ABOUT MEDJUGORJE On June 25, 1981, in the mountain village of Medjugorje in Herzegovina, Our
Lady appeared to six children. She identified herself as the Blessed Virgin
Mary, Queen of Peace, and continues to appear to several of the visionaries.
Her mission is to promote peace with God and mankind, through her Son, Jesus. Mary's own words to the children explained, "I have come to tell the
world that God exists."
ABOUT ROME: Rome has been one of history's most powerful and important cities, along
with home to the Roman Catholic Church, the Pope, and the site of the Vati-
can City. First built in 337, St. Peter's Basilica lies over the tomb of St. Peter. Contained within is a vast array of the most beautiful artwork ever assem-
bled, reflecting the immensity, beauty, vastness, majesty, glory and awe-
someness of God.
Sep 29 / Day 1 - Depart USA
Board your overnight transatlantic flights from your home town. Meals are
served on board.
Sep 30 / Day 2 - Arrive Medjugorje
Early morning arrival in Europe where you will board your flights to Croatia.
Upon arrival you will find your luggage and exit the baggage claim into the
arrivals hall where you will be greeted by a tour guide and/or driver. You will be escorted to the vehicle which will then take you on the 2 1/2 hour drive to
the village of Medjugorje where you will be staying for the next seven nights.
Enjoy dinner before retiring for the evening.
Oct 1 - Oct 6 / Days 3 to 8 - Medjugorje
Experience the beauty and peace of this simple village. During your stay in
Medjugorje you will have the opportunity to share faith with pilgrims from all
over the world. Our local guide will accompany us throughout your stay.
On 2nd of October you will be present for Mirjana Soldo's apparition.
Here are some of the activities you'll be sharing with our fellow pilgrims: Each
morning at 10am we assemble at St. James Church for the English-language Mass (Feast days and Sundays English Mass is at Noon). Follow the path up
Apparition Hill where the visionaries first encountered Our Lady. Touch and
pray before the cross that commemorates the spot where Mary first appeared
to the visionaries.
Each evening at 6pm join the villagers and pilgrims to pray the rosary. The
apparition takes place at 6:40 daylight savings time, and then stay on for
Croatian Mass. Don't miss on Tuesdays and Saturdays Adoration of the
Blessed Sacrament and on Fridays Veneration of the Cross in the Church.
Each evening during Croatian Mass, there is the Blessing of the Sick and
blessing of the items you have with you.
Our guide will arrange meetings with the visionaries at their own homes pro-
vided that they are in Medjugorje during your trip, and pending their availa-
bility. We will have the opportunity to climb Krizevac Mountain, where in 1933
the villagers built a 30' high cross on the anniversary of Jesus' crucifixion. Visit and pray at "Blue Cross", which is a place of great healings and graces-
a very special place at the base of Apparition Hill. We will also visit Tihaljina
and the community of Cenacolo.
Oct 7 / Day 9 - Medjugorje -Rome
After English Mass and heartfelt farewell to Our Lady of Medjugorje, we leave
by motor coach for Split Airport where we will board our flight to Rome, Italy.
Upon arrival your escort will warmly greet you and welcome you to Italy.
Transfer to your hotel and enjoy dinner.
Oct 8 / Day 10 - Rome
This morning we depart for a sightseeing tour entitled "Christian Rome" which
includes major Basilicas and christina sights around Rome. It will include the
Basilica of St. Mary Major, one of the oldest shrines dedicated to the Blessed
Virgin, a shrine that contains a relic from the manger of the infant Jesus; the
Holy Stairs, the Basilica of St. John the Lateran, The Basilica of the St John in
Lateran, is the former residence of the popes prior to their return to Rome in 1377; St Paul Outside the Walls, which houses the remains of St Paul under
its main altar; and the Appian Way -- the oldest road from Roman times--plus
the famous Domino Quo Vadis Chapel; see the ancient Baths of Caracalla,
Arch of Drusus; Tomb of Celilia Metella, and the catacombs of St Callixtus
where the early Christians hid themselves to escape persecution. We will also
enjoy a visit to the Trevi fountain. Dinner and overnight.
Oct 9 / Day 11 - Rome (Papal Audience & Vatican Museum Tour)
Wake up in Eternal City, one of the greatest centers of Western Civilization
and the first truly cosmopolitan city on earth! It is also spiritual capital for all
the Catholics around the world. Today is truly a day we will have in our
minds for many years to come. This morning we go to Vatican City to attend
the weekly Papal Audience given by His Holiness pope ( we will find out who it
will be by Easter). Following the audience visit of the Vatican Museums, a
group of most impressive edifices with hundreds of galleries filled with art
treasures. See awe-inspiring relics and works of art donated throughout cen-
turies as tributes of faith. We'll cover The Tapestry Gallery, The Raphael
Rooms and the most overwhelming Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo's Master-
piece, restored mural of the Last Judgment. Later, enter the largest church in
Christendom St Peter's Basilica, built on the site where St Peter was mar-
tyred. Unsurpassed in beauty, a monument to the long history of the Catholic
Church, to which pilgrims come from around the world, St Peter's is the
grandest of the world's churches. Marvel Pieta and Bernini's amazing bronze
canopy. We will also visit the grave of Pope John Paul II located at the Vati-
can. Before dinner, we'll have some time at leisure, to explore your own
paths, to shop, or just to sit in one of the outside cafes and watch the world go by.
Oct 10/ Day 12 - Rome - Monte Cassino (St. Benedict) - San Giovan-
ni Rotondo (Padre Pio)
After breakfast we depart the Eternal City and head south east to visit the
Abbey of Montecassino, a beautiful town founded by St. Benedict in 529.
After visiting the Abbey and celebrating Mass we will continue to San Giovan-
ni Rotondo town best known for Padre Pio where we will enjoy our dinner and overnight.
Oct 11 / Day 13 - San Giovanni Rotondo - Monte Sant'Angel - San
Giovanni Rotondo
After celebrating Mass at the tomb of Padre Pio, we tour the sanctuary, see
the old church and the crucifix from which he received the stigmata in 1918.
You will see the confessional where Padre Pio spent innumerable hours with a
multitude of pilgrims, directing them on their journey toward God. Enjoy a
breathtaking view of the Cargano Peninsula and a visit to the Grotto of Mi-chael the Archangel. Six different popes, St Francis and at least four other
saints have knelt in prayer at this grotto, seeking the protection of St Michael.
A panoramic view of the ocean and the surrounding countryside awaits you at
this most celebrated shrine of early Christianity, a shrine consecrated by St
Michael himself in 490. Return to San Giovanni for devotions, reflection, and
a restful overnight.
Oct 12 / Day 14 - San Giovanni Rotondo - Lanciano - Loreto - Assisi
We will have breakfast at our hotel before we drive toward the Adriatic coast
to Lanciano where we will see the oldest Eucharistic Miracle and celebrate
Mass. Heading nother we stop in the great Marian shrine of Loreto to visit the
Holy House of Nazareth and the beautiful Madonna of Loreto. More than 50
popes have made a pilgrimage to the house transported by angels to this hill
in central Italy in 1294. Tradition has it that this is the house in which Mary
first prayed the Magnificat, in which Jesus grew to manhood, and in which the
Holy Family lived. Continue to Assisi, the hometown of St. Francis, for din-
ner and overnight.
Oct 13 / Day 15 - Assisi
Visit the tomb of St Francis. Explore the quaint hilltop birthplace of St Francis
that still retains something of the atmosphere of the early 1200s, the period
when St Francis began his ministry. Contained within the huge 13th-century
Basilica are many of the saint's possessions and a series of frescoes depicting
his life. You may kneel before the crucifix from which Jesus spoke to St Fran-
cis, asking him to rebuild His church. It was in St Mary of the Angels Basilica
where St Francis spent most of his life. Here we visit the Chapel, Portiuncola, the rose bush, and the cave where the saint retired for prayer. Stro ll the
medieval streets of the compact little town. After stopping at an outdoor cafe
with a view of an ancient Roman temple, we go to the Church of St Clare to
see the saint's incorrupt body. The foundress of the Order of Poor Clares
followed the teachings of St Francis by living a life of poverty and humility.
We will visit these two saints' tombs before dinner and retiring for the even-
ing.
Oct 14 / Day 16 - Assisi - Rome - USA
We bid farewell to a pilgrimage which will be in our memories and heart for a
long time to come. We depart Assisi for Rome Airport for our return flight to
the USA. We fondly say, Arrivederci Italia!

tors and are not agents or employees of 206 Tours. All coupons, receipts and tickets issued are subject to the terms and conditions
specified by suppliers. By utilizing the service of the suppliers, you agree that 206 Tours will not be liable for any change in flight or itinerary schedule, strikes, delay, acts of governments, fires, riots,

stances beyond its control. In circumstances where trip cancellations resulting from the inability for trip to depart as scheduled, such as cancel-
lations due to acts of war and/or terrorism, war, God, or nature takes place, 206 Tours is not liable for restitution. Though every effort will be made to follow the itinerary, it should be considered as an indication of
the tour, rather than a contract of places to be visited. Occasionally local religious holidays, national days, traffic conditions and other events may necessitate changes in the sequence of visits or the missing of certain
visits. We will have daily mass and strive to be in places as indicated. However, sometimes this is not possible as the site may not be available
for Mass or itinerary changes are forced upon us. In this case an alterna-tive site for Mass will be arranged. SPECIAL MEDICAL CONDITIONS You must report any disability

security, many countries have adopted practices to prevent international abductions of children. If a child will be traveling with adults other than the parents or with only one parent, it is recommended that a notarized
letter be written by the parents or non-traveling parent granting authoriza-tion to travel including the dates of travel. We also suggest you contact the appropriate consulate and airlines because they may have additional
