Group Visits

Guided tours leave from the Visitor Center that is located below the Basilica (next to the statue of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton). Reservations are required for groups of 15 or more. Please plan to spend two hours visiting in order to appreciate the complete experience!

Friendly and helpful Seton Way Guides are available for tours at 10:30, 11:30, 1:00, 2:00 and 3:00, Tuesday through Sunday, to lead you through all the sacred and historical sites, including the location of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton's final resting place in the Basilica. You will end this interesting and informative one-hour walking tour in the Seton Heritage Museum.

In addition to offering a guided tour, Seton Heritage Ministries can plan for you to attend a regularly scheduled Mass in the Basilica, schedule a private Mass if you have a priest who wishes to celebrate Mass for your group; and even make arrangements for your group to receive a box lunch on the go or dine at a recommended local restaurant (see "Nearby Attractions").

Church, school, tour, and bus groups are welcome!
