2nd International Congress of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimages - Krakow, 8-11.11.2018
The II International Congress of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimages started on the 8th November 2018 with a Holy Mass celebrated by the priests that participated in the congress for the whole group of circa 100 touroperators from 30 countries in the new built Sanctuary of St. John Paull II in Biale Morza - Krakow.
At 10 a.m. we started working (lectures, presentations). We had 250 persons in the audience: 100 participants from 30 countries and 150 guest from Krakow and Poland.
2nd International Congress of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimages - the afternoon of the 2nd day (8th November) was dedicated to an expo, a tourism fair, where the buyers (about 100 travel tour operators from more than 30 countries worldwide) could meet local, national and international offer (there were about 40 stands). Thousands of talks, opinions and experiences shared and expressed.
After the presentations, lectures and expo day we started our study tour (fam trip) in Krakow and surroundings. On the 9th November we went to visit the former German Nazi Concentration and Extermination camp Auschwitz-Birkenau. This visit is always very sad but absolutely necessary.
After having visited Auschwitz-Birkenau in the morning we went to Czestochowa in the afternoon. We visited the most important shrine in Poland - Holy Virgin Mary called by the Poles "Black Madonna".
On the 3rd day of our congress-fam trip we had 3 visits: the first one was to Kalwaria Zebrzydowska, the shrine of the Virgin Mary on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
After having visited Kalwaria Zebrzydowska we went to Wadowice to see the birthday place and the parish of Karol Wojtyla - Pope John Paul the II. Time is running, eternity is waiting...
Our 3rd day finished in Wieliczka Salt Mine: we visited this fantastic place (also on the UNESCO World Heritage List) and we had a gala dinner with a concert of Polish folk musice. We enjoyed it very much!
On the last day of our congress we have visited the most beautiful city of Poland - Krakow.
It was 11th of November - Polish National Independence Day, what is more, this year we could have seen, how Poles celebrated their 100th anniversary of Independance dating back to the 11th Nov 1918.

THE BIGGEST EVENT PROMOTING INCOMING TOURISM TO POLAND
Dear Friends!
We are happy to announce that the 2nd International Congress of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimages "Following the Footsteps of the St Faustina Kowalska" will take place in Krakow, from 1th to 12th November 2018. Krakow and Malopolska Region have a great potential as a religious tourism and pilgrimage destination. Every year they are visited by millions of pilgrims and religious tourists, just let us mention the last World Youth Day which took place here in Krakow in 2016, but also the the 1st Edition of the Congress in 2017, that has also been a great success.
The 2017 edition was attended by about 200 tour operators and tour agents from 30 countiries and has already become the most important event in religious tourism branch in Central and Eastern Europe. The highest number represented Spain, followed by Italy, but also other countries such as Japan, Malaysia, Paraguay, Argentina, Mexico, USA, Canada, Israel and many more. The attendants expressed their gratitude for the organisation of such event, mentioning also the professionalism of the organisation and valued the opportunities that Krakow, Malopolska Region and Poland have to offer. The honorary guests of the Congress were also Fátima and San Giovanni Rotondo.
You can check some photos here: www.icortap.com/en/gallery and www.facebook.com/ICoRTaP/ and on www.instagram.com/icortap_congress, and some comments here: www.icortap.com/en/opinions"We saw with our own eyes how this new event has fit the calendar of events in Krakow: religious tourism professionals is what was needed" - says the organiser of the Congress Ernest Miroslaw, the owner of Ernesto Travel - the leading incoming tourism tour operator from Krakow. "We are pretty sure that the 2nd edition will be even bigger, with more participation of the regional and national organisations and that there will be more attendants from all over the World who will come to learn how to offer trips and pilgrimages to Krakow, Malopolska Region and Poland. Last year edition, despite being the first one, attracted 200 attendants. My aim for the second edition is 500 participants. I hope that next time there will be more non-European attendands, so we start promoting this event much earlier.
The Congress will be opened on the 8th November, by the both secular and clerical authorities of Krakow. An opening Holy Mass will be celebrated, followed by speeches, lectures and a workshop with the representatives of the local sanctuaries and tourist attractions. 9th, 10th and 11th November will be a chance for the guests from around the world to visit Krakow and Malopolska Region (Krakow Old Town, John Paul II Center, Divine Mercy Sanctuary, Salt Mine in Wieliczka, former German Nazi Concentration Camp Auschwitz-Birkenau, the church and museum of Wadowice - Karol Wojtyla’s birthplace, the Basilic in Kalwaria Zebrzydowska and of course the Black Madonna Sanctuary in Czestochowa).

Ernesto Travel, Conhpol and Grupa Kęty are winners of this year’s Małopolska Business Award in the categories of small, medium and large entrepreneur. The special prize, in turn, was awarded to the Kraków Technology Park. It is these companies that are the leaders of entrepreneurship in the region - they create trends, set development directions for others and without complexes compete on foreign markets. During the ceremonial gala the prizes were given to the winners by the Marshall of Małopolska, Wojciech Kozak: "The Małopolska Economic Award is an award dedicated to those, without which the economic development of Małopolska would not be possible. Their success testifies to the fact that our region has significant economic potential and great development opportunities "- said the deputy speaker during the gala.
The goal of the award, since its foundation in 2009 is to promote the best entrepreneurs from Małopolska and to inspire their development, promote pro-investment attitudes and concrete innovative achievements and increase competitiveness among entrepreneurs.
The winner of the Małopolska Business Award 2017 in the Small Entrepreneur category was Ernesto Travel company: the company has been operating on the Małopolska market since 2006.

This event, although organized for the first time, has become the most important and the biggest event on the market of meetings of incoming tourism professionals to Poland.

You created a hugely successful event and you should all be very proud of what you have achieved. Please don’t listen to any moans that you might get. Yes it was hard work but that is what we were there for, to see and do as much as possible in a short time.
Once again, many, many thanks

Again thank you for those five days.
Sincerely.
Fr. Jos Daems.
Dear Ernest,
Thank you very much for the organization of this congress. It was my first trip to Poland and I was surprised by the beauty of the city of Krakow.
The visits in French were very great, with each time a very good tour guide. The quality of the hotel was excellent, and the restaurants and food as well.
Maybe just a few comments :
-the service in the restaurants (especially the first lunch on Thursday and the last dinner on Saturday) was too slow, and it was too bad that on Thursday we did not have the time to visit the Divine Mercy Sanctuary. But thankfully we could visit it on Saturday !
-The translation in the bus was for the first day only in Spanish, and it was sometimes a bit frustrating not to understand what was saying. But then on the following day, we had the translation in English as well.
I hope you are fine after this busy week !!!
Thank you to all the members of your team as well.
I am waiting for our next work collaboration.
Kind regards,
Aline

Dear Friends!
We are happy to announce that the 1st International Congress of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimages "Following the Footsteps of the Saint Pope John Paul II" will take place in Krakow, from 8th to 12th November 2017. Please feel invited, by prof. Jacek Majchrowski, the President of Krakow. The City of Krakow is the official partner of the Congress. Also His Em. Card. Stanislaw Dziwisz confirmed his presence. Jacek Krupa - Marshal of the Małopolska Region, Marek Olszewski - President of the Polish Tourist Organization and Mons. Marek Jedraszewski Archbishop of Krakow have assumped the honorary patronage over the Congress.
Krakow and Malopolska Region have a great potential as a religious tourism and pilgrimage destination. Every year they are visited by millions of pilgrims and religious tourists, just let us mention the last World Youth Day which took place here in Krakow in 2016. These numbers are reflected in city’s and country’s profits and also new work places.
"We think there is a space and need to organize a new event in Krakow: a branch meeting of specialists from the religious tourism and pilgrimages market" - says Ernest Miroslaw, the organizer of the Congress, the owner of a local incoming tour operator Ernesto Travel which is a leader in religious tourism. "Currently no such event is organized in Central- and Eastern Europe. I think it can be a perfect preparative before the 2018 UNWTO conference which will also be held in Krakow and will be dedicated to the religious tourism. We have participated in many similar congresses and conferences; this time we hope to welcome here in Krakow and Malopolska Region several hundred persons from the branch: specialists, touroperators, tour agents, priests and others operating in the religious tourism and pilgrimage market" - says Dominika from Ernesto Travel, the initiator of the Congress.
The Congress will be opened on the 9th November, by the both secular and clerical authorities of Krakow. An opening Holy Mass will be celebrated at the John Paul II Centre, followed by speeches, lectures and a workshop with the representatives of the local sanctuaries and tourist attractions. 10th and 11th November will be a chance for the guests from around the world to visit Krakow and Malopolska Region (Krakow Old Town, John Paul II Center, Divine Mercy Sanctuary, Salt Mine in Wieliczka, former German Nazi Concentration Camp Auschwitz-Birkenau, the church and museum of Wadowice - Karol Wojtyla’s birthplace, the Basilic in Kalwaria Zebrzydowska and of course the Black Madonna Sanctuary in Czestochowa).
The Congress aims to be a meeting place between the tour operators and the local providers as well as to promote Krakow and Malopolska Region as an important religious tourism and pilgrimage destination not only in Europe, but also worldwide, finally to strengthen the importance of religious tourism within the tourism market.
The organizers welcome foreign tour agents and touroperatos, bloggers and journalists, bishops and priests as well as other religious tourism and pilgrimage organizers such as diocesan coordinators or the leaders of foundations and congregations.
