In our
biblical tours we retrace St. Paul's steps in Greece,
using the Bible and the "Acts of Apostles"
as our guides. The tours will satisfy the simple
traveler as well as the informed reader of the Bible.
Following his footsteps is not an easy task. St Paul
was a dynamic figure, a man of the road considering
the distances he travelled, the difficulties and
adventures he faced. In Greece alone, following his
steps, we start from Kavala, visit Philippi,
Amphipolis, Apollonia, Thessalonica, Berea, Athens,
Corinth and Cenchreae driving nearly 1000 km.,
sitting in a private car / minibus / luxury coach and
spending our overnights in comfortable hotels, with
our meals organised and listening about St. Paul's
adventures when he decided to preach the Gospel in
Europe.
We see the baptismal site of Lydia, the first
European to become a Christian, the crypt that has
served as a prison for Paul and Silas, the bema in
Berea, the Mars Hill, the ancient Corinth site where
Paul lived for 18 months etc. St Paul travelled from
Berea to Athens by sea but we shall do it overland
and to make the journey more relaxed we plan stops
and sites of archaeological and cultural interest
such as Vergina, where they found the tombs of the
Macedonian king Philip, (father of Alexander the
Great), Meteora and the monasteries on top of the
huge grey rocks, and Delphi if requested.
The
best season to plan this tour is Spring or autumn.
The best time will be to plan the tour in combination
with "unique" Greek traditions (e.g. May 21
for the "anastenaria" etc.). The size of the team
/ group surely affects the price per person but since
we want to give everybody the chance to follow the
footsteps of the greatest missionary of Christianity,
we organise this tour from 2 persons in a rented car
to a maximum of 35 participants which is the optimum
size to be able to follow the tour guide's lectures.
The minimum is 4 days / 3 nights in a tight program
to 9 days / 8 nights which can be combined with a 3 ,
4 or 7 day cruise to the Aegean islands, visiting the
island of Patmos, Rhodes, Ephessus and even Istanbul
and the Dardanelles.
Take this opportunity, trust our 32
years of experience and let us plan together this
journey of a lifetime. The feeling is great when you
realise that you walk along the stone path the
Apostle Paul walked.
You decide how many days you want to spend on this
tour and contact us.
We shall try our best to make it happen.
