Itinéraire
Cette fantastique excursion privée part de Lisbonne, et à une heure de route, nous arriverons dans le sanctuaire de Fatima. Nous y trouverons trois lieux d’intérêt où vous pourrez assister à une messe (facultative) à la chapelle des apparitions, la première chapelle construite immédiatement après les apparitions et occupant une place importante, non pas par sa taille ou sa grandeur, mais par son emplacement, pratiquement au centre du sanctuaire. La basilique Notre-Dame du Rosaire, construite en 1928 dans le style néo-baroque, abrite aujourd'hui les tombeaux des enfants, mais aussi celle de sœur Lucie décédée en 2005, et la basilique de la Sainte-Trinité, construite en 2007 avec plus de 8 000 places assises et d’une surface de 40 000 m² a été conçue par l'architecte grec Alexandros Tombazis, une église moderne et assez imposante.
La pierre nue aux tonalités chaudes fait du monastère de Batalha un point de repère important de l'histoire du Portugal, dans une période de réaffirmation de son indépendance en Castille (Espagne) Un édifice de style gothique tardif, résultat de la gestion avisée des plus grands maîtres portugais et internationaux, de son maître fondateur Afonso Domingues au génial Huguet, se terminant dans le « style manuélin » de Mateus Fernandes, la chapelle du fondateur et les « chapelles imparfaites » au Panthéon des rois et des princes marqué par la scolastique des frères dominicains représentant la Cité Céleste.
Nazaré est un village pictural au passé intense, bien représenté dans le patrimoine architectural, avec de nombreuses églises et maisons traditionnelles qui apportent une atmosphère très pittoresque. C'est le premier lieu de culte au Portugal. Récemment, le phénomène du canon Nazaré, vagues phénoménales, a rendu Nazaré célèbre dans le monde entier. En 2013, le surfeur américain McNamara a battu le record du monde en surfant une vague d'une hauteur d’une trentaine de mètres. Autre curiosité : les « sept jupes » des femmes de Nazaré, qui les montrent fièrement aux visiteurs.
À Obidos (site classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO), nous remonterons dans le temps, à mesure que nous nous promenons à travers les magnifiques ruelles étroites le long de vieilles maisons peintes en blanc. Nous nous promènerons entre ses murs en imaginant comment était la période médiévale. Obidos a été utilisé comme un cadeau de mariage de D. Dinis à son épouse D. Isabel, le village a été intégré à la Casa das Rainhas, éteinte seulement en 1834, et la plupart des reines portugaises y sont venues, laissant une empreinte incontestable. D. Catarina a ordonné la construction de l'aqueduc et des fontaines.

We had an unforgettable experience! The private tour exceeded our expectations. We were fortunate to be guided by Diogo, who was very kind, professional, knowledgeable and patient. I wish our trip was a bit longer to be able to book other destinations with them.
Great personalized tour of Fatima, Nazare and Obidos. Tips: Have a sense of where you want to spend your time. Nazare is a beach town with some great views - not so much to see otherwise, but a good lunch stop. One could spend 1/2 day just at Fatima, especially if you are Catholic. Obidos is cool to see - you could linger there in one of the bars or restaurants, otherwise an hour unless you want to do a lot of shopping. We had Pedro as our guide - he was very courteous and personable!
We are coming back from doing this tour feeling quite disappointed as we have been unlucky to meet a guide (Jose is the name by the way)nothing professional. First of all, he did not speak fluent Spanish and we had a hard time understanding his explanations. It was dry, not pleasant and not helpful. We had to get the information from him at the beginning and in the end we ended up desisting from asking and searching the information online. We really could have done this tour on our own account and now almost 500 euros as it only served as a driver (we went to Lisbon in our own car by the way) and also creating an unpleasant atmosphere in all aspects. Another thing that disappointed me is that in Obidos you are sold the story of typical cherry liquor tastings but you have to pay for it, not as in other tours that offer you typical sweets like in Sintra and Belém. We feel quite conned with this experience and will never book with this company again obviously. A dire experience.
Hola Anabel, Le agradecemos su comentario, aunque lamentamos profundamente leer su decepción. Nos entristece su valoración, pero creemos que para ser justos con la realidad, el relato debería incluir todos los hechos y no solo la parte desagradable. Como es de su conocimiento, el guía asignado originalmente era otra persona. Lamentablemente, esa misma noche se sintió indispuesto con lo que resultó ser una gastroenterite aguda. Hicimos todo lo posible para no cancelar su viaje a última hora y evitar la tristeza que supone perder un día de vacaciones, por lo que buscamos un sustituto de urgencia para que pudieran realizar el recorrido. En cuanto al coste del tour, es importante señalar que las plataformas de gestión de servicios tienen comisiones que se reflejan en el precio final. Sin embargo, lo más importante y que no menciona en su crítica, es que usted no pagó absolutamente nada. Ante su malestar expresado mediante los mensajes que nos envió mientras aún estaba en el coche, decidimos restituirle el 100% del valor del tour ese mismo día. Nuestra prioridad era su bienestar y, aunque el servicio no cumplió sus expectativas debido a este contratiempo de salud de nuestro equipo, actuamos con total responsabilidad y honestidad financiera de inmediato. Sentimos que la experiencia no fuera la esperada, pero nuestra respuesta ante la adversidad fue siempre pensar en ustedes. Atentamente,
I highly recommend at trip to Fatima. Video and pictures do not show how impressive it is. We had a great tour guide.
Thank you so much for the recommendation, Lisa! We couldn't agree more—Fátima has a unique atmosphere and a scale that truly needs to be experienced in person to be fully understood. It is one of those places where the energy and the history of the Sanctuary go far beyond what any video or photo can capture. I will be sure to share your kind words with your guide. They take great pride in sharing the stories of Fátima, the Gothic beauty of Batalha, the giant waves of Nazaré, and the medieval charm of Óbidos with our guests. It was a pleasure having you with us in Portugal!
Great experience all around. Manuel was a perfect guide, we learned a lot. He is also a safe and efficient driver, we were comfortable throughout the visit. There was no rush, despite the highly saturated program. We saw more than we expected.
Thank you so much for the fantastic review, Vahan! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a "perfect" experience with us. Manuel is indeed a top professional, and we will be sure to share your kind words with him. It makes us very proud to know that his knowledge helped you learn so much about our history and that his driving made you feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. The itinerary covering Fátima, Batalha, Nazaré, and Óbidos is indeed quite a "saturated" program, as you mentioned, so we are especially glad that Manuel managed the timing perfectly to ensure you never felt rushed and even saw more than expected. Portugal has so many hidden gems, and it was a pleasure showing some of them to you. We hope to see you again soon! Best regards,
This was our best tour on our vacation. Paula called me via WhatsApp a few minutes prior to our meeting time to let us know that she was at the end of the Gangplank and gave us her description. She was there waiting and immediately escorted us to her vehicle. Our small group was on the road prior to any ship excursion even made it to shore. She was detailed on our full itinerary and timeframes at each location. Our trip to Fatima was fast and fantastic. We got there quickly and managed to see everything before the Ship guided tours arrived. Beating the crowds from the ship made seeing everything quick and easy. She never had to rush us and kept sharing facts and history about the locations we were visiting. I wish I can give her a higher rating here. Keeping our group together was like herding cats at times, but she did it all with a smile. When our tour was completed, she monitored traffic and knew all the roads. She got us back to our ship with plenty of time to spare. We came to Lisbon looking for a tour guide. We ended up leaving a close Friend behind. We love you Paula and hope to see you again in our future travels to Portugal.
Private drive to Fatima. We toured ourselves and loved it. Driver was very good, completely flexible and efficient dropped us right at the entrance and pickup the same. Nice half day from Lisbon.
Diogo was wonderful. Explained the history well. He was very patient, knowledgeable, kind and accommodating. Would definitely recommend this tour!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re truly happy to hear that you had such a great experience with Diogo. He’ll be delighted to know that his knowledge, kindness, and patience made your tour special. It means a lot to us that you would recommend the experience, we hope to welcome you again in the future!
Ruben, our driver/tour guide, was exceptional. He was informative, professional, friendly, patient and very accommodating. We would book another tour with him any day! Every site was more interesting than the next. Ruben allowed ample time at each site! Obrigado!
Victor was our driver and guide. He gave us all the time we wanted to pray and tour around Fatima. We went to town with all of our photo opportunity in Batalha, Nazare, and especially Obidos. Even though it was a long day, he was very patient with us and did not rush us at all. He recommended Mosteiro Do Leitao for lunch. Their crispy pork did not disappoint. He even made a list of recommended restaurants by locals in Lisbon for us. He's a safe driver, patient guide, and definitely know his food. The whole trip was seamless.
