With an expert guide, take two day trips in your desired order to discover the must-sees around Lisbon.

We depart first to encounter Óbidos and meet its medieval walls, rustic white houses and the rich and varied local traditions of the town. We also take the opportunity to visit the Castle. We then head onto the picturesque and colourful fishing town of Nazaré. There’s also the chance to find out something about the legends and traditions of this town. We then move onto Batalha to visit the monastery church, a Gothic masterpiece with the most finely worked stained-glass windows. Finally, we reach the Our Lady of Fátima Sanctuary, an altar of the Christian faith and site of world pilgrimage. There is also the Chapel of Apparitions with its portrayal of Our Lady of Fátima. You have some some free time to attend mass. Travelling through this colourful agricultural region, we return to Lisbon. (Please note that itinerary may change the order of visit)
