Explore the ancient wonders of the Seven Holy Churches of Asia as mentioned in the Book of Revelation. In addition to touring Istanbul extensively, the tour includes stops at Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.

Turkey, in antiquity known as Asia, was home to seven wondrous churches. It didn’t refer to an actual building, but rather seven Christian cities in Western Anatolia, which now lie in ruins. Visit these ancient places and walk the same steps that the world’s earliest Christians did.

Before that, you’ll see all of Istanbul’s major sites, including the Hippodrome, the Blue Mosque, and Hagia Sophia. Then you’ll travel to Izmir and start your tour of ancient Christianity, seeing many Roman ruins along the way. Soak in the thermal baths at Pamukkale, just as tourists have done for centuries – it was founded, after all, as a resort town by the Ancient Romans.

Each step along the way, your expert guide will be there to provide you with context and information regarding each of these wonderful cities.
