Fatima is one of the largest pilgrimage centers in the world, built around the place where, in 1917, the Virgin Mary appeared to three shepherds. After visiting the Basilica where the three seers are buried, the chapel of apparitions and the modern Church of the Holy Trinity, we will have some free time to prayers or attend a celebration (optional). Shortly afterwards, the tour goes to Valinhos, the small village where the three young shepherds were born, and we will visit their homes, having the chance to see what the region’s houses looked like at the beginning of the XX century.
Sinta - UNESCO World Heritage, has been the summer residence of the royal family since the fourteenth century. Sintra’s micro climate, where humidity predominates, helped the exuberant vegetation to thrive. It was often praised by the nineteenth-century romantic poets like Lord Byron. You will have the opportunity to visit one of the various Palaces of Sintra on this tour and taste the traditional sweets.

We had a wonderful day visiting Fatima and Sintra with Premiere Tours. Our driver-guide Rui was knowledgeable and a gentleman. The sites were truly amazing. The ride was very comfortable. You couldn’t have asked for more. Book with Premiere Tours, Jorge will take care of all the details.

After receiving the snarky response from Premier Tours to my initial review, I will add the additional reasons for my rating that I had left out in trying to be nice. The advertised Wi-Fi did not work (guess no one had checked it) and despite asking the guide to speak up as my wife has hearing difficulties, that did not happen. And, no, the description does not indicate the amount of time in the car. It may be fine for others, but we did not find it that enjoyable.

We took this tour because two of us wanted to go to Sintra while the third wanted to go to Fátima. We thought this tour would be a compromise. I would not recommend this tour, however, because most of the day was spent in the car driving to and between destinations. Sintra deserves its own tour.

We had Rod as our tour guide and we enjoyed his banter and knowledge. He had a great sense of humor and was flexible with how we wanted to experience the excursions. Both stops were good and we felt like we had adequate time at both, although Fatima would have taken way longer had we tried to light a candle.

This was one of the best tours me and my wife have ever taken during our travels around the world. Premiere Tours is by far the best guiding agency we ever hired, and Jorge Bras is the most knowledgeable guide, a true gentleman, always looking out for our wellbeing.
Fatima and Sintra are truly two of the most wonderful places in the planet. The spirituality of Fatima and the mysticism of Sintra with its magical fairytale palaces, made the top on our favorite places in the world list.
Even though we were in Portugal for only three days on a business trip, during the pandemic, we decided to contact Premiere Tours for ideas on a one day tour, and we are so pleased that we were advised to take this one.
We recommend this highly professional guiding agency to everyone visit Portugal.
