We had a wonderful time on our In Paul’s footsteps tour. We enjoyed seeing the canal, where Paul baptized people in Athens, and where he shared the good news to the Athenians. Our driver was very nice and easy to talk to and did a good job putting up with our constant chatter lol.
Excellent experience! At first we were skeptical about not having a licensed tour guide, but our driver was an excellent tour guide nonetheless! He had such a great knowledge about history and culture (both biblical and non-biblical), and he had a great personality as well.
…
Two things to note though:
#1: The tour was shorter than expected. We still felt like we saw almost everything (see point #2), so we weren’t disappointed here.
#2: The tour did not go into the Acrocorinth as shown in the itinerary. Instead, we drove to the church and just saw the Acrocorinth from a distance. We weren’t too disappointed though because our driver said there is really nothing at all besides the walls of the fortress on top, and because the Acrocorinth really has nothing to do with Saint Paul.

Thank you so much for the 5 stars review
Absolutely wonderful tour and tour guide. Dimitrios has extremely polite and a plethora of historical knowledge. He speaks fluent English and very accommodating to all and every request we made of him. Highly recommend his services and tours! Book with confidence.

It was ok, honestly it felt like our driver was offended because we chose to eat first rather than climb the castle first like he told us to, which two of us couldn't do anyway. It felt like there was a lack of flexibility. The day we caught our tour guide it felt like his job to us not his passion. We were all disappointed, it was our first tour of the trip so we didn't know what to expect. The bus was roomy for the 8 of us, but it could have done with a clean down in the back, the air con was good. There was water but never offered us, he told us where we could buy it instead.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Nick on the Footsteps of Paul tour! Nick was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and made the history and significance of each location come alive. You could really tell how passionate he is about the area and the story behind the sites we visited.
He also recommended a lunch spot that was absolutely delicious, a perfect addition to an already wonderful day!
Nick was friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. We learned so much and thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. I would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for an informative, enjoyable, and memorable experience. Five stars all the way!

We didn’t have much wasted time since it was a private tour we just went from one location to another. The driver Constantine was excellent and explained things along the route.

We were picked up from our hotel minutes before the scheduled time. Constantine introduced himself and thanked us for taking this tour with him. He explained what we were going to do. On our journey to Corinth he described what we were driving by and about the geological areas and that was very interesting. We would have given a higher rating had we been able to have more of his attention. He was on the phone often during our trip. He took us to the planned stops and did a wonderful job of telling us what we were seeing and identifying different fruit trees and crops. The trip up to the top or Corinth was amazing. Beautiful views and a wonderful restaurant at the top where we had lunch. Truly wonderful place for lunch.
Constantine was mindful of our steps and helped us get around. Very positive and upbeat!

Thank you so much sorry the driver had a family problem.
Thank you.
Kostos was a wonderful historian. Trip was very interesting. The climb to the top of the AcroCorinth was not for the faint of heart.

This was an amazing tour!! Our driver, Nick, picked us up from our hotel in Athens and was our private guide for the day. The van ride was comfortable and spacious. Ancient Corinth is an amazing place to visit, but as a Christian, it meant so much more. Nick gave us excellent historical explanations. We were able to see the ancient port of Kenchreai where Paul set sail from Corinth to Esphesus, and we touched original stone pillars from the first Christian church in the area. We also saw the ancient city of Corinth and the Corinth Archeological Museum, which was very well done. We stood on the Bema stone where Paul himself stood and was judged by the Jewish rulers in Corinth. Words can't describe how meaningful it was!!! We had some free time to shop in the New Corinth village and finished with a delicious lunch at the summit of Acrocorinth. I highly recommend this tour!

It was great! Wonderful information, Dennis was very knowledgeable and shared lots of information about the culture and history of Greece and Paul’s travels. We thoroughly enjoyed our day touring the land.

This was a great tour to see Corinth and the surrounding area. Dennis was our guide - he was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and let us take our time exploring the stops. The hike to the castle was challenging, but the views alone were worth it. We ate a delicious lunch before driving back to Athens.

A FABULOUS experience! He took us to sites we were not expecting and clearly weren't traditional tourist locations! He was so knowledgeable and clearly loved his city. If we go back, I'll definitely arrange another private tour with him and this company.

This was a wonderful trip. Kostas was very friendly and informative. Make sure and bring your hiking legs if you want to hike the castle. We were not mentally prepared for the 78 floors we hiked that day. 🤣 It was very rewarding however. The views were incredible.
Seeing all the places were Paul went was amazing.

Greetings from Kostas
Nick, our tour guide was very helpful and knowledgeable. We had a great time. My friends and I had a reflective moment about the life of Paul.
Fantastic trip following in the footsteps of Paul with a wonderful guide named Kostas. Bravo to Kostas for his easy to understand English and his knowledge of the area and Paul’s journey. Kostas was early for our hotel pickup and kept the three of us moving for our tour. He was fabulous! We rode in a Mercedes van which was clean, cool and comfy. We all agreed the tour was even better than advertised. The sites were well explained and we had enough time at each site. While lunch cost was not part of the tour, Kostas dropped us at a restaurant near ancient Corinth with a bird’s eye view of the entire valley. The food was much too plentiful and delicious. Overall, a perfect trip to the countryside in the footsteps of Paul. Highly recommend Kostas and this tour.
We are enormously grateful for our guide/.driver Constantine. He went above and beyond meeting expectations. Absolutely amazing, very informative, considerate, caring, and an all around great person! He made this tour an incredible experience we will never forget.
It was a comprehensive excursion tracing Paul’s journey in Corinth. George was a delight to have as our guide. He was very knowledgeable and he shared his knowledge with us. The pacing of our tour was great! We think George had a magic wand because there was a boat crossing the Corinth canal, the bridge sunk to accommodate 4 boats/ catamaran and the Christian Orthodox Church was open!! We are very pleased with our tour. Highly recommending this! Get George!!!

Greetings from George
Our driver/guide was Nick. He picked us up in front of our hotel and we enjoyed a peaceful, scenic drive out to the Canal and where Apostle Paul performed baptisms. Then he took us on a delightful tour through the city of Corinth, ancient Corinth, museum and the castle on Akrocorinth. Nick is so kind and very knowledgeable. The views were stunning and left us speechless. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TOUR!!!
Friendly guide and driver. His knowledge was good in a general way and he did share this information. However, given that this tour was on the footsteps of the Apostle Paul, there was limited coverage on the social and historical explanation of Ancient Corinth and details of the Apostle Paul. The tour was overpriced given the limited learning experience.

Seeing the Corinth canal and the old port where St Paul arrived and met Aquila & Pricilla was mind blowing! Also seeing Old town Corinth was amazing! The constant flow of information along the whole ride was wonderful! We were very blessed to have a genuine passionate Christian with a private car leading the tour! We loved it all!
