    NELSON IS AMAZING!!!

    Nelson was amazing. He’s a local man who is well connected in Fatima. Trust me when I say he knows things that other tour guides don’t know. He has so much knowledge about Fatima and the story behind everything. He was patient and always ensured we were comfortable and understood what he was saying. Nelson’s family are residents of Fatima and he is a member of the parish. You will learn things that you wont learn from other tour guides. Simply an amazing and caring individual.

    Absolutely an amazing tour

    By far the best tour we have ever taken. Nelson had a wealth of knowledge of the history of the area and apparitions. You get the understanding of how the children lived. This tour was a true gem. I would recommend this tour to anyone that is interested in the background of the 3 seeres and the area

    The Magnetism of Fatima: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Coimbra.

    How much does The Magnetism of Fatima cost?

    +

    Prices start at $169 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Coimbra usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does The Magnetism of Fatima take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Coimbra is not rushed.

    Is The Magnetism of Fatima worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 26 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Coimbra, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule The Magnetism of Fatima?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is The Magnetism of Fatima suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book The Magnetism of Fatima?

    +

    Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Coimbra can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Coimbra and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does The Magnetism of Fatima start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Coimbra within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Coimbra?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Coimbra experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Coimbra Top Attractions Walking Tour, Discovering the charms and places of Coimbra, Soft Canyoning, river Ceira, Góis, Serra da Lousa, Coimbra. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Coimbra?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Coimbra?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in The Magnetism of Fatima?

    +

    Included: Hotel pick up and drop off (HOTELS IN FATIMA ONLY); Clean & Safe certification; Transport by premium vehicle with AC; A local Professional Guide; and Private tour FROM FATIMA. Not included: Lunch; Personal expenses; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does The Magnetism of Fatima include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 47 listed pickup locations in and around Coimbra. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is The Magnetism of Fatima offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for The Magnetism of Fatima?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is The Magnetism of Fatima wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to The Magnetism of Fatima if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Coimbra. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.

    What do travelers say about The Magnetism of Fatima?

    +
