Thank you for visiting Mater Dei Tours. It is our mission to help bring souls closer to God by providing Catholic Pilgrimages to some of the world's most memorable and faith-inspiring sites.
Our official pilgrimages are accompanied by a Catholic Priest and our experienced Tour Escorts. A spiritual program consisting daily Mass, daily Rosary, Chaplet of Divine Mercy, Meditations and the Sacrament of Reconciliation compliment every pilgrimage. Although we are very authentic about our pilgrimages, Mater Dei also likes to combine history, culture and lots of fun with every tour as well.
You may also view our testimonials, find out more about us and register for “The Pilgrim’s Way,” our newsletter (on the right column). And don't forget, Mater Dei specializes in providing parishes, choirs and private groups with their own custom spiritual journey to virtually any Vatican approved pilgrimage site.

COVID TRAVEL UPDATE: Israeli doctors have concluded that the vaccines did not produce the effect they desired and therefore Israel is now open to unvaccinated pilgrims as well as vaccinated! Not even a negative covid PCR test is need (most countries have followed suit, except for a few). Call Mater Dei for more information.

Dubrovnik, Medjugorje, & a wee bit of Dublin

Join Fr. Eric Nielsen, Pastor of the St. Paul's Catholic Center at the University of Wisconsin, and Juan Landa, President of Mater Dei Tours, on this wonderful pilgrimage to Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Ireland. We will visit the gorgeous historic city on the blue Adriatic Sea coast, Dubrovnik. Witness the beauty of Kravica Falls, and see the coastal town of Split. The main purpose of our Marian Pilgrimage is to have a spiritual retreat at Medjugorje, in Bosnia & Herzegovina. The Vatican has cleared the way for Catholic Pilgirmages to visit Medjugorje. Mater Dei Tours has heard the call to bring pilgrims there, to learn about the apparitions, stories and the messages from the "Beautiful Lady". Will you join us?

We are not done! There is a wee bit of Dublin, Ireland to show you! Perhaps a wee taste for a future Irish pigrlimage? Only God Knows! Won't you join us?

As with all the Mater Dei pilgrimages, a solid spiritual program companies accompanies the pilgrimage. Daily Mass, Daily Rosary, Daily Chaplet, Daily Meditations and Talks, and more. Plus many surprises in store (not listed in the brochure).

Answer the call! Come to Medjugorje with Mater Dei!
