Trip Highlights

Siena
We will begin our trip with two days in Siena, a medieval city in Tuscany famous for its wine, horse races and most importantly, its saints and miracles. Here we will enter into the life and writings of St. Catherine of Siena.

Assisi
Our pilgrimage continues with a visit to the Seraphic City, Assisi! Here we will explore this incredible medieval city, following in the footsteps of the great Saint Francis and Saint Clare, and visiting the soon-to-be-canonized, Carlo Acutis.

San Giovanni Rotondo
After Assisi we are headed south to San Giovanni Rotondo, where Saint Padre Pio lived, worked countless miracles and where his incorrupt body now lies. We’ll also visit the beautiful Sanctuary of St. Michael the Archangel as well.

Rome
This pilgrimage features three full days in the Eternal City. We will explore Rome’s greatest sites, from the tunnels of crypts and catacombs to the many ancient amphitheaters and early Christian saints and churches.
