Walk in the Footsteps of Paul the Apostle with SPIRIT 105.3
and Mark Holland from sister-station KCIS 630
Paul the Apostle, the prolific writer of the New Testament letters, was one of the first Christian missionaries. Trace his journey through the ancient cities and pastoral country sides of Greece and Turkey. Travel to Corinth where Paul lived and preached for two years and also wrote two epistles. Explore ancient Corinth on a guided tour featuring the Agora, where Paul’s trial by Gallio took place, and the Bema, where Paul was brought before the tribunal, as recorded in the Acts of the Apostles. Back in Athens, see the hill of Areopagus (Mars Hill) – where Paul delivered his famous “Men of Athens” speech – and visit the incomparable Acropolis.
Embark on a 3-night cruise to the Greek Islands and Turkey. The island of Mykonos is your first stop. Visit the Turkish port of Kusadasi for an excursion to the ruins of Ephesus (UNESCO), where Paul the Apostle lived 3 years during his ministry. You’ll also visit the Agora, the great theatre, and the stadium where chariot races and gladiatorial combats took place. Legend claims that Paul fought here against wild beasts. Visit the House of Mary, where the Virgin Mother spent her last days. Continue your cruise to Patmos. Visit the Monastery of John and the Cave of the Apocalypse where John the Evangelist wrote the Book of Revelation during his exile and later, arrive on the island of Santorini, known as the “Black Pearl of the Aegean.”
Marvel at the hanging monasteries of Meteora (UNESCO). These dark, sandstone pinnacles rise abruptly from the plain of Thessaly, with 6 historic monasteries perched upon their peaks.

Traveler Experience
CRISTA Media is thrilled to bring together its listeners to embark upon a group travel experience. It would like to take an extra step to inform the group members of travel expectations so that we can foster a positive experience for those traveling. By embarking on this trip with SPIRIT 105.3, all travelers represent that:
The overall activity level of this tour is a level 3. This means you’re an on-the-go traveler. You don’t want to miss a thing, so walking and standing for longer periods of time (2-3 hours) isn’t a big deal. A moderately paced two-and-a-half-hour walking tour, covering several miles, hills, and uneven surfaces that may be slippery, is no problem for you. Walking four miles over the course of a day is very doable, as is climbing into and out of various modes of transportation, such as tender boats, to access shore. This level is not a fit for travelers who require mobility assistance devices.
Accessing one of the two monasteries in Meteora requires climbing approximately 200 steps. In order to access the Acropolis archeological site, you will be required to climb about 50-60 steep uneven steps and walk over rugged terrain with loose stones and without railings. Travelers must be able to climb on and off tender boats to access shore at select ports during the cruise.
If you require any special assistance while on tour, please make us aware at time of reservation so the necessary request form can be sent to your attention.
