from the top of a chapel the church the children were baptized and went to Sunday Mass. Growing up I my parents would tell me the story of Fatima and I also watched the movies but Daniel told us some things that we did not know about. He was very informational on Fatima. We never felt rushed by Daniel he would wait for us patiently. At the end of the day Daniel was kind enough to take us back to the gift shop that was our first stop at the beginning of the tour. Before we arrived at the Basilica Daniel took us to a lovely restaurant for lunch. I would recommend a Private tour to Fatima over a bus tour, it was well worth it and you learn more about the story on a private tour. If you can ask for Daniel, he made it unforgettable and we all enjoyed ourselves very much. This by far was my favorite tour and Thank You Daniel for making it so very special for me and my family!!!!!

Special Day in Fatima - We had such a special and spiritual day journeying to Fatima with Daniel. He met us right at our cruise ship. He was an amazing guide and knew so much about Fatima and Aljustrel. He took us to some very special and spiritual places that a larger tour group would not have been able to take us too. He also took us to a great restaurant in town for lunch that was not touristy and we had a very authentic Portuguese lunch. It was a day we will never forget!

A Day in Fatima - Daniel knew everything about Fátima that you could possibly imagine to ask. He took great pride in showing us different aspects and spots that most people didn’t know about. He also steered us away from the crowds which allowed us to have a more spiritual experience. We thank him immensely for that.

Great tour! Highly recommended! - Our driver/tour guide was very responsive and very good at anticipating our needs. The pace was just right, very relaxing and we were able visit all the places we wanted to visit. The local restaurant where the driver took us to for lunch was outstanding, by far the best meal we had on this trip!

Amazing experience! - Wonderful thorough experience! Daniel was very knowledgeable and gave us ample time to pray and visit the different locations. Being a full day experience was important for me and my mother as we wanted to experience all of Fatima. We went to Aljustrel first to see the sites of the apparitions of Mary and the angel as well as the homes of the children. Lunch was at a local family owned restaurant where we ate fresh fish that was so good! We then went to the shrine. Absolutely beautiful! We had Mass later in the day and had our rosaries etc blessed. For any believer, the full day tour really gives you the full experience of visiting Fatima and how life was back then for the children. Daniel was a wonderful guide! Highly recommend!

A wonderful way to experience Fatima - Daniela’s service, knowledge, kindness, storytelling and sense of humor made this a perfect tour from start to finish. My mom and I couldn’t have asked for more. Our day was a wonderful combination of learning and time for silence, peace and prayer. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone interested in experiencing all that Fatima has to share.

Warm, friendly, knowledgeable tour guide. - Daniel was our personal tour guide. He was right on time picking us up at 8am at our rented apartment in Lisbon...my daughter and son-in-law and 3 yr old grandson and me. He was warm and personable, and a font of knowledge all the way to Fatima, through the entire visit in the village and at the various shrine sites. He took us to a private shopping venue, and to a wonderful lunch restaurant. Daniel was there waiting for us right on time after the 3:30 pm Mass. The afternoon temperature reached 90 F and so unfortunately it was a long, hot ride back to Lisbon.
