Biblical Ephesus Tour – Follow in the Footsteps of Saints

Ephesus holds immense significance for Christians around the world. Mentioned multiple times in the Bible, the city is especially notable for its connection to Saint Paul, who addressed his famous Epistle to the Ephesians to the early Christian community here. Ephesus is also referenced in the Book of Revelation by John the Evangelist, further emphasizing its spiritual importance. These biblical writings reveal how deeply Ephesus was valued in the eyes of God and the early Church.

On this deeply enriching tour, you’ll have the opportunity to visit key locations mentioned in Acts Chapter 19, where St. Paul’s mission in Ephesus is vividly described. Your journey will include:

• The Grand Theater of Ephesus – This awe-inspiring amphitheater, with a capacity of over 24,000 spectators, is where a riot broke out against Paul’s preaching, as described in Acts 19. Standing in this place brings the scripture to life in an unforgettable way.
• The Temple of Artemis (One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World) – Once one of the most magnificent temples of the ancient world, this sacred site reflects the deep religious and cultural contrasts that Paul encountered during his time in Ephesus.

As you explore these sites, you’ll trace the footsteps of St. Paul, St. John the Evangelist, and even the Virgin Mary, who is believed by many to have spent her final years nearby. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the trials, triumphs, and faith of the early Christians who once lived and worshiped in this city.

Your experience will be enhanced by a professional local Ephesus guide, who will not only provide historical context but also weave together biblical stories and archaeological insights. Their knowledge will help illuminate the scriptures in new and meaningful ways.
