"What is the ideal Pilgrimage tour?" The answer is both personal and complex. Although similar to "regular" tours with many features in common, a pilgrimage has a deeper purpose: to leave you with a deeper faith and a more complete knowledge of God. These added dimensions will make your pilgrimage a unique and unforgettable life experience.

We at Classic Pilgrimages are dedicated to providing you with the best pilgrimages available today. Our commitment to excellence is backed by our reputation, our experience and our company's financial strength.

We offer traditional pilgrimage destinations such as Rome, the Holyland and Turkey. We also offer the sites of apparitions such as Fatima, Lourdes and Medjugorje. Finally, we offer pilgrimages to Spain, Germany, Poland, Ireland, a World Youth Day 2008 tour and Greece, where Paul lived and preached.

Classic Pilgrimages is proud to offer high quality tours to these popular destinations at affordable prices. Our "Best Price Policy" guarantees that our rates, for the same tour at the same time, will always be the best. In fact, our 2006 rates are lower than many of those charged by our competitors in 2005. For your peace of mind, Classic Pilgrimages is one of the few pilgrim tour operators that is an active member of USTOA (United States Tour Operators Association) and is backed by USTOA's $1 Million Consumer Protection Plan (Gate 1 maintains a $2 million policy).

A "Tour Chaplain" will always accompany your tour, celebrating mass with the group and attending to each member's spiritual needs. In addition, our professional tour guide will add insight and background knowledge as you travel to the shrines, Cathedrals, and other sacred sites on your itinerary. These insights will make the sites even more meaningful and your entire experience more rewarding.

We wholeheartedly invite you to join one of our forthcoming 2006/2007 pilgrimages. RSVP to (800) 682-3333.
