Complete accompaniment with:
Enter the Basilica of the Nativity and descend to the Grotto of the Nativity, where a 14-pointed silver star marks the exact place where Jesus was born. There, silence and emotion speak louder than a thousand words.
We will visit the Shepherds' Field, where angels proclaimed the Good News on that holy night, and enter the Milk Grotto, where the Virgin Mary nursed the Christ Child. In St. Catherine's Church, we can join the liturgical chant that continues to rise day after day from this sacred land. Bethlehem is not just a destination: it is a return to the beginning of everything, to the God who became a child out of love.
Bethlehem, in the heart of Palestine, is the cradle of Christianity. Here, in a simple grotto, Jesus was born, the Son of God made man, fulfilling the prophecies that announced the Messiah born from David's lineage. This city has been a pilgrimage site since the 4th century, when St. Helena ordered a basilica to be built over the grotto of the nativity.
Throughout the centuries, Bethlehem has witnessed the devotion of kings, shepherds, saints, and millions of faithful who have come to prostrate themselves before the mystery of the Incarnation. Walking through its streets is returning to the origin of Christian faith, to the moment when heaven touched earth.
Walking through Nazareth is like entering the intimacy of Jesus' family life. Upon arriving at the Basilica of the Annunciation, you will feel the echo of Mary's "YES" that changed the history of the world. Under the dome, there is the inscription: "Here the Word became flesh," marking the place where heaven descended upon earth.
In St. Joseph's Workshop, contemplate the environment where the just carpenter educated the Messiah. Finally, drink from Mary's Well, symbol of the daily encounter with God in the ordinary. Every corner of Nazareth invites us to renew faith from simplicity, service, and trusting surrender.
Nazareth, in the region of Galilee, is much more than a picturesque village among hills: it is the place where the mystery of salvation began. Here, the angel Gabriel announced to Mary that she would be the Mother of the Savior, beginning the divine plan of redemption.
Although it was a humble and almost insignificant village in Jesus' time, it was chosen to become the home of the Holy Family. In its streets, Jesus lived his childhood and youth, worked with his hands alongside Joseph, and grew in obedience, wisdom, and grace before God and men.
Upon arriving at Capernaum, the silence of the stones will speak to you more than a thousand sermons. This small town, on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, witnessed multiple miracles and teachings of Jesus. Visit St. Peter's House, where the Lord healed his mother-in-law and where he frequently stayed during his ministry.
Walk through the remains of the ancient synagogue, built over the one where Jesus taught, and feel how the words of the Gospel still resonate among its white stone columns. Here occurred the miracle of the paralytic who was lowered through the roof to be placed before Jesus, where he not only healed his body but also his soul.
Capernaum, known as "Jesus' city," was the center of his public life in Galilee. On the shores of the Sea of Galilee, this ancient town witnessed miracles, teachings, and encounters that transformed lives. Here, Jesus healed the sick, cast out demons, called his first disciples, and spoke words of eternal life.
It was also the place where he lived after leaving Nazareth, and where he established a close relationship with Peter's family. The ruins that remain today reveal the importance of this city in the first century.
In Magdala, live a profound encounter with God's mercy. This sacred place, on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, keeps alive the memory of Jesus' and his disciples' first steps. The main chapel, with its boat-shaped altar, reminds us of the call of the disciples on these same waters.
During our visit, we will participate in Eucharistic adoration, silence, and contemplation before the Blessed Sacrament. We will also visit a special chapel dedicated to the miracle of the woman who touched Jesus' cloak, where we will have the opportunity to pray and touch the edge of his cloak as a symbol of our faith.
Magdala, an ancient fishing village on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee, is recognized as the birthplace of Mary Magdalene, one of Jesus' most faithful disciples. She was a witness to the Resurrection and announcer of the Good News, being called "Apostle to the Apostles."
Archaeological findings reveal a 1st-century synagogue, probably contemporary with Jesus. This site is testimony to Jesus' profound relationship with women and the marginalized of his time.
Sailing in a wooden boat on the Sea of Galilee is much more than a ride: it is an interior journey. In the sway of the lake, you can meditate on your faith, like the disciples facing the storm. Remember the miraculous catch, Peter's call, and Jesus' gesture that calmed the winds.
On land, visit the exhibition of the 1st-century Boat, a relic that directly connects with the daily life of Jesus and his apostles. Nearby, ascend the Mount of the Beatitudes, where the words of the Sermon on the Mount still resonate.
Tiberias, founded by Herod Antipas in honor of Emperor Tiberius, was a flourishing city in Jesus' time. It is located next to the Sea of Galilee, whose waters were the stage for some of the most emblematic moments of the Gospel.
Here Jesus called his disciples, walked on water, calmed storms, and taught the crowds from a boat. It is a place charged with symbolism, where water, faith, and divine presence are intertwined forever.
In Cana, your heart joins the joy of the wedding and the miracle of transformation. This is the ideal place to renew marriage vows, in an intimate ceremony that remembers how Jesus continues to bless human love with his presence.
The church built over the traditional site of the miracle invites prayer for spouses, for families, and for all the bonds that give meaning to life. Cana is an invitation to let the water of the ordinary become wine of joy.
Cana of Galilee, a small village north of Nazareth, is famous for being the scene of Jesus' first miracle: the transformation of water into wine during a wedding. This sign not only manifested his glory but marked the beginning of his public life.
Cana symbolizes God's blessing on marriage and family life. It is a place where the ordinary was transformed by Christ's presence, prefiguring the new wine of the Kingdom.
Walking the Via Dolorosa is immersing yourself in Christ's Passion, pray each station with an open heart, and culminate in the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre, where the light of the Resurrection dispels all darkness. On the Mount of Olives, pray in Gethsemane, where Jesus accepted the cross.
Visit the Upper Room, site of the Last Supper, and the Abbey of the Dormition, where the Virgin would have closed her eyes in this life. In Jerusalem, every step is an echo of the Gospel, and every prayer is a plea that rises from the holy land to eternal heaven.
Jerusalem is the beating heart of Christian faith. The holy city par excellence, on its hills and alleyways unfolded the deepest mysteries of Christ's life: his passion, death, and resurrection. From the Mount of Olives to Mount Zion, every corner preserves the living memory of the Savior.
Here stands the Holy Sepulchre, built over Calvary and the empty tomb, witnesses to the triumph of life over death. Jerusalem has been a pilgrimage center since the 4th century.
In Jericho, contemplate the Mount of Temptation, where Jesus fasted 40 days and faced the enemy. Next to Zacchaeus' Tree, remember Jesus' gaze that transforms hearts. This is a place to recognize one's own fragility and to ask for the strength that faith gives.
Here the desert and greenery coexist like the soul's interior struggle and the hope of conversion. Jericho invites you to let yourself be found by Jesus, like Zacchaeus, and to respond with joy.
Considered one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities, Jericho appears in the Bible as a symbol of conquest and redemption. Here Joshua brought down its walls to the sound of trumpets, and here Jesus performed several miracles, including healing blind Bartimaeus and converting Zacchaeus.
Jericho is also the starting point for the ascent to Jerusalem, a path that many ancient pilgrims traveled in prayer.
When visiting Lazarus' tomb, pilgrims contemplate the mystery of the God who gives life. Bethany is a school of love: the love that serves (like Martha), the love that contemplates (like Mary), and the love that believes amid sorrow (like both sisters faced with their brother's death).
Here you can renew your faith in Jesus' promise: "I am the resurrection and the life." Bethany is the home where the heart opens to true friendship with God.
Bethany was the home of Martha, Mary, and Lazarus, intimate friends of Jesus. In this village, Christ rested, dialogued, and demonstrated his power over death by raising Lazarus (John 11). It was also in Bethany where Mary anointed Jesus' feet with perfume, anticipating his burial.
It is a place of intimacy, hospitality, sorrow, and resurrection.
Drink from Jacob's Well, or simply contemplate it, to remember the moment when a life was transformed by a conversation with Jesus. Here, the pilgrim's soul can also open to that living water, to that spring that flows from divine mercy.
Samaria invites us to leave behind prejudices, wounds, and divisions, and to discover that we are all called to worship the Father from the heart.
In the region of Samaria, where there existed an ancestral enmity with the Jews, Jesus broke barriers by meeting the Samaritan woman at Jacob's Well (John 4). In that dialogue, he revealed his identity as the Messiah and promised the "living water" that satisfies the soul.
This place represents inclusion, forgiveness, and the new worship "in spirit and in truth."
In the Church of the Visitation, sing with Mary her canticle of gratitude: "My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord..." Also visit the Church of St. John the Baptist, where you can meditate on your own calling to prepare the way of the Lord.
Ein Karem is a living praise. Every stone seems to repeat the joy of the Gospel. Here the heart expands, and prayer becomes song.
Ein Karem is known as the birthplace of St. John the Baptist, the forerunner of the Lord. It was also the place where Mary visited her cousin Elizabeth and proclaimed the Magnificat (Luke 1:39-56). This encounter between the two women is one of the most luminous moments in the Gospel.
This mountainous corner of Jerusalem has been sanctified by the joy of service, prophecy, and praise.
Ascend Mount Carmel to enter a school of contemplation. At the Stella Maris Monastery, seat of the Carmelites, you will be welcomed by silence, the Mediterranean breeze, and profound devotion to Mary, the Star of the Sea. Here, pilgrims venerate Elijah's grotto, the prophet of fire and prayer.
Carmel invites you to renew your vocation of fidelity amid trials, to trust like Elijah and embrace the interior life. From the mountaintop, contemplating Haifa and the sea, discover the beauty of persevering faith, the kind that burns in the heart even in times of drought.
Mount Carmel, in the modern port city of Haifa, has been a sacred mountain since ancient times. It was there that the prophet Elijah challenged the prophets of Baal and kindled fire from heaven as a sign of the one true God (1 Kings 18). This spiritual victory made Carmel a symbol of fidelity, prayer, and the struggle for truth.
Since the Middle Ages, Mount Carmel was chosen by Christian hermits seeking to live in silence and contemplation. From them was born the Carmelite Order, under the protection of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, patroness of the Carmelites and symbol of maternal protection.
Medjugorje is not visited: it is lived. On Apparition Hill, pilgrims ascend praying the rosary, encountering the peace that can only come from above. On Krizevac, where a great cross dominates the valley, each station of the Way of the Cross becomes a personal encounter with the Crucified.
St. James Parish is the spiritual heart of the village, with its evening program that includes the rosary, mass, Eucharistic adoration, and healing prayer. Medjugorje is a sanctuary of the heart, where the Virgin invites everyone to "return to God with all your heart."
Since 1981, the small village of Medjugorje became one of the world's most visited Marian pilgrimage centers, following testimonies from six young people who claimed to have seen the Virgin Mary. Although the apparitions have not been officially approved by the Church, Rome has authorized organized pilgrimages.
Through messages centered on prayer, conversion, fasting, the Eucharist, and reconciliation, Medjugorje has established itself as a true school of spirituality for millions of faithful worldwide.
