Christian Tour Athens - Ancient Corinth – Monastery of Daphni

Our driver will pick you up from your designated point in Athens or Piraeus Port to start this 8hrs dream tour that provides a deep dive into the life of Apostle Paul, early Christian history, and the religious artistry of Byzantine Greece.

First stop, Acropolis and a visit to the Areopagus (Mars Hill) where Apostle Paul gave his famous speech about the “Unknown God” to the Athenians.

Located just 11 kilometers west of Athens, the Daphni Monastery is an essential stop for Christian history enthusiasts. Built in the 6th century and renowned for its stunning Byzantine mosaics, it is dedicated to the Dormition of the Virgin Mary. The monastery’s mosaics, especially of Christ Pantocrator, are some of the best-preserved examples of Byzantine art.

After a short stop at the Corinth Canal, we arrive at Ancient Corinth, the city where Paul preached and wrote letters to the Corinthians. This city was a significant location in early Christian history and is rich in ancient ruins.

Visit the Bema (platform) of Apostle Paul, where it is believed that he stood trial. This is a significant place for Christians, as Paul addressed the Corinthians here. Reflect on passages from the Epistles, such as 1 and 2 Corinthians, as you stand in this historic spot.

Kechries (or Cenchreae) was the eastern port of ancient Corinth and holds great significance in Christian history. It is famously mentioned in the New Testament as the place where Apostle Paul departed for Syria after completing his ministry in Corinth. Today, visitors can explore the ruins of the ancient harbor, including remnants of docks and warehouses. It’s a tranquil site that offers a glimpse into the bustling maritime activity of Paul’s time, as well as an opportunity to reflect on his missionary journeys.

We then, return in Athens to drop you off at your designated point or at Piraeus Port.
