Overall it was an amazing experience! To be able to be where history was made was just so beautiful. Tess (our guide) was so knowledgeable and so very hospitable. He made this experience so much better. Also, he made our lunch perfect! It was a memorable meal and the view that we had over the ruins was spectacular.

My wife and I enjoyed a great trip to Corinth, exploring Paul’s footsteps. Our guide, Yannis, was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and we learned even more about our faith.

My 17 yr old son and I took this tour on Easter Sunday which made it extra special. Both my son and I can't say enough good about it. It was wonderful. Yannis was prompt, pleasant, knowlegable and it didn't hurt that he brought a box of baked goods for us! The drive itself was enjoyable, and he made each location come alive with his stories. If we come back with other family or friends we will insist they take this tour. If a 17 year old boy raves about a biblical tour and the tour guide, you know it is something special.
