Travel to Óbidos, a picture-perfect medieval village steeped in history.

I enjoyed the free time and took great pictures.
It was a great experience the tour guy was very informative and pleasant he also was an excellent driver
Do not book this operator. They sent me an email confirming, then charged me and then sent me a note saying they were looking forward to the tour etc….and at 11:04 pm the night before they cancelled. If I wouldn’t have checked email, I would have shown up. And because of them, a bunch of other things had to be moved around. So you don’t know your going to cancel a tour until 11:00 pm the night before!? What a joke! It was too late to grab another tour. And the note was ridiculous.,..see below. It’s a “bummer”? Be professional you idiots, it’s more than a bummer. And you didn’t even return my messages. Your negligence caused a domino effect and more $. Booking canceled Tour from Lisbon: Obidos, Nazaré and Fátima Small Group It’s a bummer, but the tour operator for Tour from Lisbon: Obidos, Nazaré and Fátima Small Group had to cancel your booking. Good news: a full refund of USD $72.09 will be credited. DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM! It isn’t caused they canceled, it’s how and not returning messages.
I would highly recommend this day trip tour as it provided a chance to visit a number of places outside Lisbon . Fátima was very unexpected while the natural beauty of Nazare was amazing. The history of Obidos was so interesting making the 3 locations quite a contrast to each other. Philippe was an excellent driver and tour guide 👍
Our Fatima, Nazare and Obidos tour was outstanding thanks to Tiago (Modern Tours) our tour guide and driver.
A very interesting and enjoyable trip. Pedro our guide was friendly amd very knowledgeable. I highly recomend Pedro as your guide. Thank you Pedro.
The weather was quite rough but our guide, Tiago, was fantastic. He went out of his way to give us the best experience possible. He made reservations for our lunch at Nazare at a fish/seafood restaurant just across from the fish market. We had grilled sea bass which was excellent. The waiter made a great wine recommendation since I was not familiar with Portuguese wine. The white wine he recommended was also excellent. We learned a lot about Fatima from Tiago. Also enjoyed Ginjinha, a sour cherry cordial served in chocolate cup, in Obidos.
Great places visited in a single day, driver is knowledgeable. Highly recommend. Even when the tour didn’t meet minimum persons, it was not cancelled.
Very positive experience. We traveled on a Saturday and, perhaps for this reason, the roads were clear and the distances well calibrated. Comfortable van 9 seats and organization in a small group. The guide Matias was very prepared and super kind and attentive. Fatima very touching. Beautiful nazarus. Obidos very characteristic.
A good day! We were picked up in Lisbon and instantly felt warmly welcomed by our guide. He was fun, entertaining and informative. He gave us lots of information on the history of Lisbon and at each stop. We particularly liked the village of Obidos. It is Medieval and decorated so cute for Christmas, even had hand-roasted chestnuts and mulled Christmas wine. I was so very excited about Nazare and the potential for big waves. Not today 🙃 oh well... now I can at least say I have been to the location of the worlds largest waves. We had a n8ce lunch of fresh seafood. I would recommend.
