Central Portugal (Fátima, Batalha, Nazaré) · departing from Lisbon

Path of Faith: Fátima, Batalha and Nazaré

From the hush of the Sanctuary to the roar of the Atlantic, all in one day.

Some days stay with you long after the trip is over, and Rota da Fé is one of them. We begin in Fátima, where three shepherd children saw the impossible in 1917 and where, to this day, pilgrims from every corner of the world kneel at the Chapel of the Apparitions. We move on to the Batalha Monastery, a Gothic cathedral that took nearly two centuries to raise, with its lacework stone and the quiet of the royal tombs. And we end in Nazaré, perched above the Atlantic, where the giant waves have written themselves into surfing history and where you eat the freshest fish of the day. All at your own pace, no big group, no rushing, with a guide who knows these three stories by heart and is still moved telling them.
