The Catholic Travel Guide
If you love being Catholic and love to travel, then this site has been designed for you. Providing trustworthy, first-hand information, reviews and advice.  But even if you are not Catholic, we hope you will draw inspiration from this website and all are welcome. We are constantly updating this website with news and travel related items you might not find anywhere else......so visit often.

The Catholic Travel Guide is not a travel agency or tour operator, so no worries......our advice is completely un-biased. 

Use our easy Navigation Menu at the top and bottom of each page, or if you know what you are looking for then the Google Search box at the top each page will help you get there in a hurry. 

The "Destinations" link will take you to various countries (including the U.S. and Canada) popular with Catholic travelers--and some little-known destinations as well. 

We are constantly adding new destinations and updating the those already listed on the site.
The "Trip Planner" section is a great place to start:  you will find group versus independent travel, how to prepare for your trip and some very good travel tips to help maximize your travel experience.  

Check out our blog for latest news, travel suggestions and Mass times or visit the Catholic Travel Forum for tour company reviews and to help promote an exchange of ideas and suggestions. We invite you to join the discussion: ask questions or help others by giving your reviews or advice.Our 

Our Catholic Travel store features some books and DVD's carefully selected to reflect the wonders of our Catholic faith and the many destinations available. 

The Travel Accessories link will help you find some of those useful and often hard to find items that will make your travels easier. We have chosen Magellan not only because of their wide assortment of items (some hard to find elsewhere) but also because of their quality. Be sure to check it out. 

We welcome your input, so if you have any articles to submit to us, photos to share with others, comments regarding the places you have visited let us hear from you. 

You can help others better enjoy their travels by offering your comments or reviews.
