Overview

Read 4 reviews and enjoy exclusive savings on Globus 10 Day Footsteps of Apostle Paul. “For we walk by faith, not by sight,” wrote the Apostle Paul to the Corinthians. On this religious tour of Greece and Turkey, you’ll stroll, skip, and sail by faith as you retrace the many missionary journeys of the Apostle Paul after he saw the light in Damascus. Both pilgrimage and picturesque journey, this land and cruise tour to mainland Greece, the Greek Isles, and Turkey leads you to many significant sites of the New Testament as well as some of the most magnificent...read more sights of the Mediterranean. Scripture will take on new meaning as you visit the ancient communities where Paul established churches – and to whom he penned his epistles, including the Thessalonians, Philippians, Corinthians, and Ephesians. As you follow in the faithful footsteps of the Apostle Paul – with fantastic detours to Mykonos, Crete, and Santorini – you, too, will have much to write home about.

A good tour with a great balance of locations 2 , NSW, Australia, May 2019
The tour traces the travels of St Paul from the Macedonian area of Thessaloniki to Athens and the islands as an extra. Very much enjoyed the people I travelled with and the knowledgeable guides' perspectives. Most hotel and ship accomodation was fine although not four star and an oceanview option would have been good.
In the footsteps of the Apostle Paul   2 , VIC, Australia, Sep 2018
This was a very well organised trip from the booking right through to the journey home. Everything ran like clockwork. The guides were well informed and were able to impart their knowledge with interest. The hotels were excellent and the employees could not do enough for you. The trip was well paced and I saw a lot in a short time, yet I never felt ...read more rushed. Being in a group meant that we missed the long queues and the crowds.
Excellent Tour - Footsteps of Apostle Paul 5 , SA, Australia, Oct 2017
This tour in early October was well organised and highly enjoyable. The group was an excellent size - 28. It didn't matter that I knew no-one on it. All got on very well. Accommodation I found was comfortable, the bus transport excellent and comfortable, short enjoyable cruise.
Loved the blend of land and sea travel 2 , NSW, Australia, Jul 2015
Loved the blend of land and sea based travel. Greek Islands, Patmos and Ephesus excellent. Guides of highest standard and made sure that everybody had a wonderful experience. Participants also of the highest standard and it was a pleasure to meet so many quality people. Greece financial issues did not create any problems.
