Fátima · Óbidos · Nazaré Shore Excursion — from Lisbon Cruise Terminal
In 1917, three shepherd children from a small village in central Portugal reported seeing the Virgin Mary in a field outside Fatima. Today, that field draws five million visitors a year — more than any other pilgrimage destination in the Western world.
From your ship at Lisbon Cruise Terminal, Fatima is less than two hours away. This is a journey worth making.
Your private driver picks you up directly at the pier — not at a meeting point, not after a taxi ride. No shared coaches, no waiting, no group schedules. Just your party, a comfortable vehicle, and the freedom to experience Fatima at your own pace.
Walk the vast esplanade of the Sanctuary — twice the size of St. Peter's Square in Rome. Enter the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, built on the exact site of the apparitions, where the tombs of Francisco and Jacinta rest. Visit the Chapel of the Apparitions, where candles burn day and night. Then make your way to Aljustrel, the quiet village where the three children were born — unchanged in a hundred years.
When you're ready, your driver is waiting. You'll be back at the ship well before departure, guaranteed.
Some ports of call stay with you long after the cruise ends. Fatima is one of them.

Cruise line excursions are typically shared coaches with 20 to 50 people. GoToo provides a private vehicle with a licensed local driver, direct pier pick-up, and a fixed price that is usually lower than the cruise line rate. Cancellation follows our terms: more than 8 days before, you pay the deposit only; between 8 days and 48 hours, 50%; under 48 hours, 100%.
The price covers the private vehicle, your English-speaking licensed driver, and all transfers from and back to the cruise terminal. Entrance fees, meals, and gratuities are not included.
Yes. The itinerary is flexible. If you would like to add a stop on the way to or from Fatima, let us know when booking and we will adjust the route and timing accordingly.
We monitor arrival times and adapt. If your ship arrives late, we adjust the itinerary to make the most of the time available — focusing on the Sanctuary and Chapel of the Apparitions, the heart of Fatima, rather than cancelling the excursion altogether. You still get to experience what matters most. Only in cases of extreme delay where a meaningful visit is no longer possible do we offer a full refund.
