Day 1: Sep 25, Thur, Depart Boston

Board your flight for the start of your pilgrimage to Italy, with compli-

mentary meals and beverages served on board.

Day 2: Sep 26, Fri, Arrive Assisi

We will arrive in Rome and be met by our tour escort. Once we’ve

collected our bags and boarded the bus, we will travel across the Ital-

ian countryside toward Assisi. Once there, we’ll gather for Mass, have

some time for rest, and enjoy dinner prior to a restful overnight.

Day 3: Sep 27, Sat, Assisi Walking Tour (The Life of a Saint, that

inspired a Holy Father)

Today is a very special day, as we will spend a full day touring the

home of the Saint that inspired our Holy Father. Pope Francis chose his

name in admiration of the Saint of Nature and Servant to the Poor.

Known for being a humble man himself, Pope Francis spent most of his

life denying the luxuries of life, and preferring to live in simplicity and

humility. Following breakfast, we will begin a tour of Assisi. Visit the

tomb of St Francis. Explore the quaint hilltop birthplace of St Francis

that still retains something of the atmosphere of the early 1200s, the

period when St Francis began his ministry. Contained within the huge

13th-century Basilica are many of the saint's possessions and a series

of frescoes depicting his life. In the Basilica of St. Claire you may kneel

before the crucifix from which Jesus spoke to St Francis, asking him to

rebuild His church. It was in St Mary of the Angels Basilica where St

Francis spent most of his life. Here we visit the Chapel, Portiuncola, the

rose bush, and the cave where the saint retired for prayer. Stroll the

medieval streets of the compact little town. You will have some free

time to shop or eat lunch at an outdoor cafe with a view of an ancient

Roman temple, we go to the Church of St. Clare to see the saint's in-

corrupt body. The foundress of the Order of Poor Clares followed the teachings of St Francis by living a life of poverty and humility. We will

visit these two saints' tombs before dinner and retiring for the night.

Day 4: Sep 28, Sun, Assisi – Orvieto – Subiaco - Rome

We depart Assisi and travel to Orvieto. The path connects two histori-

cal cities of common origin, Orvieto and Bolsena, which are landmarks

of the Eucharistic Miracle of Bolsena. It is believed, between 1263 and

1264 in the town of Tuscia Lazio, the consecrated host began to bleed

during a celebration of Mass by the priest, Pietro da Praga. It is said he

was doubtful of the true sanctity of the consecrated host and wine.

The blood that exuded from the host marble altar, stained the linen

beneath, and today, Orvieto and Bolsena split these holy relics. We’ll

visit the Cathedral of Orvieto, a large 14th century Roman Catholic

Cathedral which was constructed under the orders of Pope Urban IV to

commemorate and provide a suitable home for the Corporal of Bolse-

na. We later continue toward Subiaco, where we will see the Monastery

of St. Benedict. Subiaco enshrines the cave in which St. Benedict

lived as a hermit before he organized his first monastic community.

Located amid spectacular natural scenery, the monastery is still active

but welcomes visitors to pray at Benedict's cave and explore the

church covered in beautiful medieval frescoes. Among the many fasci-

nating frescoes is a portrait of St. Francis of Assisi painted during his

lifetime. We’ll continue to Rome for dinner and overnight.

Day 5: Sep 29, Mon, Ancient Rome Tour – Half-Day

We’ll enjoy a half day tour of Ancient Rome. Our guide will explain the

history of this beautiful part of Rome, with views of Palatine Hill, the

Roman Forum and the Coliseum.

Day 6: Sep 30, Tue, Rome – Free Day in Rome

Wake up in Eternal City, one of the greatest centers of Western Civi-

lization and the first truly cosmopolitan city on earth! It is also spir-

itual capital for all the Catholics around the world. Enjoy Rome at your

leisure. Dinner and overnight at your Hotel.

Day 7: Oct 1, Wed, Papal Audience and the Vatican Museums

Today is truly a day we will have in our minds for many years to come.

This morning we go to Vatican City to attend the weekly Papal Audi-

ence or Blessing given by His Holiness Pope Francis (pending papal

schedule). Following the audience visit of the Vatican Museums, a

group of most impressive edifices with hundreds of galleries filled with

art treasures. See awe-inspiring relics and works of art donated

throughout centuries as tributes of faith. We'll cover The Tapestry Gal-

lery, The Raphael Rooms and the most overwhelming Sistine Chapel,

Michelangelo's Masterpiece, restored mural of the Last Judgment. Lat-

er, enter the largest church in Christendom St Peter's Basilica, built on

the site where St Peter was martyred. Unsurpassed in beauty, a monu-

ment to the long history of the Catholic Church, to which pilgrims come

from around the world, St Peter's is the grandest of the world's church-

es. Marvel at the Pieta and Bernini's amazing bronze canopy. We will

also visit the grave of Pope John Paul II located at the Vatican. Before

dinner, we'll have some time at leisure, to explore your own paths, to

shop, or just to sit in one of the outside cafes & watch the world go by.

Day 8: Oct 2, Thur, Diaconate Ordination Mass of the North

American College – Afternoon touring Christian Rome

An early breakfast and transfer for the Ordination Mass of the North

American College at St. Peter's Basilica. Afterward, we depart for a

sightseeing tour entitled "Christian Rome" which includes: the Basilica

of St. Mary Major, one of the oldest shrines dedicated to the Blessed

Virgin, a shrine that contains a relic from the manger of the infant Je-

sus; the Holy Stairs, the Basilica of St. John the Lateran, The Basilica

of the St John in Lateran, is the former residence of the popes prior to

their return to Rome in 1377; St Paul Outside the Walls, which houses

the remains of St Paul under its main altar; and the Appian Way -- the

oldest road from Roman times--plus the famous Domine Quo Vadis

Chapel; see the ancient Baths of Caracalla, Arch of Drusus; Tomb of

Celilia Metella, and the catacombs of St Callixtus where the early Chris-

tians hid themselves to escape persecution. We will also enjoy a visit

to the Trevi fountain. Dinner and overnight.

Day 9: Oct 3, Fri, Morning Diaconal Mass - Transfer for depar-

ture

We’ll attend the Diaconal Mass this morning, prior to our departure this

afternoon for the airport and our return to Boston.

complaints and compensation should be addressed to the carrier.

SEAT ASSIGNMENT Random seats are assigned for all group participants.

advise us of such request at the time of booking, we will make an effort to

accommodate you, however we cannot guarantee. If you must have specific

ture and arrange the seat assignment with your airline's gate agent. Bulkhead

and exit row seating can never be requested prior to the day of departure. 206

rooms. A limited number of single rooms are also available at a supple-

mental rate.

PRIVATE ROOMS and SINGLE SUPPLEMENT A limited number

of single rooms is available (on request basis only) at the supplement

price. Single rooms provide privacy, but they are in some hotels smaller

than twin or double rooms and sometimes may be poorly located,

especially in the older hotels. As a general ratio we are able to confirm

10% of the total number of group participants in single rooms. If ratio is

higher special supplements may be implemented for something referred

to "single in double room" at an additional rate to the single supplement

rate listed. If passengers are traveling alone and wish to have 206 Tours

assigning a same sex roommate for you then you will be responsible to

pay the cost of the single room.

which are served at your hotel or local restaurants. Beverages are not

included with dinners where not indicated. In case you chose not to have

tee, we will try and accommodate each special meal request on flights as

well as at hotels. Please advise of such a request at the time of booking.

We can not guarantee that special meal/diet requests can be met.

BAGGAGE Each tour participant is permitted to bring one checked

suitcase, one small carry on bag, and one personal item (i.e. purse, laptop

case). In general, the airlines permit 1 checked bag. Please check with

your specific airline to verify the size and weight allowances. 206 Tours

pant's belongings.

RESPONSIBILITY CLAUSE 206 Tours acts as a tour operator. The

suppliers providing transportation, sightseeing arrangements and hotel

accommodations for the tour program are independent contractors and

are not agents or employees of 206 Tours. All coupons, receipts and

tickets issued are subject to the terms and conditions specified by suppli-

ers. By utilizing the service of the suppliers, you agree that 206 Tours

will not be liable for any change in flight or itinerary schedule, strikes,

delay, acts of governments, fires, riots, theft, pilferage, epidemics,

quarantine, medical or customs regulations, accident, loss, injury, or

damage to you or to those traveling with you in connection with any

accommodations, transportation or any other services or resulting

directly or indirectly from any occurrence or

conditions beyond its control, including defects in vehicles, breakdown

in equipment, thefts, delay or cancellation of or changes in itinerary for

any act, omission, or event during the time you are on board the aircraft.

Neither 206 Tours and/or agents of the airlines concerned are to be held

responsible for the late arrival of passengers at airports or hotels due to

inclement weather, nor are they to be held liable for payment or any

refund for transfers or unused hotel accommodations or meals occa-

sioned by such late arrivals at the hotels holding rooms as confirmed

itineraries. Passengers must bear all such losses or expenses. To guard

against unforeseen health or other circumstances, we recommend you

purchase our optional travel insurance. 206 Tours is not responsible for

circumstances beyond its control. In circumstances where trip cancella-

tions resulting from the inability for trip to depart as scheduled, such as

cancellations due to acts of war and/or terrorism, war, God, or nature

takes place, 206 Tours is not liable for restitution. Though every effort

will be made to follow the itinerary, it should be considered as an

indication of the tour, rather than a contract of places to be visited.

Occasionally local religious holidays, national days, traffic conditions

and other events may necessitate changes in the sequence of visits or the

missing of certain visits. We will have daily mass and strive to be in

places as indicated. However, sometimes this is not possible as the site

may not be available for Mass or itinerary changes are forced upon us. In

this case an alternative site for Mass will be arranged.

SPECIAL MEDICAL CONDITIONS You must report any disability

requiring special attention to 206 Tours at the time of registration for any

tour. We make every effort to accommodate disabled passengers by

reserving for them wheelchair assistance at airports and handicap acces-

sible rooms where available, however, we cannot guarantee and are not

responsible for any denial of services by carriers, hotels, restaurants, or

other independent suppliers. Be aware that all of our tours are operated

outside the U.S. where the Americans with Disabilities Act is not appli-

cable and facilities for disabled individuals are limited. Most transporta-

tion services, including the touring motor coaches, are not equipped with

wheelchair ramps or lifts. We regret that we cannot provide individual

assistance to any tour participant for walking, dining, while in their

other personal needs. A qualified and physically able companion(s) must

accompany travelers who need special assistance. It is the passenger's

responsibility to arrange for such assistance prior to making their reser-

vations. Motorized scooters are unsuitable and impossible to accommo-

date. 206 Tours is not responsible for any medical condition that occurs

prior, during or after the tour. Additionally, airlines are not able to

guarantee or provide assistance for disabled travelers including special

seating. Pregnancy, Breast-Feeding, and Traveling Pregnant women

considering international travel should be advised to evaluate the poten-

tial problems associated with international travel as well as the quality of

medical care available at the destination and during transit. A pregnant

woman is advised to travel with at least one companion; during her

pregnancy, her level of comfort may be adversely affected by traveling.

YOUNG TRAVELERS Travelers who are less than 18 years old on the

departure date must be accompanied by an adult. Due to heightened securi-

ty, many countries have adopted practices to prevent international abduc-

tions of children. If a child will be traveling with adults other than the

parents or with only one parent, it is recommended that a notarized letter be

written by the parents or non-traveling parent granting authorization to

travel including the dates of travel. We also suggest you contact the appro-

priate consulate and airlines because they may have additional require-

ments. For the purposes of 206 Tours trips an infant is defined as anyone
