I enjoyed the drive and the tour of the factory that supplies Virgin Mary statues and other religious items. Seeing Fatima was an important goal for me while travelling in Portugal. The time provided even though 1 hour 15 minutes - it just isn’t long enough. The driver was great and very pleasant. Just wished we had more time. If you want to enjoy a mass - I think 2 hours is needed.
