Since 1957, Unitours has a history of leading pilgrimage to Italy, Israel, France, Portugal, and other parts of the world, as well as Special Events. Our experience with religious leaders and parishioners has given us the understanding that a pilgrimage is not just another tour.
Our tour professionals involve themselves in every detail of the planning and execution of your trip, including the appropriate places to go, the best places to stay and the most interesting sights to see. You can be confident that our experienced staff and partners, located throughout the world, will be with your group every step of the way.
At Unitours, we have an unwavering commitment to provide the best values available. We know that comfort and peace of mind are as important as price when it comes to selecting transportation, accommodations or creating itineraries. We don’t cut corners using circuitous routes, inconvenient facilities or unestablished carriers just to get cheap prices. Instead, we use our 6 decades of experience, as well as our exceptional purchasing power, to provide your group with the very most for their travel dollar.” The end result is a well-planned, well-run pilgrimage tour that will be remembered fondly by all.
Though the “Passion of Our Lord” has been told countless times
over the past two millennia, especially in live performances near Easter
season, the Oberammergau story is quite unique. The date was the year 1634
and the 30 years’ war was raging in what is now modern-day Germany. On
top of the horrors of war, the majority of greater Europe was still
experiencing the ravages of the plague, which was taking lives daily. In an
attempt to plead to God’s endless mercy, the town of Oberammergau
promised to hold a “Passion Play” every 10 years from that date
forward if the death would stop. They performed the very first, literally
over a graveyard. The death they were experiencing soon faded and ever since
that time, they have kept that promise and performed their “Passion
Play” every ten years, with only a brief interruption during WWII and
a delay following covid.
The performances are slated to start in May of 2030, ending the first week
in October of that same year. With the current spiritual state of the world,
Unitours expects the tickets to sell out very quickly and thus is urging all
those reading this to act quickly to secure your group’s place at this
unique and powerful live performance!
Why Unitours?
