I am totally suspicious to speak, for I am a devotee of Our Lady. The place is beautiful, transmits peace and serenity. I loved to meet this jewel of Portugal.

One of the best tours we ever took. Camilla went the extra mile to make this a perfect trip. Obidos with their Christmas decorations was a feast for the eyes Had an excellent seafood lunch in Nazare at North Spot restaurant over view the ocean, Be there right when they opened at 12 pm otherwise they will fill up really fast! Camilla stopped by the Little Shepperds town as we had some extra time and this is a +. Thank you Camilla Last but not least the Sanctuary of Fatima.

Nice small group - 6. Our guide -Andreia was very knowledgeable. Not being a religious person - I found Fátima very interesting. Nazare was stunning. Lunch at Northspot was delicious and great views. Óbidos was ok but very touristy. The Castle wall is cool. Being able to walk around the top and get the views was good. Long day 9hrs. But went by super quick. Plenty of time each place
