Fatima candle light procession. - Our driver/tour guide Maxim was excellent. The experience was once in a life time. We heard the rosary in languages from around the world. The candle light procession was beautiful.

Great experience - Great trip! Jean our guide is friendly and a pleasure to go on tour with. We appreciate the fact that he picked us up from our hotel (and sent as back, after the tour)

Beautiful Fatima - Eduardo picked us up at the cruise port and took us on our tour to Fatima. He explained everything we saw along our drive. He is extremely knowledgeable. He provided an overview of Fatima upon arrival and gave us free time to explore. He suggested a fabulous restaurant for lunch and we thoroughly enjoyed great conversation during our meal. Eduardo dropped us off at our hotel at the end of the tour. I highly recommend this tour if you want to see Fatima and if you can, you should definitely request Eduardo!

Beautiful - We were trying to leave Lisbon when the roads were closed for the Pope. The customer support and driver made sure I was able to navigate the trains (which I had never used) to find my driver and finally get out of town and go to Fatima. It was well worth the difficulties!!

This was not a tour, it was a bad Uber ride - First I have to say, Fatima and the candlelight procession are beautiful and moving. This review does not disparage that experience at all. My review is of calling this a “tour”, when in fact for us, it was a bad Uber ride at best. Our “guide” (serge) knew nothing of Fatima, had only been there once as a child, and actually asked why we would even want to go there. He did not speak about anything on the ride there, other than saying 1/2 way that he needed to stop for a smoke break. When we got to Fatima, he did not know where to drop us off nor what to tell us to do when we got inside. We figured it out ourselves however and it was a beautiful, peaceful experience. This was soon to be disrupted on the late night ride home where he blasted punk heavy metal music the entire way. We did not complain since he appeared sleepy and we hoped the music would keep him awake. 5 stars for Fatima, 0 stars for the experience.

Very dissapointing - What tour? What experience? We got in a van and were driven to Fatima. When we arrived in Fatima, the driver asked, What now... there was no tour, no procession, everything was closed. We wasted 5 hours of our time to ride in a van to nowhere. Driver stopped 2 times to smoke. What a dissapointment. Waiting on a refund. Dont make the same mistake.

Worse ever excursion experience, stay away from this one. - Thanks to Viator we received a full refund. Driver showed up late and then could not speak English. Took us to Fatima, dropped us off at a church and with broken English said he would be back in 30 minutes. Instead he returned 2 hours later and began driving us back to Lisbon. We asked about the Candle Procession and all he said was no. So a very big waste of our time.

If you just want to have... - If you just want to have a driver who take you to Fatima, go ahead. The driver were nice and he made a great job driving. But if you want a tour, just find some other option. The driver just let us in Fatima at 7pm with any guide or explanation and we saw him again until almost 11pm Wax museum were close, the church were close. Of course we spend a great time because we were there, but it’s not a tour!!
