Great tour of parts of Athen, but mainly Corinth and of its history. Michael does a good job. He’s well informed of both secular and religious background. I recommend this tour. Keep in mind that entrance to museums and historical sites are not included, but time is allowed for these. My wife and I spent an hour walking through the ancient ruins of the Apostle Paul after purchasing the ticket.

Worth every single penny! This tour was phenomenal from the moment we were picked up till the end. Elias (our tour guide - this is an understatement) was knowledgeable, charming and overall the greatest conversationalist I’ve met in Greece so far. He was incredibly passionate, ensured we were taken care of as not only guests on his tour, but guests to the country of Greece.
The places and sites we visited were a combination of history, charm & picturesque. We were able to take amazing pictures (again courtesy of Elias - he really does it all) that will be life long memories.
My wife & I would highly recommend this tour to all those visiting Athens. Thanks Elias & Team for an exceptional experience!!!

We were with our guide (driver) 6 hours…3 hours were spent driving to & from Corinth & 3 hours observing historical sites while there. Be aware, the guide does not accompany you or give narrations at the historical sites. You go independently & read the signs that give historical details. Also, the cost of the archaeological museum is not included with the tour fee. It’s an additional €15 a ticket. Our guide was friendly & polite. A scheduled lunch is not part of the tour. We were very thankful our guide made a quick stop to get kebobs at a local food stand when we told him we were hungry. They were delicious. We appreciated being able to see where the Apostle Paul traveled.

Thank you for your feedback.
However, everything you mentioned — that the tour is with a driver and not a licensed guide inside the sites, that entrance fees are not included, and that lunch is optional — is clearly stated in the product description before booking. If the description had been read carefully, there would have been no need to “warn” future travelers about it.
We’re still glad you enjoyed visiting the places connected to the Apostle Paul and appreciated your driver’s service.

We just completed this amazing tour on the life of Paul in Corinth with the tour company Colours of Greece. Stelios was our outstanding driver and tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the life of Paul and was very informative regarding the history of Greece. His patience and kindness made this tour extremely enjoyable! We highly recommend this tour and Stelios!
Clinton_B, May 2026
The driver was knowledgeable and courteous. The archeological sites were spectacular. The restaurant on the mountain had great Greek foods and great view.

Theodor was a phenomenal guide. He earned a Master’s degree in geopolitics in eastern Mediterranean and was able to provide in-depth commentary on the history of the region we were observing. He went far and beyond what we had expected. I recommend him very highly.
Beth_B, Apr 2026
Great history of Corinth and a better understanding of the Apostle Paul. Micheal , our guide was great!! Lots of knowledge, very professional. Would definitely recommend this tour.
Taylor_K, Apr 2026
Dennis was our guide and it was such a wonderful experience! He was so helpful we would absolutely recommend him to anyone. He made us feel right at home
Jill_P, Apr 2026
Stelios was very kind and knowledgeable. He took his time and imparted knowledge about Athens, Corinth. And the interesting sites in between. Car was very comfortable. He provided water. We are very good Bible students. He was able to give us information about Paul and his time in Corinth that we did not know. Helpful info. I would recommend a day with Stelios!
Jamacia_H, Apr 2026
Please take the tour. The history is priceless. The knowledge of Apollo Paul. The corinthians church
DennisandPatricia_R, Mar 2026
Excellent tour with Stelios. Information was great, minivan for six comfortable, we ate lunch at the top of the mountain next to the fortress. Stelios was knowledgeable about St Paul and all of Greece's history. An easier tour than in crowded Athens. Highly recommend.

This tour was not what we hoped for and not what we paid for. Our guide met us explaining that his mother was joining us and hoped this was ok. We said fine, no problem. Turns out his elderly mother was previously a tour guide and she ended up doing the narration. It mostly consisted of places and stories of Ancient Greeks with very little mention of Paul. The title of the tour was Footsteps of Paul and we mostly heard about her personal experiences as a tour guide and visits to ancient ruins. Her son, who was supposed to be our guide, only drove us around and dropped us off and returned to pick us up when she called him. This was a huge disappointment for us due to the fact that our main interest was The Footsteps of Paul. It was a waste of our money and time

Dear Customer,
Thank you for taking the time to write your review.
However, you did not mention that you had a licensed tour guide with you inside the monuments. The licensed guide provided you with all the historical facts and detailed information about St. Paul’s footsteps in Ancient Corinth, accompanying you at the Corinth Canal, Kechries, Ancient Corinth, the Church of Apostle Paul, and also inside the Archaeological Museum of Corinth.
We offered this licensed guide as a complimentary service, as she has more than 40 years of professional experience. For your reference, local licensed guides typically charge €150 for only 2 hours in Ancient Corinth. You had a licensed guide with you for approximately 8 hours, explaining everything about Greek history and Apostle Paul.
We are truly sorry that this complimentary service was not appreciated, especially since it was offered to enhance your experience, even though you had not specifically requested a licensed guide.

Michael took us to all of the places we wanted to visit in Corinth, plus a surprise to a special church that was not even on the agenda. He explained all the sites and took us to very nice restaurant on the Acropolis. I highly recommend this tour.
Roy_S, Jan 2026
Very good informative guide, very helpful, my wife and I had a wonderful time. Would recommend greatly Thank you
Janann_K, Dec 2025
This was a moving experience. Our guide did a great job showing us sites where Paul preached. Plus seeing the Corinth Canal was quite remarkable.
Carla_W, Nov 2025
Great trip with Nick following Paul’s footsteps. Nick provided alot of details and insights regarding the sites and Paul’s travels. Thanks Nick for providing a safe trip and special birthday for our 84 year old mother.

Ruslan is knowledgeable, gracious, and accommodating as a guide. He takes you on a walk in the steps of the Apostle Paul.
The port of Cenchreae where he came ashore in AD 51 during his second missionary journey. The Bema seat in the agora where he stood trial. The shops where he, Aquila, and Priscilla made and sold tents. The street with the name of Erastus, the civil servant who would become a coworker of Paul.
A highlight is the Acrocorinth fortress high above the ancient city. This was my favorite tour in Greece.
James_W, Nov 2025
This was a private 1/2 day trip to Corinth viewing many sites relating to St. Paul. The tour itself was not especially religious in nature, but if you have knowledge of St. Paul/Bible, you’ll recognize the significance of Corinth. Dennis was our driver and he was wonderful! He was originally from Chicago, so we had no language issues. He made sure we were comfortable, assisted us getting in and out of the vehicle at every stop, and let us proceed at our own pace. In addition, he provided numerous tourist tips that proved helpful to us. We recommend it, especially silly if you are fortunate enough to get Dennis!

Our trip from Athens to Old Corinth with Ruslan was wonderful. Ruskin was on time, helpful, and very informative. He ensured that we stopped where we wanted to and shared a little of history regarding the area and the sites we saw. The car was very
comfortable and Ruslan did an excellent job maneuvering around tight corners and streets. We were amazed by all the sites we saw - the canal of the isthmus of Corinth; the relics of the old harbor, all the agricultural areas, the relics of ancient Corinth; the Acrocorinth fortress, and the many orthodox churches and monuments to St Paul. It was a wonderful 5.5 hours and I highly recommend Ruslan and this tour.
Raymond_B, Oct 2025
We had a great trip. Our tour guide arrived in a very nice, comfortable, and clean vehicle. I am sorry, I cannot remember his name; he studied history in college. He was very nice and supportive of our wants. It was amazing to get to walk in the same places that Paul once walked. I recommend this tour for people that want to get a really good overview of Old Corinth.

We had a great tour guide, George, who made our tour a great and meaningful experience. He was very respectful and knowledgeable about Paul and the places we visited. He gave us insights as to how each site is special snd related to Paul and his travel and ministry. He even showed us the bible verses that validates the information he shared about Paul and his stay in Corinth, including the people he met and associated with there like Aqyila, Prescilla and Phoebe.
We had a sumptuous, delicious and locally prepared Mediterranea meal that was highly recommrnded by George of lamb chops, Greek salad and dessert. That was the best lamb meal we’ve ever had!
We were transported in a very cllean and elegant vdhicle that had enough space to store the luggages we have. We were picked up directly from the Athens International airport and dropped off at the hotel booked by our friend for us to stay before our cruise.
I highly recommend going on this tour. You will not regret booking it like we did.
Brent_S, Oct 2025
Great to see and experience different areas of Greece. Country, and waterway views and get some historical culture to Paul's journey. Giannis was a great guide and really gave us a great day,!
AndreMarc_L, Oct 2025
Very enjoyable and educational. Nice to walk in the same place St Paul spent 18 months with the Corinthians in 50-51 AD.
Desiree_F, Sep 2025
It was not what I expected. It is not a biblical tour. It’s a drive to Corinth. It’s little about Psul
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Dear Desiree. The information we provide is based on the Acts of the Apostles as well as local history, and unfortunately, that is all we can share. We are sorry if you were expecting something different.
AnsleyRae_P, Aug 2025
Wonderful experience! 10/10 recommend if you’re staying in Athens and want to explore the surrounding area. It was amazing to see ancient Corinth and learn so much history. Our tour guide was fantastic!
Susan_L, Aug 2025
What an exciting day that began with our wonderful Guide, Ziannis, who picked us up an air conditioned and roomy Mercedes SUV! Not only was he knowledgeable but immediately felt like part of our family! Ziannis was courteous, kind, and very attentive to our needs! The tour brought the Bible to life and encouraged our faith knowing that this life is temporary, with all of its ups and downs, but the Glory that awaits us, is worth the wait! Jesus is the answer, always! Don’t miss this experience.

We had the most incredible experience with our guide George. I was traveling with my older mother, and he was so kind and attentive — helping her in and out of the car, making sure she was always comfortable, and even offering us cold water along the way. His communication was excellent, and he was punctual, professional, and a very safe driver.
George’s knowledge of Greek history and culture was truly impressive. He answered every question we had with depth and passion, and shared stories and insights that gave us a whole new appreciation for Greece. He even took us to a few lesser-known spots we never would have discovered on our own — his perspective was so thoughtful and engaging.
This tour was a highlight of our trip, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about George. If you’re traveling with a family member — especially someone older — this is the guide you want. Highly recommend!

Giannis, our tour guide was phenomenal! He was kind, informative, and patient. Highly recommend this company and him as a guide.
D_S, Jul 2025
My family and I just went on a private tour of Following the Footsteps of Apostle Paul with Russlan as our driver/guide. We very much enjoyed ourselves. The tour was terrific- we got sufficient information of the area and its significance to St. Paul, the latter which was important to me.
Russlan was an excellent guide from the start. He texted me early on coordinating pickup from Piraeus port, then even picked us up earlier than planned when we got off the cruise ship early. He dropped us off at the airport afterwards. All on time and no delays.
I highly recommend him as a guide and this tour. Time well spent!
James_M, Jul 2025
Giannis was a so knowledgeable and efficient allowing us to see everything. A great tour and Giannis a great guide.
