In the city of Fátima, there is one of the most famous Roman Catholic Sanctuaries in the world, located just one and an half hour away from Lisbon. A place of devotion that attracts millions of pilgrims and curious people every year. During this tour, I will give you more details about the history of the place, the context and how the apparitions of the Virgin Mary occurred, as well as who were the 3 children who witnessed this phenomenon. Throughout this tour, you will visit the small village of Aljustrel, where the 3 little shepherds lived and you will have time to see the Sanctuary of Fátima and its many attractions.

We will leave from Lisbon and after approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes of travel, we will arrive at Fátima, where one of the most famous Roman Catholic Sanctuaries in the world is located.
