- 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.

So whether you are a past pilgrim or considering becoming one, we encourage you to enrich your life with travel that is relevant! Your travels will never be the same!

Keep the promises you make to yourself!!!
Fulfill your resolution to go to the Holy Land on a true Catholic Pilgrimage! See for yourself why so many Mater Dei pilgrims return with a renewed love for Jesus and His Church. A promise: The Holy Mass, the rosary, the Holy Scriptures will never be the same! Your life cannot be the same after you experience our pilgrimage! Learn, hear, see, touch, taste and experience the Holy Land!! No words are good enough to describe the experience of this pilgrimage!!
- 2026 dates to be announced soon
Security note: Due to the acts of violence in the Holy Land, Mater Dei has cancelled all Holy Land pilgrimages for 2024, 2025 and 1st part of 2026. We are praying for peace so that we can return in the second half of 2026. We hope to start in November 2026.
Please pray for all the innocent victims in Israel and Palestine. Please pray for the Christian community (which is mostly of Palestinian origin), caught in the middle of all this turmoil, especially those trapped in Gaza with nowhere to go. Please pray for our Holy Land staff and their families there. THANK YOU!
Remember. Mater Dei ® pilgrimages are True Catholic Pilgrimages like no other! They are worth the wait!
