Join this 5-night pilgrimage to Fatima with the Holy Souls Crusade group, led by Aidan Bond. A detailed programme has been prepared for the group by our team in Fatima so you can visit the most important places in the Sanctuary, known by pilgrims as the ‘City of Peace’. In addition to visiting the Sanctuary, this tour includes a visit to Lumiar and the Relics of St. Brigid of Ireland and the Eucharistic Miracle in Santarem.
Located north of Lisbon, the sanctuary of Fatima was built to commemorate the events that took place in 1917, when the Virgin Mary appeared to three local shepherd children: Lúcia dos Santos and her cousins, Jacinta and Francisco Marto.
The magnificent Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary overlooking the square is the gathering point for thousands of pilgrims that visit the sanctuary every year and where they join in procession.
The Joe Walsh Tours team in Fatima led by knowledgeable Elsa and Carina has prepared a detailed programme for this 5-night pilgrimage so you can experience the Sanctuary in full.
The Chapel of Aparitions Capelinha das Aparições, the Via Sacra to Cova da Iria, the Way of the Cross and the childhood homes of the three shepherd children in the nearby villages of Aljustrel and Valinhos are some of the most special places for pilgrims in Fatima.
We work closely with hotels near the Sanctuary to provide quality accommodation and meals for our pilgrims in Fatima. We hope you enjoy the experience.
