World Youth Day Through the Years: 5 Highlights
The global celebration started by Pope John Paul II has been uniting and inspiring people of all ages for decades.
Interested in traveling to Rome for the Jubilee Year in 2025?
Take your group on a life-changing trip to World Youth Day in beautiful Seoul, South Korea. Our comprehensive travel package, combined with expert travel leadership and spiritual direction, means you can have a singular focus on your ministry.
When it comes to World Youth Day, just getting there is not enough. The travel logistics, hotel selections, guides, and planning all make a huge difference in your WYD experience!
With past WYD experience, and as experts in Catholic pilgrimage, we know what it takes to make a trip truly exceptional. It’s why we travel to the host site multiple times in advance, select the best hotels that will put your group in the heart of the action, and offer dedicated guides for the trip.
Most of all, our entire mission is to minister to group leaders like you. It’s why we call ourselves a ministry, not a pilgrimage company! We want to enable you and your group to grow closer to God through every experience.
Always be close to the action by staying in centrally-located hotels that will have you rested and ready for each day’s full schedule. We have options for every budget.
Get the lay of the land before the big week! Go with Verso and other group leaders to get comfortable with every aspect of the trip beforehand.
Get the most out of your efforts to gather your group and raise money with support, custom designs, and media kits from Verso.
Airfare to and from the host country, ground transportation, and handling of all travel logistics are completely taken care of by Verso.
Our standard package includes a tiered system for free leader registrations. Take your priest, sponsor a pilgrim, or use it for yourself - It’s our way to make sure that WYD is accessible to as many pilgrims as possible.
Make sure you don’t miss a second of everything that’s happening at WYD. A dedicated guide will ensure you’re always up to speed on what’s going on and the opportunities available for you and your group.
All breakfasts and most lunches and dinners are included with your package.
