The drive to Lourdes is two hours from Toulouse through some beautiful countryside. It is located at the foothills of the Pyrenee Mountain range. With your English-speaking driver guide, you'll learn much about this history and culture of the area.

Lourdes SanctuaryUpon arrival in Lourdes, you will visit sanctuaries. Not only will you see the grotto, but will also visit the three churches that were built on site, one on top of the other.

Following the reports that in 1858, Our Lady of Lourdes had appeared to Bernadette Soubirous (14 years of age) on 18 occasions, Lourdes developed into a major place of Roman Catholic pilgrimage and of miraculous healings. Your guide will take you on the footsteps of Bernadette to first discover the family house when the father ran a mill and then on to the Cachot, a tiny cell in which the family lived during harder times.

Your Lourdes tour will end with a return to your Toulouse hotel.
