Lisbon
Lisbon, a dazzling city stretching along the Tagus river, makes an enchanting European capital. Its nucleus, an ancient fortress, is now circled by neighborhoods drenched with medieval charm. Handcrafts - from embroidery to leatherwork - are peddled right on the streets. At night, yellow electric tramcars continue to wind their way up and down the hills to the sound of traditional Fado songs. Ample opportunities exist for seeing popular celebrations, for shopping, and for enjoying the nightlife along the riverbank.

Fatima
Fatima has welcomed Catholic pilgrims and visitors of all faiths for 100 years. The legend of Fatima began in 1917, when three shepherd children, Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco, witnessed a series of Marian apparitions, culminating in a spectacle witnessed by 70,000 people that many labeled `a miracle`. The area where the children saw the Virgin Mary is now called the Sanctuary, and many chapels and basilicas are located here. Visit the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, Basilica of the Holy Trinity, Fatima High Cross, Chapel of the Apparitions, Cova da Iria, The Great Holmoak, Sanctuary of Fatima, Grutas da Moeda, Valinhos, Loca do Anjo, Lucia`s House, Francisco and Jacinta`s House, and so much more!

Porto (also known as Oporto) is the second city of Portugal, and a hub for the northern part of the country in terms of arts, entertainment, culture and shopping. Previously conquered by the Celts, Romans and Moors, Porto has been a jewel in the Portuguese royal crown for nearly a millennium. The city offers art treasures, medieval cathedrals, museums, shopping, and delicious food and drink, all while tourists enjoy breathtaking views of the River Douro, which empties into the Atlantic just three miles from the city center. Don't miss the center, in particular the Ribeira neighborhood, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
