"The desire to be a pilgrim is deeply rooted in human nature. To stand where those that we reverence once stood, to see the very sites where they were born and toiled and died, gives us a feeling of mystical contact with them and a practical expression of our homage."

~Runciman in A history of the Crusades

 

Since 1970 Far Horizons has planned and offered spiritually inspiring and thought provoking faith-based travel programs to organizations, churches and ministries in the United States and Canada. We have well trained experienced professionals in various countries who specialize in arranging group travel for like-minded Faith sharing individuals with one single purpose to travel and re-energize their belief and commitment to their faith. Our pilgrimages cover all five continents. Europe's most popular destinations are Italy, France, Greece/Turkey, Spain, Portugal, Germany, England, Switzerland, Ireland, Poland, and The Holy Land. The Marian Shrines of our Lady in Fatima, Lourdes and Knock have been very popular destinations that every pilgrim hopes and prays to visit at least once in their lifetime.

 

The idea of holiness, both of spirit and place, is as old as man himself. Our faith-based journeys combine Old World flavor and historical religious landmarks that are combined together to enhance the touring experience in a most significant way. Our guides are specially trained to only accompany and lead pilgrimages; they are scholars in their own right. Their knowledge and sensitivity to the nature of the faith-based journey makes the religious history in all these awe-inspiring places come alive. We make sure that our programs take our visitors to the world's greatest religious sites, not just to see, but to experience them.

 

We have created our faith-based program with the knowledge and experience gathered during the past three decades. We will be pleased to create a special itinerary for your group that meets your specific needs and interest.

 

"....and many peoples shall come, and say, come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; that He may teach us His ways and that we may walk in His paths'. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem"

~(Isaiah 2:3-4)
