Example Dates: October 12–21, 2026 • A nine-day pilgrimage we'll fully customize around your congregation's calendar, group size, and vision.
This nine-day journey traces the Apostle Paul's second and third missionary journeys through Greece — from his address at the Areopagus in Athens to the church he planted in Philippi and the synagogue where he taught in Thessaloniki. Each day combines guided teaching at historic sites with dedicated time for group devotionals and reflection.
The itinerary and pricing shown on this page are an example of what a Greece pilgrimage can look like. No two congregations travel the same way — we sit down with your pastoral team to build the dates, sites, pacing, and budget around your church specifically.
With ongoing Middle East tensions and regional instability, Greece provides a powerful Biblical alternative that allows congregations to continue engaging in meaningful faith-based travel while remaining safely removed from areas of unrest.
Here's a sample nine-day itinerary based on a recent church group's Greece pilgrimage. We'll adjust the days, sites, and pacing to fit your congregation's own journey.
Overnight flight from Phoenix Sky Harbor to Athens, Greece.
Arrive in Athens, transfer to our hotel, and gather for a welcome dinner and orientation with your group leader.
Stand where Paul addressed the Areopagus (Acts 17), then explore the Acropolis and the Ancient Agora with a licensed Christian guide.
Visit the ruins of Corinth, the Bema Seat, and Cenchreae, the port from which Paul sailed to Ephesus (Acts 18).
Travel to Kavala, the ancient Neapolis, marking the site where Paul first set foot on European soil (Acts 16).
Explore Philippi and the riverside believed to be where Lydia was baptized, with a group communion service.
Walk through Thessaloniki, where Paul taught in the synagogue and later wrote his letters to the Thessalonians.
Visit the cliff-top monasteries of Meteora, followed by a free morning for personal reflection and journaling.
Tour the Sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi before returning to Athens for a closing group dinner.
