Beautiful and faithful journey. So glad we went!! - Can’t say enough about how wonderful this tour was. Susan our guide was wonderful and so knowledgeable. We had no idea how magnificent Lourdes was and Susan took her time to answer all of our questions. Go to Lourdes you will not be disappointed. I had chills as I walked the grounds.

Fantastic tour of Lourdes - We had a wonderful tour in English with Kathy. She adjusted the tour to avoid crowds. We saw the Grotto of Massabielle to see where Bernadette Soubirous witnessed apparitions of Mary. We were given time to take photos, pray, and offer written petitions. She showed us where to come back later to fill bottles. We were shown the Crypt, The Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, the underground Basilica, Crown and Rosary Square and the Rosary Basilica. While visiting each place, she explained and answered questions about the Sanctuary’s history and artwork.
