Holy Land Pilgrimage - WIll Never Be Forgotten

A Ten Day Pilgrimage to Israel visiting site of significance around Jerusalem and Galilee. It was a marvellous experience with activities ranging from the spiritual (visiting sites of importance to Christians and Jews) to the relaxing (floating on the Dead Sea). The trip was well lead with an experienced leader and a superb local guide.

Pilgrimage to Turkey

Although this was in part a holiday, my time in Turkey would be better described as a pilgrimage. With a group of other Christians from the UK we visited the historical sights of the seven churches described in chapters 2 & 3 in the last book of the bible, Revelation. It was brilliant to be close to where the people were to whom the 'letters' in Revelation were originally written. We also visited some other non-biblical Greek and Roman ruins ...

It was brilliant to be close to where the people were to whom the 'letters' in Revelation were originally written. We also visited some other non-biblical Greek and Roman ruins - all very inspiring! We finished out 'tour' with a couple of days in Istanbul visiting the sights there - a great way to end our trip!

McCabe Pilgrimages are simply the best people to go with on such a trip as I have just been on. Their organisation and care is second to none. Their attention to detail is superb and being so well looked after allowed be to have just the most amazing time. This is my second time with McCabe and I would definitely recommend them to other seeking to go on pilgrimage to the Holy Land, Turkey, Greece, Italy, the Holy Land or the Middle East!

Escorted group travel

I went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land with other members of my church. We spent ten days travelling around Israel viewing different religious sites and places of interest. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and I gained a lot of information about the Holy Land and its relationwhip with Christianity.

Magnificent McCabe Pilgrimage

I really enjoyed my holiday in Israel from start to finish, it was truely wonderful in every way. Going to the places that we read about in the Bible brought it so much more to life - and we saw so many places whilst there and learnt so much. The hotels were great, and the food was so delicious both in the hotels and lunch stops. The organisation was second to none and our guide so knowledgeable and helpful and made a wonderful time even better...

My tour operator, McCabe Pilgrimages cannot be faulted. The itinary was full, interesting and so well organised, and timed to perfection. I really do not know how they managed it all so well. I would recommend their services to anyone without reservation. A wonderful holiday indeed.

Very well organised and very full programme of events.

10 days covering Jerusalem, Masada & the Dead Sea, Bethlehem, Jericho & the Jordan Valley, Nazareth, Capernaum and Caesarea. Rose early each morning to avoid queues (very wise). Home to Hotel by about 4.30/5pm. Feedback session at 6/6.15pm ready for evening meal at 7pm. Day spent at Masada & the Dead Sea was optional - so some chose to "chill out" at Jerusalem on this day (we didn't). I would have liked one free day at the Ron Beach Hotel to ...

I would have liked one free day at the Ron Beach Hotel to just relax and recharge the batteries. That would have made the trip perfect - otherwise 9/10 - excellent.

Fabulous. McCabe's specialist expertise & relationships with local providers really shone through. Covered lots more sights without ever feeling rushed, and tended to pity other groups being herded around & harangued by their guides.

A superb 10-day Pilgrimage visit to Gallilee & Judea in Israel. A great mix of touring incredible locations, reflection on what these places have meant to so many people, commentary on what we saw of the current situation. All enabled by McCabe's specialist knowledge & relationships with local hotels, lunch-spots and guides.
