The mission of Inner Travel Books is to make the sacred adventure of pilgrimage more available and accessible to people of all faiths.

Here is all the information you need to visit profound pilgrimage sites, meditate on the lives of saints, and experience their blessings.

Discover the inspiring lives of the saints

  • Explore hidden rooms with saints’ relics
  • Learn to meditate with the saints
  • Find quiet areas for meditation and prayer
  • Locate shrines easily with useful maps and directions

“Pilgrims are not tourists. They have come, quietly and humbly, to seek the holy and enter more deeply into God’s blessedness. The Heater’s have found this stillness for themselves and here set out to share its essentials with men and women who earnestly seek God.”
