3 domestic flights — already included in your price

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.

This charming little town includes the Luther Family Home, as well as the house Luther was visiting at the time of his death.

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.

October 13 – Strasbourg and Basel
John Calvin ministered in Strasbourg from 1538 to 1541 at several churches, including Sainte-Madeleine and the Temple Neuf. The Cathédrale Notre-Dame of Strasbourg is the highest cathedral tower in France, and contains an Astronomical Clock.  Enjoy a walking tour of the city.  We'll journey to Basel, located on the Rhine River and home to John Calvin.  We'll visit the Munster, once a Catholic cathedral and now a Reformed church.  Buried here is Erasmus, a Catholic priest and contemporary of the Reformers.  His work on Free Will and the toleration of opposing views of Christianity caused him to be criticized from both sides.  He died in 1536 and was buried here.  Oecolampadius led the city's conversion to Protestantism, and John Calvin's work Institutes of the Christian Religion was first published here in 1536.  Visit the Marketplatz and see the Rathaus (originally a Renaissance palace).  Dinner and overnight in Basel
 
October 14 – Constance and Zurich
This morning, travel to the lakeside city of Konstanz (Constance).  In 1414 - 1418, the Council of Constance challenged early reformers of the church.  Jan Hus, a Czech priest and early reformer, was called before the council and later burned at the stake on July 6, 1415.  Visit the house he stayed at here.  Wander the medieval streets and shops of this city untouched by World War II.  Zurich was home to Huldrich Zwingli, a contemporary of Luther and Calvin, leading the call for Reformation.  Zwingli served as pastor of the Grossmunster (Great Church) in the 1520's.  Zwingli died in Zurich in 1531, and the Zurich Bible was published that same year.  Two other churches here deserve attention.  The Fraumunster (Our Lady's Church) has portions of architecture dating to the 13th century, and boasts stained glass windows by Marc Chagall.  Finally St. Peter's Church has the largest church clock face in the world.  Check into your hotel for dinner and overnight.  Dinner and overnight in Zurich
 
October 15 – Interlachen and Alpine Drive
This morning you’ll enjoy travel through the Alps to the town of Interlaken, surrounded by major peaks beside two lakes.  Continue on to Chillon Castle.  Walk the grounds of this fortification that has guarded the southern pass of Lake Geneva for over 800 years.  Dinner and overnight in area between Chillon and Geneva
 
October 16 – Geneva
You’ll spend your day in Geneva, the capital of the canton with the same name and the seat of many international organizations. Upon arrival, we will visit many sites, including the World Council of Churches, the UN Palace, St. Pierre's Cathedral, the Reformation Monument, Rousseau Island, the Flower Clock, and many other highlights of this bustling international and financial city. We will have plenty of free time exploring this beautiful city before we turn in at our hotel for dinner and overnight. Dinner and overnight near the Geneva airport area
