Fátima full-day tour with Óbido, Batalha, Nazaré

-What you can expect-
The tour leaves Lisbon around 09.00am as we head Towards Fátima. This small countryside town is well known for its sanctuary and for being one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the world. The astonishing Basilica was built to commemorate the events of 1917, when 3 children were blessed with the apparition of the Virgin Mary. Inside this Basilica you'll also find the tombs of the 3 children, aside from many other works of sacred art. On the other side of the sanctuary is the new Church of the Most Holy Trinity, built in the 2000s, and one of the largest Christian churches in the world. You can also visit the Chapel of the Apparitions, located right on the spot where the apparitions occurred. We'll spend around 1h00m / 1h15m in Fátima.
After visiting Fátima, you'll head towards Batalha, a medieval town that gained importance with the construction of the monastery. This was the consequence of a victory achieved in the most relevant battle (Batalha in Portuguese) that occurred during the 14th century and due to this Portugal was kept independent from Castilla (Spain) in the Battle Field of Aljubarrota. The Batalha Monastery has more than 600 years old and it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the entrance to this monument is included.
In this tour, you can also visit other tourist places of the region, like the village of Nazaré, a traditional fishing village and the first Portuguese pilgrimage site where the Virgin appeared to a Portuguese Knight who defeated the temptation of the Devil. Here you can try some of the best fish and seafood in the country in the very famous local restaurants, owned mostly by local fisherman families. Here you can also see some of the biggest waves in Europe, that are also surfed by renowned international sportsmen.
Last but not least, Óbidos... A charming and picturesque village surrounded by medieval walls from the 12th century, where you can have 1 free hour to wonder in its streets and try the very famous traditional drink: the Ginjinha, a sour cherry liquor served in a chocolate cup to be eaten after.
