Two lands in one pilgrimage — the Marian shrines of Bavaria, then the roads Jesus walked.
It opens in Munich and at Altötting, Germany's most important Marian shrine, with Oberammergau and the cathedral city of Regensburg on the Danube, before flying on to Tel Aviv. In the Holy Land the days run from the Mount of Olives and the Holy Sepulchre to Bethlehem, Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee, with Jericho and the Dead Sea, and a free day in Jerusalem before the journey home.
