There was alot on the tour It was alot of walking and hot weather but it was totally worth it. I just wish Jesus ' s apostles would have gone some where flat and cooler lOL. My favorite place was Turkey, it is gorgeous country. All of the countries we were in was gorgeous. Our guides were very knowledgeable. Our tour guide was rude and had left 2 of our travel companions in the hotel while they were going to bathroom. We were going to dinner at that time. It was unacceptable. I felt like we were going going going and we were in a spectacular country and we had no time to enjoy that part and ALL of us wanted to have time to go into the beautiful sea, especially in Mykonos. We all thought we would get time at these island stops when we were not on the itinerary. It was told to us that we were going to do other stuff. On Santorini, we should have been able to get off the ship and just go relax on the island, but it wasn't like that. We had to pay for an excursion to get to the top or even on the island. That was unfair and un-communicated. Also while on the ship, we were told we would need to pay for a drink package in order to even get water. There were signs everywhere in the dining room not to fill up our water bottles and the dining rooms closed after each meal so there was no where for us to even get water! That all should have been included and everything told to us but was not. For that reason all my clients I brought from our office were very very upset. Rome was amazing!! The tour guide we had there, Enrico, was fantastic! Our local guide (Adrianna?) was so knowledgeable. I couldn't believe the things she knew. Because of those two we had the very best time and were treated to more history than we ever could have imagined! Enrico went above and beyond, even when his time was over and we all wanted to go see more of the city. Enrico took us and got us taxis, took us to dinner and shopping, he took us to everything on our want to do list! Being in Rome was full of history and religious moments that I can not even begin to explain. but more than anything we were able to relax and see things in a way that we could take it all in.Show more

It was an overall great trip. Part-educational, part-spiritual pilgrimage, and part-fellowship opportunity to connect with fellow travelers from other groups. Everyone in our group enjoyed the cultural experience. I would love to see in the future if 1-2 more Paul sites can be incorporated into the trip perhaps in place of some of the general-Greece excursions (although those were very enjoyable) or just some more free time in general at some of the places- but I recognize the limitations that come with the timeframe and geography.Show more
