What's this trip about?

    This is an escorted tour. It’s perfect if you prefer not to do your own driving and want to see as many sights as you can during your vacation.  Please note: GOOD NEWS - The local tour operator will no longer require a COVID-19 vaccination for travelers as of March 1, 2023.  For travelers departing before March 1, the tour operator requires that travelers aged 12 and older provide proof of full COVID-19 vaccination in the form of written documentation (paper or electronic copy), in English, for all vacations. Proof of vaccination must be completed at least 14 days prior to the tour start date. *Exceptions apply to children who do not qualify for vaccination. Celebrate your faith as you visit Marian shrines and sites of spiritual significance. This 11-night journey gives you the opportunity to join a Rosary and Candlelight procession, experience the Healing Baths, and walk a portion of Camino de Santiago - the destination for pilgrims around the world.  Begin in Portugal, then sightsee your way to Barcelona, where your trip will come to an end. This trip will provide guided tours, comfortable accommodations, and insights on each destination.
