Sanctuary of Fatima & Aljustrel Tour

The tour begins on Emídio Navarro Av. in Coimbra, followed by a journey to Fatima. The first stop is Aljustrel, known for the 1917 apparitions of the Virgin Mary to three young shepherds.

During the visit to Aljustrel, you'll see the houses of Lucía, Francisco and Jacinta. After exploring Aljustrel, we proceed to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fatima, which attracts over six million visitors annually, making it a significant site for Catholicism in Portugal.

At the Sanctuary, you will visit the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary with its 65-meter (213-foot) tower, the modern Basilica of the Holy Trinity, and the Chapel of the Apparitions, where the Virgin Mary first appeared to the children. There may be an opportunity to attend mass at the Sanctuary.

After completing the tour of the Sanctuary's key religious sites, we will return to the meeting point in Coimbra.
