Pilgrimage In Holy Year
FRANCE – SPAIN – PORTUGAL – ITALY — 13 Days
Jubilee Year Pilgrimage 07/2025 – A Sacred Journey Through Europe
There are journeys we take to see the world, and there are journeys that lead the heart closer to God. The Jubilee Year Pilgrimage 07/2025 with Carnival US Travel is a 13-day Catholic journey through France, Spain, Portugal, and Italy, created for pilgrims seeking prayer, peace, beauty, and spiritual renewal.
This pilgrimage brings guests to treasured Catholic destinations such as Paris, Lisieux, Lourdes, Salamanca, Fatima, Lisbon, Vatican City, Rome, and Assisi. Each place offers its own grace: the devotion of the Miraculous Medal in Paris, the gentle spirituality of Lisieux, the healing presence of Lourdes, the Marian message of Fatima, the holy heart of Rome, and the peaceful footsteps of St. Francis in Assisi.
More than visiting famous landmarks, pilgrims will experience sacred shrines, historic basilicas, holy places connected to saints and apparitions, and moments of prayer that stay in the heart long after the journey ends. Along the way, guests will also enjoy Europe’s rich culture, timeless cities, and beautiful landscapes.
With Carnival US Travel, every detail is thoughtfully prepared so pilgrims can travel with comfort, confidence, and peace of mind. This is a journey for those who want to deepen their faith, give thanks, and experience the Jubilee Year in a truly meaningful way.
