ABOUT YOUR TRIP
There’s no better way to experience Europe’s most treasured Catholic shrines than on this inspirational journey through Spain, Portugal, and France. Hear about the shepherd children in Fatima and the apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which happened over 100 years ago. Walk a portion of the Camino de Santiago and learn about the remarkable journey taken by pilgrims worldwide into Santiago de Compostela. In Lourdes, join the nightly Rosary and candlelight procession and spend time experiencing the Healing Baths. Lastly, a magical ending in Barcelona with time to celebrate life, reflect, and rejoice as you reflect in Gaudi’s magnificent Sagrada Familia.
Under Nativity’s excellent organization and leadership, our pilgrimages offer complete itineraries that include round-trip airfare, first-class hotel accommodations, breakfast, dinner, all transportation, daily Masses, and more!
