What To Expect

Ancient Agora of Athens

Begin your tour at the Agora, the vibrant heart of ancient Athens. This was the city’s center for politics, commerce, social life, and religion. When the Apostle Paul arrived in Athens, he came here to engage with philosophers and thinkers, sharing the message of Christianity amidst the lively debates and cultural exchanges that defined this historic gathering place.

1 hour • Admission Not Included

Just northwest of the Acropolis stands the Areopagus, a marble hill that served as a judicial and political meeting place in ancient Athens. During Apostle Paul’s visit, it was also a renowned spot for intellectual debate and discussion. The council here, made up of 100 members including philosophers, scholars, and former officials, listened as Paul presented his message, marking a pivotal moment in the spread of Christianity.

We enjoyed our excursion with our tour guide Yannis. It was a nice to experience the footsteps of Paul in Athens and Corinth. Lot of walking on uneven payment. Wear comfortable shoes. It was a full day but enjoyed the tour.

Greece…a land of Gods and great personalities….whose influence continues rosary. Surely, the Apostle Paul was one of those whose letter to the folks at Corinth resonates in practical ways today. Our tour guide, Kostas (Costas), was knowledgeable and passionate about Paul and his life while in Athens as well as Corinth. Knowing history is one thing, knowing the person of history is another. Putting Paul in context is what I sought and George did that for me! His care for our safety and comfort, and patience without mobility limitations was a plus. Would recommend George…this tour.
Great day with the Footsteps of Paul tour

This was a great experience. Our driver was waiting for us as soon as we exited the cruise ship terminal. We met with the guide that Coloues in Greece arranged for us at the first stop -the ancient Agora in Athens. Katerina (I hope I spelled it right!) was so informative. At every stop she shared important information whether it was mythology, history or biblical. We visited the Aeropagus, a beautiful Orthodox Chirch and passed by the Academy, University and Library or stopped for quick pictures in Athens at the Olympic Stadium before heading to Cenchrae and then on to the site of ancient Corinth. The guide even helped us get a takeaway coffee and snack in Athens and arranged a Greek lunch at the end of the day. It was a full day but we saw everything about Paul and the area between Athena and Greece that I hoped.
Amazing day
