Let yourself be immersed in the heart of Portugal, where history, spirituality, and stunning landscapes blend into one unforgettable journey. This tour takes you through two of the region’s most meaningful cities—Tomar and Fátima—while offering views of scenic plains, river valleys, and forested hills.

 

Tomar

We begin in Tomar, a historic city deeply connected to the legacy of the Templar Knights. Here, you’ll visit the Castle and Convent of Christ, a monumental complex recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Founded in the 12th century, the convent was gifted to the Templars by Portugal’s first king in gratitude for their role in the Christian reconquest. Its architecture showcases a blend of Gothic, Manueline, Renaissance, and Romanesque styles. One of the highlights is the Charola, the original Templar rotunda that still evokes mystery and reverence today.

This is a must-see site for anyone interested in medieval history, sacred symbolism, or hidden architectural gems.

Fátima

Next, we journey to Fátima, one of the world’s most important Catholic pilgrimage destinations. This is the place where Our Lady appeared in 1917 to Sister Lúcia and her cousins, Saints Jacinta and Francisco.

While in the Sanctuary you might visit the Our Lady of the Rosary Basilica, the Chapel of the Apparitions and also the modern Holy Trinity Basilica.

Take time to walk the grounds, attend Mass, light a candle, or simply absorb the quiet, spiritual atmosphere that led Pope John Paul II to call this place “The Altar of the World.”

Return to Lisbon

After a day filled with legends, devotion, and meaningful discoveries, we make our way back to Lisbon. Along the route, enjoy a final look at the rural beauty that defines the center of Portugal.

This itinerary is carefully designed for an unforgettable experience—but the choice is always yours.

Let yourself be guided through the grandeur of Tomar and Fátima, where history and faith come to life.

Sintra, for example, has a microclimate, which in a way makes this place so magical and unique, but sometimes it can really make the visit sad by limiting visibility and the experience a bit, but that’s something that’s not in our control.

First of all, Kate was a wonderful tour guide. Secondly, the Templar sires we visited were fascinating and beautiful. It was an altogether first rate experience. I would highly recommend to anyone interested in history.

Amazing tour, Kate was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. We visited all the sites that we wanted to, and even had lunch in a beautiful little sandwich shop in Tomar. These Yellow Cab private tours seem more expensive, but it was worth every penny as they stepped in last minute when our group tour operator cancelled last minute. I can’t recommend them enough and would only do private tours in the future. Outstanding!!

The most Experienced guides, excelent drivers and absolute the best historien knowledge you can ask for. I am so suprised that I felt I met a new friends for the future on the two days I spent with them. I strongly recomend their servesis, the yellow cab is the best. Thank you Ruigeorge and Katarina for making my stay in Lissabon so nice. Big hugs Stefan Eklund.

This is our second tour with this company. Our first tour was 4 years ago so I think it says something that we came back for a second tour. This time it was me, my husband, and his dad (there wasn't an option for "family" of adults so I guess "couple" +1?) Once again, we did a private tour and again, I think it was the best decision for us. We like having the little bit of wiggle room in terms of pace of sites and not having to wait on anyone else or have anyone else wait on us. We had a wonderful day with Jorge! My husband and his dad enjoyed all the extensive history information and chatting. The sites are beautiful and we had a delicious lunch and even got to pop in a couple of shops along the way around town. My FIL has bad knees and Jorge was sure to check in to make sure everyone was doing okay with the pace we were going at. I highly recommend this tour for the castle and history lovers and having Jorge as your guide!

We had amazing weather so Jorge was able to show us beautiful sights, tell us the history and answer all of our questions regarding the Knights Templar in Tomar. Jorge also shared a side street secret at lunch time of Peri Peri chicken. It was amazing and we shared a lot of conversation. This tour was a highlight of our trip.
