Daily Itinerary

Day 1 November 2 - Depart the USA

Depart on flight to Istanbul.

Day 2 November 3 - Arrive Istanbul

Upon arrival to the Istanbul Airport, we will meet our guide in the arrivals exit and head to our hotel. Dinner and overnight in Istanbul.

Day 3 November 4 - Istanbul

After enjoying our Turkish breakfast, we will depart from our hotel and begin our tour of Istanbul’s historical highlights. We will stroll through Hippodrome Square, Constantinople’s former sporting and social center that hosted chariot races during the Roman period. Afterward, we are off to witness the incredible majesty and splendor of the Sultan Ahmet Mosque. Popularly known as the Blue Mosque, this 17th-century Ottoman sanctuary is adorned with six minarets and more than 20,000 hand-painted Iznik tiles. Then, we will walk directly across from the mosque to visit the domed masterpiece of the Hagia Sophia before heading to Topkapi Palace. Located on the very cape of the peninsula where Constantinople was founded, Topkapi Palace is the former abode of Ottoman Sultans that still houses their legion of treasures, including an extensive collection of royal jewels. Then, we will end our day with an evening of shopping at the Grand Bazaar, the massive covered market that houses a labyrinth of streets lined with shops selling jewelry, leather products, and many other handcrafted souvenirs—dinner and overnight in Istanbul.

Day 4 November 5 - Istanbul, Kayseri, Cappadocia

After enjoying our Turkish breakfast, we will be transferred to Istanbul Airport and fly to Kayseri. Upon arrival, you will continue to Cappadocia. Today, we will also hike through the valley of Zelve and see its hundreds of carved-from-rock houses and chapels, and we will visit Pasabag Valley, also known as Monk’s Valley, to explore its tower-shaped hermitages. Next, we will descend into Ozkonak Underground City before heading to the potter’s studio in Avanos, a town established by the Hittites on the banks of the Halys River. This town has carried on the Hittites’’ tradition of pottery that uses the river’s famous red clay to make ceramics—dinner and overnight in Cappadocia.

Day 5 November 6 - Cappadocia, Konya

Optional balloon ride early in the morning. After enjoying our Turkish breakfast, we will explore the Monastic Center of Goreme. This open-air museum is dotted with quaint carved-from-rock churches and chapels embellished with colorful Byzantine frescoes. Then, we will discover Avcilar Valley. Afterward, we will continue to Konya, the ancient Iconium, where Paul the Apostle and Barnabas spent much of their missionary efforts preaching the Gospel despite persecution. Dinner and overnight in Konya.

Day 6 November 7 - Konya, Pamukkale

After breakfast, we drive to Pamukkale. Upon arrival, we will visit the archeological remains of Hierapolis, a significant site of early Christianity, thanks to Paul’s missionary efforts here. Because the city sits atop the travertine cascades of Pamukkale (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), Hierapolis became a healing center wherein the site’s thermal pools were used to treat various ailments. Finally, continuing on to Laodicea. This city was one of the Seven Churches that  Apostle John chastised the inhabitants for being lukewarm. Here, we will see the site’s well-preserved stadium, gymnasium, and theatres, giving us insight into this city’s former prominence—dinner and overnight in Pamukkale.

Day 7 November 8 - Pamukkale, Kusadasi

After breakfast, we are off to explore Ephesus. Located in the modern town of Selcuk, ancient Ephesus is one of Turkey’s most well-preserved archaeological sites. Originally an ancient Greek Ionic city built in the 10th century BC, Ephesus grew to become the largest metropolis and capital of the Roman province of Asia Minor. This political influence and the city’s large Jewish community attracted the attention of the apostles, including Paul. We will stop at the ruins of St. John’s Basilica. Constructed by Justinian I in the 6th century, this basilica stands over the believed burial site of John the Apostle—dinner and overnight in Kusadasi.

Day 8 November 9 - Kusadası, Izmir Airport

Today, we say good bye to Turkey and head to Kusadasi pier and embark the cruise. This afternoon, we will dock at Patmos and discover the “Jerusalem of the Aegean”. We will visit the Monastery of St. John and to the Cave of the Apocalypse, where John the Evangelist wrote the Book of the Revelation during his exile. Return to the ship to sail to Santorini.

Day 9 November 10 - Santorini

This morning, we will wake up at the amazing volcanic island of Santorini, the pearl of the Aegean, where we will spend the entire day. First, we head to Megalochori, one of the island’s most authentic and unspoiled villages. Then, we continue through a number of traditional communities like Firostefani and Imerovigli until we arrive at Oia village perched on the rim of the Caldera. We will see the little islands of Thirasia, Palea, and Nea Kameni and have an incredible, unsurpassable panoramic view. There is plenty of time in Oia to explore, stroll the marble-paved alleys, visit the adorable shops, and capture the moments on camera. We will have free time in Fira before returning to the ship.

Day 10 November 11 - Disembarkation, Corinth, Athens

Today, we will disembark the cruise, meet our guide to driving to Corinth, and visit the site where Apostle Paul worked for 18 months with tent makers Aquila and Priscilla. We will also see the handmade Corinth Canal connecting the Aegean with the Ionian Seas. Return to Athens to visit the Acropolis, Parthenon, Areopagus, and Mars Hill, where the Apostle Paul delivered his well-known sermon. We will have a panoramic tour of the Parliament House, the Academy, Omonia Square, and Panathenaic Stadium. We will have free time at our hotel in the Plaka area, the ancient city of Athens—for dinner and overnight.

Day 11 November 12 - Departure
