Türkiye has more places named in the New Testament than almost any country outside the Holy Land: the seven churches of the Book of Revelation, Ephesus, where Paul lived for about three years and John is traditionally buried, and the regions Paul crossed on his journeys. Our private faith tours visit them with licensed guides who know both the archaeology and the scripture.
Prices per person in US dollars (USD). Every tour is private and can be adjusted.

The main sites are in western Türkiye and can be combined in five days or more:
Every tour is private, so you set the pace for reading, prayer or a short devotion at each site. Your guide is a licensed national guide with experience of faith tours; tell us your denomination or study focus and we will brief the guide. Sunday services can be built into the program where a local congregation welcomes visitors.
We plan private trips for churches, Bible study groups and pilgrimage groups, with a price prepared for your group size and dates. See Church and group travel.

The seven churches are all in western Türkiye, around İzmir. If you fly into İzmir, 5-Day Seven Churches of Revelation Tour from İzmir is the simplest option at $1,175 per person for two travelers. If you are already in Istanbul, 5-Day Seven Churches of Revelation Tour from Istanbul adds the flights for $1,385. 10-Day Seven Churches Tour with Istanbul & Cappadocia adds Istanbul and Cappadocia for $2,435.
Five days is the practical minimum to visit all seven sites at a comfortable pace from İzmir, with Ephesus given a full morning. Our 5-day tours start in İzmir or Istanbul. If you also want Istanbul and Cappadocia, plan about ten days.
None of the original first-century congregations survive as buildings. You visit the ancient cities where they met: excavated streets, theaters, temples and, in several places, the ruins of later Byzantine churches such as the Red Basilica in Pergamum and the church pillars in Philadelphia.
Small, quiet readings and prayers are generally fine at open-air sites as long as they do not block other visitors. Larger services need permission. Tell us what you plan and your guide will suggest suitable places and times.
For two travelers, $1,175 per person for 5 days from İzmir, $1,385 for 5 days from Istanbul including flights, and $2,435 for 10 days with Istanbul and Cappadocia. For a group of six or more the prices fall to $860, $1,050 and $1,860 per person. Hotels and entrance fees are included.
Ephesus, the city of Acts 19, with the Great Theater, the Basilica of St. John and the House of the Virgin Mary nearby, and Cappadocia, with hundreds of rock-cut churches. Our 10-day tour combines the Seven Churches with Istanbul and Cappadocia.
