What TripCatholic is
TripCatholic is a Catholic pilgrimage and travel guide: a website at www.tripcatholic.com and an app for iPhone and Android. It maps the Catholic places worth visiting around the world and explains each one. Most are holy sites: churches, basilicas, cathedrals, shrines and monasteries. It also includes other notable Catholic places, such as Catholic cafés and places to stay. For each place it covers its history, the saints connected to it, what to look for inside, Mass, confession and adoration times, visiting hours, and how to get there. Its tagline is "Discover the Catholic world."
