14th – 18th February 2026
Itinerary Overview: Day 1 – Departure & Arrival in Lisbon
We meet at the airport at 11:00 HRS for our flight, scheduled to depart at 13:00 HRS. Upon arrival in Lisbon, we will transfer to our hotel for check-in.
After settling in, we will join our tour leader for a leisurely orientation walk to get acquainted with the surroundings. The rest of the afternoon will be free for personal exploration and shopping at the renowned Vasco da Gama Shopping Centre.
Itinerary Overview: Day 2 – Discovering Lisbon
After breakfast at the hotel, we begin our day with a guided tour of Lisbon, led by a professional local guide. Our panoramic tour takes us through the highlights of the city, starting with the historic Belém district—home to some of Lisbon’s most iconic landmarks.
We will make photo stops at the Belém Tower and St. Anthony’s Church, both remarkable 16th-century UNESCO World Heritage Sites. We will also visit the impressive Monument to the Discoveries, a striking 50-meter-high structure shaped like the prow of a ship, built to honour Prince Henry the Navigator and Portugal’s Age of Exploration.
In the afternoon, we will embark on a scenic and culturally rich excursion beginning in the heart of Lisbon, where we can take in the city’s vibrant atmosphere, historic charm, and striking views over the Tagus River. From there, we will make our way along the beautiful coastal road to Estoril, known for its elegant seaside promenade, lush gardens, and storied casino that once hosted European royalty and spies. After a short stop to admire its sophisticated ambiance, we will continue to the enchanting town of Cascais. There, we will enjoy a relaxed and engaging walking tour through its charming old town, lined with cobbled streets, boutique shops, and quaint cafés. As we wander, we will take in the town’s coastal beauty, from the colorful fishing harbor to the dramatic cliffs and Atlantic vistas that have made Cascais a beloved retreat for generations.
After some free time at the market, we return to the hotel to relax and unwind.
Itinerary Overview: Day 3 – Excursion to Óbidos & Nazaré
After breakfast, we set off on a full-day excursion to explore two of Portugal’s most captivating towns.
Our first stop is the enchanting medieval village of Óbidos, often considered one of the most picturesque places in the country. This charming town is a maze of narrow cobblestone streets lined with whitewashed houses, adorned with vibrant splashes of yellow and blue. As we stroll through the village, you’ll have the opportunity to sample the famous Ginjinha (a local cherry liqueur) and browse a variety of traditional crafts and regional goods.
We then continue to the coastal town of Nazaré, a traditional fishing village where time seems to have stood still. Here, it’s not uncommon to see elderly women dressed in classic seven-layer skirts, preserving the region’s heritage. Nazaré boasts a stunning beach and dramatic views over the Atlantic Ocean—an ideal setting to enjoy fresh Portuguese cuisine, take in the sea breeze, and snap some unforgettable photos.
After a day filled with culture and coastal beauty, we return to our hotel in Lisbon to rest and recharge.
Itinerary Overview: Day 4 – Pilgrimage to Fátima & Visit to Aljustrel
Today, after breakfast, we embark on a full-day excursion to Fátima, one of the most important religious pilgrimage sites in the world. Renowned for its serene beauty and spiritual significance, Fátima is the sacred location where the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared to three young shepherd children in 1917. Since then, it has drawn millions of pilgrims seeking reflection, prayer, and peace.
Our visit includes time at the magnificent Sanctuary of Fátima, with its striking white basilica and tranquil atmosphere. On our way, we’ll stop at the Centro Comercial de Fátima, where you’ll find a wide selection of religious articles and souvenirs symbolic of the Christian faith. We will also visit the nearby village of Aljustrel, the birthplace of the three shepherd children—Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta—where their simple homes and surroundings offer a moving glimpse into their lives.
After a meaningful and enriching day, we return to our hotel in Lisbon for the evening.
Itinerary Overview: Day 5 – Christ the King Monument & Departure
After enjoying our final breakfast at the hotel, we check out of our rooms and prepare for the journey home. Before heading to the airport, we make a memorable stop at one of Lisbon’s most iconic landmarks — the Sanctuary of Christ the King (Cristo Rei). Located on the southern bank of the River Tagus, this towering statue offers panoramic views over Lisbon, the 25th of April Bridge, and the surrounding landscape. It’s a peaceful and inspiring spot, providing a perfect conclusion to our tour.
Following our visit, we proceed to Lisbon Airport for our flight scheduled to depart at 14:25 HRS.
