About this listen

 If you have an aging parent and want to gift them a trip to Rome for a faith-based pilgrimage, this book may be a helpful resource. Though we faced concerns over expenses, mobility issues, and travel, our trip was a wonderful success, so much so that I felt that I should write this book and share the experience and advice with others. Many may choose to take pre-packaged tours, I find them to be expensive and rarely meet the needs of those with mobility issues. They rush through sites and have schedules that may be too rigorous for an older parent. I hope the advice I share here will help others considering a similar adventure.

This IS NOT a vacation travel guide. Popular sites like The Trevi Fountain or The Spanish Steps are not even mentioned. Though I and my siblings are not particularly "religious" people, my mother is devoutly Catholic. At 80 years old, and with emerging mobility issues, my siblings and I knew this may be our last opportunity to gift my mother an experience like this.

This book covers accommodations, pre-planning, accessibility options, restaurant advice, navigating language issues, obtaining tickets, seeing the pope in person, visiting important historical churches, transportation options, and more. The assumption is that the child of a parent would act as a chaperone to ensure their parent has the best possible experience. Christianity Europe
