Guaranteed Departure Tour: every Friday from April to October
A pilgrimage tour on the footsteps of Saint Paul in Greece offers a profound spiritual journey, beginning in Thessaloniki and culminating in Athens. Thessaloniki, where Saint Paul preached during his second missionary journey, serves as the starting point. Here, pilgrims can explore the Rotunda, one of the oldest Christian monuments, and the Church of Saint Demetrios, dedicated to the city’s patron saint.
Traveling south, the tour continues to Veria, another significant stop where Paul delivered sermons in the city’s ancient synagogue. The journey then leads to the archaeological site of Philippi, where Paul baptized the first Christian convert in Europe, Lydia, and was imprisoned for his faith.
As the pilgrimage progresses, pilgrims visit the stunning region of Meteora, where centuries-old monasteries perched on towering rock formations offer a glimpse into the monastic life that followed Paul’s teachings.
The journey concludes in Athens, the cradle of Western civilization, where Paul delivered his famous sermon on the Areopagus, addressing the Athenians about the “unknown God.” This pilgrimage is not just a travel through beautiful landscapes but a profound exploration of faith, history, and the enduring legacy of Saint Paul’s mission in Greece.
