Fatima - Option 2 from 5 (Choose a maximum of 3) is one of the world’s most significant Catholic pilgrimage destinations, renowned for the Marian apparitions of 1917, when three shepherd children reported visions of the Virgin Mary.

At the heart of the town lies the Sanctuary of Fátima, home to the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, the Chapel of the Apparitions, and the strikingly modern Basilica of the Holy Trinity.

Had a wonderful experience with our travel advisor Pauola! She guided us to Evoira. Brought us to different historical sites off the beaten path like the Knights of Templar temple. The cork forest excursion was amazing. She is someone I plan to stay in touch with because of her passion and graceful nature.
Thank you so much for such a heartfelt review! It is truly rewarding to hear that Paula helped create "lifetime memories" during your journey through Portugal. She is indeed a passionate professional, and we are thrilled that her graceful nature and deep knowledge made such an impression on you. We are especially glad you enjoyed the "off the beaten path" sites. Évora and the Knights Templar history are some of our favorite secrets to share, and the cork forests offer a unique glimpse into the soul of the Alentejo landscape that many travelers miss. I will make sure to pass your beautiful words along to Paula. She will be touched to know you plan to stay in touch—that is the highest compliment a guide can receive! We look forward to welcoming you back to Portugal soon. Best regards, Hugo

Very happy with Pedro and the sightseeing experience along the trip from Lisbon to Porto. Pedro was extremely knowledgeable and his vehicle very clean and comfortable.
Had a wonderful two days with Manuel. On the first day, he drove us from Porto to Lisbon with a few stops (Aveiro, Nazare, Obidos) and added a few non-touristy places that were fantastic. On the second day he took us to Sintra and surrounding areas (including more small non touristy spots) He was able to come into the Pena Palace with us, and we got so much more out of it, then had we gone just ourselves . Manuel completely customized our two days to our family. He is very knowledgeable on Portuguese history, very entertaining and overall went above and beyond.
