I liked how the tour was organized, the guide was very punctual, explained things well, congratulations 💯 recommended, visiting where the saint lived was unexpected!

Perfect, very spiritual, although very fast. We need a little more time because for the blessing you have to wait in line and you are limited on the tour.

The guide answered all my questions and taught me a lot about the history and the sanctuary of Lourdes. Thank you for this special moment.
