This full-day experience invites you to explore one of the world’s most revered pilgrimage destinations, where millions gather to honor the apparitions of the Virgin Mary to three shepherd children in 1917.
Your expert guide will lead you through the sanctuary’s vast esplanade, framed by the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary and the Basilica of the Holy Trinity. Marvel at landmarks like the Sacred Heart of Jesus monument, the High Cross, and the poignant Berlin Wall fragment, each adding depth to the site’s unique atmosphere.
