Overview
On this full-day tour of the West Region of Portugal, you have the opportunity to visit a magnificent medieval town, and also a fishing village. We've decided to include in this tour a visit to Fátima, the religious capital of Portugal, and an essential place to visit for many people. However, if religion doesn't interest you, you can visit both Batalha and Alcobaça instead, both symbols of a beautiful architecture and cultural heritage.
Pick-up is valid for any location within the city of Lisbon ...Read more ▼
Itinerary
Basilica de Nossa Senhora do Rosario de Fatima
Arriving at Fátima, the “Altar of the World”, where Our Lady is said to have appeared to three young shepherds. You shall go across Central Square, visiting the most significant spots (such as the original Chapel of the Apparitions and the main Basilica where we have the tombs of the three young shepherds).
Now, you also have a new contemporary church, the Holy Trinity Church, which is considered the 4th biggest Catholic Church in the world. You can also have a look at the old countryside houses where Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta (the three little shepherds of Fátima), were born, in the early 20th century, in the nearby village of Aljustrel.
1 hour
Obidos Village
Óbidos is a beautiful small medieval town, still surrounded by the old city walls. It is famous for its very well preserved atmosphere of a traditional Portuguese town, where the whitewashed houses are very carefully decorated with lovely colored flowerbeds.
This village used to be a gift from our kings to their queens across the centuries! Walking in the town center and climbing up to the ramparts you’ll enjoy incredible views. Before leaving don’t forget to try the famous cherry liqueur in a chocolate cup, the Ginjinha!
1 hour
Praia da Nazare
Nazaré is a truly genuine fishermen’s town, where even nowadays many elderly local women hang around in their traditional costume: the famous skirt of Nazaré and its 6 petticoats. You shall go to Sítio (top of the cliff perching over the beach) and enjoy the most adorable panorama of the town and adjacent coastline. Don’t leave before finding out every detail about the local legend that gives the town its biblical name.
1 hour
Batalha Monastery
Besides being a World Heritage site since 1983, the Monastery of Batalha overpowers the small town, due to its dimensions and exquisite late Gothic decoration. Built between the 14th and the 16th centuries, its construction was made after a vow from a Portuguese king, John I, to the Virgin Mary before a battle against the Spaniards.
The vow was accomplished, with the victory of the Portuguese in the Aljubarrota battle in 1385, and this masterpiece was raised. Inside you will have the opportunity to admire the artistic tombs of some of the most important Portuguese characters at that time, including John I or Prince Henry the Navigator, the “Father of the Portuguese Discoveries”
1 hour
Monastery of Alcobaca
Alcobaça is famous for its 12th century Monastery which is not only a beautiful early Gothic architectural example, but also accommodates the monuments in honour of King D. Pedro I and D. Inês de Castro (characters of a real romantic Portuguese story from the 14th century, very similar to “Romeo and Juliet”), made in magnificent stone handwork.
The monastery is also classified by UNESCO. After visiting the building, you certainly won’t resist strolling across the lovely town center, between two water streams, which a long time ago helped name the area: Alcoa and Baça.

Knowledgeable and attentive guide. Great tour about 10 hours long. Try and find a less touristy lunch spot, as it is your choice, and maybe that would speed things along. Monastaries were amazing, as well as the beach in Nazare. Top notch!

Outstanding! Pedro, our guide was excellent. We saw everything in the itinerary in a very relax, unhurried way. Our driver was very good and courteous. Highly recommended.

Published on Oct, 2010
The four of us enjoyed a wonderful day in the Portuguese countryside. We were picked up on time by a very knowledgeable and personable guide. Our first stop was Fatima.
We spent a couple of hours here and then proceeded to a world heritage site where we saw the tomb of Prince Henry the Navigator. For lunch we stopped at the lovely seaside village of Nazare. From here we toured a medieval walled city . We all agreed that this day was the highlight of our trip to Portugal.This is the only way to see these sights especially if you have a group of four or more not only is it economical but you get to see so much more of Portugal..
