Recent Reviews What our clients are saying about their Religious journeys

A good tour with a great balance of locations Jann , 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.

Memorable trip to Italy Rita, NSW, Australia, Sep 2018

Hearty breakfast every morning, ...read more

The trip was well paced and I saw a lot in a short time, yet I never felt ...read more
