About this experience

Travel from San Sebastian to Lourdes on a private spiritual journey tailored to your needs. This experience allows you to explore the Sanctuary at your own pace, guided through the story of Bernadette and the apparitions. You will have time for prayer at the Grotto, access to the spring water for drinking and washing, and the opportunity to light a candle in the Chapels of Light, with a small candle provided for your personal intention. The itinerary can be customized based on your preferences, including attendance at Mass, extended silent prayer, or visits to the basilicas. This tour is suited for pilgrims, families, and those looking for a reflective experience rather than a typical sightseeing trip.

Itinerary

1

Donostia - San Sebastian

Your pilgrimage begins with private pickup from your hotel or accommodation in San Sebastian. During the journey to Lourdes, your guide will introduce the story of Bernadette, the apparitions and the meaning of the spiritual gestures you will experience at the Sanctuary.

2

Crypte de la Basilique de l’Immaculee Conception.

Step into one of the most intimate and prayerful spaces in Lourdes. Located just above the Grotto and beneath the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, the Crypt was one of the first places of worship built in response to the apparitions. Take a few quiet moments here for personal prayer, reflection or simply to experience the stillness of the Sanctuary away from the crowds.
