Greece & Turkey
May 16-30, 2027
Join us on this deeply enriching two-week tour through Greece and western Turkey where the pages of Scripture will come to life before your eyes. Most of the books of the New Testament (19 of 27) have some substantive connection with the places that you will visit. You will see the towns and cities where the apostles Paul, John, Peter, and Phillip lived and ministered along with other biblical figures such as Timothy, Apollos, Priscilla and Aquila, Philemon, Epaphras, and more. You will walk through many of the cities where the seven churches of Revelation were located and sit in the massive theater at Ephesus where the silversmiths provoked a riot against the Apostle Paul in honor of Artemis. And you will see the extensive archaeological work carried out at Laodicea and witness the very beginnings of the excavation at Colossae. Our tour begins with a visit to Athens where you will stay at the foot of the acropolis and see the center of Greek civilization. We will travel through the countryside and cities on a private, airconditioned bus to our biblical sites. Throughout the journey, you will enjoy wonderful Greek and Turkish hospitality at beautiful fourand five-star hotels and savor incredible cuisine.
