This is a wonderful way to see Fatima and learn all the spiritual history about the Blessed Mother and the apparitions. Not only do you see the basilicas, but you also visit the village the children were from along with their homes. Rita is an excellent and knowledgeable guide who gave me and my mother an amazing tour!

    This tour is very special. Anildo, our tour guide, did an excellent job immersing us in all the aspects of the tour. He led us through the station of the cross, took us to where the children lived. Anildo did a great job telling us stories and interesting facts about the history of the area and the details of the apparitions. I would highly recommend this tour.

    John_T, Jul 2025
    Our guide, Rita, was very knowledgeable and spoke English very well so we were able to get the most out of the tour. The tour took us to the homes of the “little shepherds” and to the sites of all the apparitions. Rita’s knowledge of both history and religious significance added to the experience. It was hot (90F/29C) but the walking pace was comfortable even with the heat.

    Worthwhile Pilgrimage!

    Annabel_N, May 2025
    The BEST Tour we have had! First, Raquel our guide is very much knowledgeable, fun loving and put her heart out. She elaborates most of the details and made it worthwhile pilgrimage. She is very sensitive to our needs, give us the rest and photo we needed. She has depth and strong history background. It is not your typical tour since she has given more to it. Thank you Raquel!

    Best Private Walking Tour of Fatima, the Trails and History

    Fred_C, May 2025
    This was a fantastic walking tour of Fatima. Our guide was very knowledgeable, polite and punctual. He did a fantastic job, especially since it was Fatima's busiest day of the year, May 13th.

    Incredible tours by incredible guide.

    Houtman_S, Apr 2025
    The young lady guides was with patience and accompany us to go through the 14 stations of the cross. Afterwards we went around and showed us around the sanctuary and the church. She was great.

    Book This Tour!

    Jennifer_M, Sep 2024
    Can't say enough good things about this tour & tour guide! I was already familiar with the locations and history, even have a PhD in theology, but the personality of the guide and her telling of the details, her genuine personality, and true friendliness is what made this so much better than seeing the sights alone. If you want to see the sites, hear the true history, and feel the message kindness of Fatima through a wonderful guide. Book this tour!

    My journey to Fatima

    Mary_G, Aug 2024
    Me and my mom had a wonderful time in Fatima. The guide and her trainee were so kind and compassionate in explaining us the whole history of Fatima and how the Mother Goddess appeared to the shepherd children. Such a breathtaking story. I will be very happy to recommend her and her assistant as they had a lot of excitement in their story. We were happy to visit the children's houses and the place where the Mother Goddess appeared. Thank you for sch amazing guides.
