Route Map
Why travel with FAVOR TRAVEL— not directly with a local company
Someone is on your side from the first call to the flight home
A local Turkish operator sells you an itinerary. FAVOR Travel walks with you from the first conversation to the moment you land back home. When a flight changes, a hotel shifts, or your group needs flexibility — we handle it. You don’t figure it out in a foreign country, alone.
Your guide knows the Bible — not just the ruins
We carefully select guides who bring Scripture to life on-site. When you stand in the Great Theatre at Ephesus and read Acts 19 — your guide opens the Word in the place where it happened. That’s a different experience entirely from a history lecture.
All domestic flights — booked, managed, and included
Flights are inside your tour price. You don’t search for them, you don’t book them separately, you don’t worry about check-in logistics. We handle it. That’s $600–1000 per couple already covered.
10+ years of faith-based travel
FAVOR Travel specializes in biblical and faith-based group tours. We understand how ministry works on the road, how church groups travel, and what matters most to believers making this pilgrimage.
Traveling as a church? We build the spiritual experience around you
The Seven Churches of Revelation is one of the most powerful itineraries a congregation can take together. Walking through Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamon, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea — every church letter in Revelation becomes personal, not historical.
For groups of 15 or more, we offer:
- Fully customized spiritual itinerary — worship, Scripture reading, and prayer at each site
- Dedicated devotional time on-site — designed around your pastor’s vision
- Best group pricing — the more people, the lower the per-person cost
- Flexible dates — we work around your church calendar
- For 20+ people: option to extend to 10–14 days and add more destinations
Your pastor leads the spiritual journey. We make sure everything else runs perfectly.
✦ GROUP OF 20+? We can extend your journey to 10–14 days, add exclusive destinations, and offer our best group pricing.

Day 9 - Cork, Cobh, Blarney
Depart England on your flight to Cork, Ireland. Our representatives will meet you at the airport and transfer you to your Irish bus as we head for Cobh. Here, you will visit the Heritage Center. From this port, between 1845 and 1860, that 2.5 million people sailed to America. If you had an ancestor who came from Ireland to America, chances are they departed from this very place. Find your family name on the archived passenger lists. You can enjoy the multimedia exhibition and the railway station that has been completely refurbished in the style of the era. Visit Blarney Castle and Blarney Woollen Mills Shop. At the Castle of Blarney you will see the fabled Blarney Stone. Legend says that those who kiss the stone acquire a gift of eloquence. Check into your Killareny area hotel for a two-night stay. (B, D)
Day 10 - Ring of Kerry, Waterville, Muckross House
Delight in some of the most spectacular scenery as you travel the Ring of Kerry. Pause at the seaside village of Waterville. Here Charlie Chaplin owned a summer home, and Payne Stewart was Club Captain of the local Golf Course. Visit the 19th century Muckross House. You will enjoy this magnificent Victorian mansion that is considered one of Ireland’s leading stately homes. You will experience the elegance of the day when you see the elegantly furnished rooms. Downstairs, however, reveals the working conditions of the servants employed in the house. (B, D)
Day 11 - Adare, Rock of Cashel, Dublin
Enjoy the beauty of the thatch roofed streets of Adare. The church here has a Norman Castle keep at it’s center. See the Rock of Cashel, the traditional seat of Irish kings. Here St. Patrick is thought to have converted the King of Munster. The present ruins are from structures built in the 12 and 13th Centuries, during the Norman era. Continue on to Dublin for dinner and your two-night stay. (B, D)
Day 12 - Dublin
We begin our journey this morning with a stop at St. Patrick’s Cathedral. The church was transitioned from a Catholic church to the Church of Ireland over the centuries. Jonathan Swift, author of Gulliver’s Travels and a critic of British rule was a pastor here. John Wesley spoke and administered communion here on one of his numerous visits to Ireland. Take a walking tour of Trinity College. Founded by Queen Elizabeth I in 1592, it is the oldest college in Ireland. We’ll visit the Old Library here and see the Book of Kells, an ornately illustrated Bible produced by Celtic Monks around 800 AD. Enjoy lunch at the Church, a pub that was originally a church Wesley preached at on his first visit to Ireland. Enjoy an afternoon to explore and shop on your own as you walk along the Liffey River or visit the various museums. (B, D)
Day 13 - Return to the USA
Say farewell to Ireland this morning as you return home with memories of the people and places of England and Ireland!
Guests taking an extension may be on a different flight than their group and/or traveling companion.
