About this experience

Lourdes, France, nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees, is home to one of the world's most famous Marian devotions. In early 1858, the Massabielle Grotto became the site of eighteen apparitions of the Virgin Mary to a young woman named Maria Bernadette Soubirous.
Your tour will guide you through the three sanctuaries of Lourdes, the revered Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes, and the medical bureau where the documented files of the 70 miracles recognized by both the Vatican and French medical authorities are preserved. This experience will be led by an expert guide.
