This is not sightseeing. This is the Bible coming alive
Most people read about Ephesus, Smyrna, and Laodicea their whole lives — from a pew, from a page. This journey puts you inside the story.
You’ll stand in the theater where Paul preached in Acts 19. You’ll walk the streets of Laodicea where Jesus said, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock.” You’ll pray where the early church prayed — in the ruins of Pergamon, in the sacred pools of Hierapolis, in the underground cities where Christians hid to survive.
No amount of reading prepares you for what it feels like to be there.
When you return home, you will:
- Understand the New Testament with a depth no sermon can give you
- Have prayed and worshipped in the places where it all began
- Never read Revelation the same way again
- Carry a visual memory of every biblical site — for the rest of your life
3 domestic flights — already included in your price
- Istanbul → Izmir
- Izmir → Cappadocia
- Cappadocia → Istanbul
Most travelers don’t realize how far apart these cities are — or how much domestic flights cost when booked independently. These tickets run $300–500 per person and require separate booking, check-in, and logistics.
In this tour, domestic flights are included in your price. We book them on your behalf. You don’t search, you don’t book, you don’t pay extra. You just show up.
That’s $600–1000 in flights per couple — already taken care of.

Follow in the footsteps of Paul and Silas to Amphipolis and explore the ruins of the many Christian basilicas there. In Philippi, see a baptismal site commemorating where God opened the heart of Lydia (a seller of purple from Thyatira) to hear the words of Paul (Acts 16:13 -15). Lydia and her household were the first Christian converts baptized on European soil. View the Roman-era crypt thought to have served as a prison for the apostle Paul, and explore Philippi’s famous agora, the Basilica of Paul, and the theater. Today’s last stop is Neapolis (Kavala), one of Greece's most picturesque mainland ports, where Paul landed with his disciples, Timothy and Silas. See the Roman aqueduct and acropolis before returning to Thessaloniki for dinner and overnight.

Meals:
THESSALONIKI and VERIA (BEREA)
-
Bus, airplane
Transportation:
-
Discover Thessaloniki, where Paul was accused of turning the world upside down with his preaching of Christ (Acts 17: 3 -6). Stroll through the archaeological museum and the beautiful basilica of St. Demetrios, dedicated to a distinguished Roman proconsul martyred for his Christian faith. Look upon the agora. Along the Via Egnatia stands the Galerius Arch, and you can look out over the second-largest city in Greece from the Old City Ramparts, some dating back to Roman times. Follow the path of Paul when he fled Thessaloniki for the safety of Veria (Berea), where Jews and some honorable Greeks accepted the new faith (Acts 17: 10-12). Continue to Kalambaka for dinner and overnight.
Events:
-
Breakfast. Lunch.
Meals:
METEORA and DELPHI
-
Bus
Transportation:
-
As you visit the rock forest of Meteora (“in the heavens above”) in western Thessaly, imagine the apostle Paul walking that treacherous terrain on his missionary journey. Gaze up at the breathtaking Byzantine monasteries, spectacularly perched on soaring, sheer-sided grey sandstone pillars. In the 13th century, monks sought refuge in cliffside caves before fleeing higher to build the original wooden shelters that later became these monasteries. After a monastery tour, travel to scenic Delphi, the religious center of the ancient Greek world, which is marked by the conical stone called the Omphalos (“navel”). Walk the Sacra Via to the Athenian treasury, theater, and the Temple of Apollo, where the oracle performed her prophetic rituals. Considering the incredible pagan influence in Delphi alone, you will gain a new appreciation for the tremendous spiritual opposition the apostle Paul faced in preaching the Gospel of Christ here. In the museum are many ancient treasures, including the 5th-century bronze charioteer so detailed you can see his eyelashes. Continue to Athens for overnight.
Events:
-
Breakfast. Lunch
Meals:
CORINTH and CENCHREAE
-
Bus
Transportation:
-
Tour the city of Corinth, where the apostle Paul met fellow tentmakers Aquila and Priscilla and received a vision from the Lord saying, "I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city" (Acts 18: 10). As Paul spoke, Crispus (chief ruler of the synagogue) and many others believed and were baptized (Acts 18:8), establishing the church at Corinth to whom Paul later wrote his two epistles. Discover the archaeological museum, marketplace, and temples. As you walk among the ruins, stand on the Bema, where the apostle Paul stood before Gallio to face charges brought against him by the Jews. Stop briefly at the port town of Cenchreae, from which Paul later departed for Syria (Acts 18: 12 -18). Return to Athens for dinner and overnight.

(Note – Cruise extension passengers will depart from the group this morning and head to the cruise port for their cruise ship) Enjoy the rich architectural splendor of the ancient city of Athens as your guide introduces you to the world-renowned Acropolis, the Propylaea, the Parthenon, and the Erechtheum. Stand on Mars Hill as the apostle Paul did when he proclaimed, "I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you" (Acts 17:23). As you look upon the agora (ancient market place and center of Athenian public life), recall that this was where the Apostle Paul preached "Jesus and the resurrection" (Acts 17:18) to the skeptical Athenians. Also see the House of Parliament, the Presidential Palace, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. This afternoon, you can explore Athens on your own or enjoy an optional visit to the New Acropolis Museum (for an additional cost). Dinner and overnight are spent in Athens.

Greek Isle Cruise Extension Starting from $1749
Pricing ranges from $1,749-$2,199 per person, depending on the season.
Day 7 – EMBARK IN PIRAEUS & MYKONOS
Board the ship and sail the blue waters of the Aegean Sea. In the evening, you will arrive at the world-famous Greek island of Mykonos, where gleaming, white-washed buildings seem to climb atop each other to reach the azure sky.
Excursions today are on your own. They can be purchased on the ship.
Day 8 – EPHESUS & PATMOS
This morning, you arrive in Kusadasi, Turkiye, and journey to Ephesus, where the apostle Paul spent three years of his ministry. He planted a church here and later wrote to them in his Epistle to the Ephesians. Many of the ruins of Ephesus (known as “the marble city”) have been restored to show the city as it was in the apostle Paul’s time. Visit the agora and imagine where Demetrius, the silversmith, sold his silver shrines of the Greek goddess Artemis. Stroll through the great theater where Paul witnessed faithfully for Christ. View one of the “Seven Wonders of the Ancient World”, the ruins of the Temple of Diana (Artemis), before setting sail for the Island of Patmos to visit the Monastery of St. John, high on the mountain overlooking the entire island. Walk down to the Grotto of the Apocalypse and the caves where it is believed that the exiled Apostle John lived and was inspired by God to write the Book of Revelation and other letters to the early church.
Day 9 – CRETE & SANTORINI
Dock this morning in Crete’s port of Heraklion, just three miles away from the fantastic ruins of the Palace of Knossos. Discovered in 1899 and partially reconstructed, the elaborate Palace is believed to be the mythical Labyrinth of King Minos and the seat of ancient Minoan culture. Disembark at Santorini, one of the most beautiful of the Greek islands, where picturesque, whitewashed villages topped with brilliant blue domes stand in stark contrast to the sheer drop cliffs overlooking the Aegean Sea. The island perches on the edges of a volcano whose eruption 3,500 years ago is thought to have led to the collapse of the Minoan civilization.
Excursions today are on your own. They can be purchased on the ship.
Day 10 – ATHENS
Enjoy the rich architectural splendor of the ancient city of Athens as your guide introduces you to the world-renowned Acropolis, the Propylaea, the Parthenon, and the Erechtheum. Stand on Mars Hill as the apostle Paul did when he proclaimed, “I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you” (Acts 17:23). As you stroll the Agora (ancient marketplace and center of Athenian public life), recall that this was where the Apostle Paul preached “Jesus and the resurrection” (Acts 17:18) to the skeptical Athenians. Also see the House of Parliament, the Presidential Palace, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. This afternoon, you can explore Athens on your own or enjoy an optional visit to the New Acropolis Museum (for an additional cost). Dinner and overnight are spent in Athens.
Day 11 – RETURN TO USA
Return home with a new appreciation of the Apostle Paul’s life and ministry.

Questions people ask before booking
Yes — and thousands of believers confirm this every year. Turkey's major tourist regions (Istanbul, Cappadocia, Ephesus, the Aegean Coast) are listed by the U.S. State Department under "Exercise Normal Precautions." You travel with an experienced guide, as part of a group, on well-established routes — in the very places where Christian history is written in stone.
This is exactly the right question. We carefully select guides for their deep knowledge of Scripture and Christian history. Your guide doesn't recite dates — they open the Word in the very places where it happened. When you stand in the theatre at Ephesus and read Acts 19, or pray at the ruins of Laodicea — the Bible comes alive in a way it never does from a pew.
There are no fixed departures — that's intentional. This tour is available year-round on custom dates. You tell us when works for your group, and we build the itinerary around your schedule. Contact us with your preferred dates and group size, and we'll respond with a full quote within 48 hours.

Every optional is listed in advance with its exact price — no surprises.
