Marian Tours International - Quality Catholic Travel since 1991

Plan Your Own Trip to One of Our Favorite Destinations

From our very beginning we have planned, organized and accompanied groups of Catholic Pilgrims to places of significance to our faith. That's all we do and we do it well. If you are a Catholic priest or someone who would like us to customize a trip for your group please contact us with as many details as you may have and we'll get back to you with more information. We promise to listen carefully to your ideas and propose a trip that fits what you want to do.

In most cases we work with groups of between 20 and 45 pilgrims. Twenty is normally an economical minimum and forty-five is about the capacity of one bus. Trips with more than one bus require special consideration and are most often not as satisfactory as smaller groups.

Here are some of our favorite places to perhaps inspire your dreaming:

The Holy Land

Galilee to Jerusalem in the footsteps of Jesus. If you only take one trip in your lifetime, it should be to the Holy Land. The diversity, history, tradition and spirituality

Porziuncola chapel Assisi
cannot be matched anywhere.

Rome and Italy

Rome is, of course, the center of our Catholic Faith. The "Eternal City" was perhaps the single most important place in determining the future of Christianity. It was from here that the influence of Peter and Paul spread to all the world. And Italy offers an opportunity to visit the land of many of our most influential saints at places like Assisi, Florence, Siena and San Giovanni Rotundo.

Fatima/Lourdes/Spain

For most Americans Marian devotion begins here. These, most famous of the European Marian sites, have long been approved by the Church. The miraculous cures at Lourdes are unmatched anywhere and continue even to today. The remarkable predictions at Fatima concerning the World Wars and the conversion of Russia invariably leads the pilgrim to a deepening of faith. In between we cross Spain by bus stopping, on most trips, in Avila and Garabandal. (Read our article on Garabandal.)

Peirene Fountain Corinth

Greece

Here you can travel in the footsteps of St. Paul's 2nd and 3rd journeys to Athens, Corinth, Phillipi, Thessaloniki, Ephessus and more. Each of these cities offers a unique insight into Paul's remarkable life and writings. And we expect you will want to included a cruise through the Greek Isles.

Bunratty Castle
County Clare, Ireland



Ireland

On our trips to the Emerald Isle, among other things, we see the Rock of Cashel, kiss the Blarney Stone, tour the Ring of Kerry, view the Cliffs of Mohr, visit the shrine of Our Lady of Knock and enjoy a medieval dinner at Bunratty Castle. May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face....

Marian Tours Group in Mexico

Mexico City

Witness the devotion of the Mexican people to the Mother of the Americas. The story of how Our Lady of Guadalupe inspired the conversion of a nation in the face of persecution comes alive in this land of great faith.

France

Home of countless great Saints, France, more than any other country, is where Christianity blossomed.

Among others France was home to Joan of Arc, St. Bernadette, the peasant girl who received Marian apparitions at Lourdes; St. Therese of Lisieux, the famous Doctor of the Church known as the Little Flower; St. Margaret Mary, whose apparition of Jesus led to the special devotions to the Sacred Heart; and St. John Vianney, the Cure of Ars.

Poland

The unspoiled homeland of St. Faustina and John Paul II; the Jasna Gora monastery at Czestochowa, the most important shrine of Roman Catholic Poland; the remains of infamous Auschwitz.
