Over the course of nine days, pilgrims will discover the highlights of London and the south of England culminating in a pilgrimage to Canterbury Cathedral, the mother church of the Worldwide Anglican Communion. Pilgrims will explore two pilgrimage routes to Canterbury including the traditional route from London and the “Old Way,” a recently rediscovered pilgrimage route dating to the 14th century. This is largely a bus pilgrimage with a few optional half-day walks, including a walk into Canterbury. Other highlights include a visit to London’s famed cathedrals, Stonehenge, monastic ruins, and the scenery of the English countryside. The group will meet with locals including the local parish rectors, a leader of the British Pilgrimage Trust, and the clerics of Canterbury Cathedral.
