Peace Tour Catholic

Ideology, Religious beliefs, Way of Life

These are often concepts that instead of bringing people together in harmony and understanding, generate hatred and stereotypes. The goal of The Peace Tour is to reveal that people of diverse beliefs can co-exist peacefully in the Middle East.

When choosing a tour to the Holy Land, one has many options. Tours normally focus on the important sites and do not contribute to the prevailing inter-relations of those who share this land. We have created a Holy Land experience that takes you beyond the holy sites, to the peoples of this great region. It is only when stereotypes are shattered that the true bridges of understanding between peoples can be built.

Added value

The Peace Tour, with all our exclusive features, offers added values compared to other pilgrimage programs. The Peace Tour will appeal to all those who seek additional inputs to their first visit and adds new angles for the benefit of old time visitors.

Christ at the Sea of Galilee, Tintoretto (1518 - 1594)

"I pray that my visit will serve to encourage an increase of inter-religious dialogue that will lead Jews, Christians and Muslims to... work for the peace and justice which the peoples of the Holy Land do not yet have, and for which they yearn so deeply."
Pope John Paul II on his Holy Land Pilgrimage in the year 2000
