Corinth CanalContinue your journey with a stop at the impressive Corinth Canal, one of Greece’s most striking landmarks and the natural gateway to the Corinth region. Although the canal itself is modern, the location has long held strategic importance, as the Isthmus of Corinth connected mainland Greece with the Peloponnese and stood near one of the busiest crossroads of the ancient world. This scenic stop offers visitors the chance to admire the dramatic landscape while also appreciating the geographical setting of the region where St. Paul carried out some of his most important missionary work. It serves as a symbolic and memorable transition from Athens to Corinth.
-
Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos)Ancient Corinth is the central highlight of this tour and one of the most significant biblical destinations in Greece. According to the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 18:1–18), St. Paul came to Corinth, lived and worked there, and remained for a considerable time preaching and establishing an early Christian community. As you explore the site, you will discover the setting where commerce, religion, and public life once flourished, helping you better understand the environment in which St. Paul taught and spread his message. This is also the place traditionally associated with the Bema, where Paul is believed to have stood before Gallio, an event also recorded in Acts. Ancient Corinth therefore offers one of the strongest and most direct connections to the biblical account of Paul’s ministry in Greece.
-
Archaeological Museum of CorinthThe Archaeological Museum of Ancient Corinth offers valuable insight into the historical and cultural background of the city that played such an important role in St. Paul’s ministry. Inside the museum, visitors can explore a rich collection of artifacts discovered in the area, including sculptures, inscriptions, pottery, and everyday objects that reveal the political, religious, and social life of ancient Corinth. These exhibits help bring the city’s past into clearer focus and allow travelers to better understand the world in which St. Paul lived, preached, and communicated his message. A visit to the museum greatly enriches the experience of Ancient Corinth by connecting the biblical narrative with the material remains of the ancient city.
-
A stop at Koimiseos Theotokou Church offers an additional and meaningful spiritual experience in Ancient Corinth. The church is notable for the marble monument bearing the words of 1 Corinthians 13:1–8, creating a direct connection to one of St. Paul’s most beloved teachings. Its peaceful atmosphere and devotional character add another layer to the region’s living Christian heritage and complement the broader biblical journey through Corinth.
-
A visit to the Holy Church of Apostle Paul in Ancient Corinth adds a profound spiritual dimension to this biblical journey. Dedicated to the Apostle himself, the church stands as a living tribute to St. Paul’s presence and mission in Corinth, where he preached and helped establish one of the earliest Christian communities. The site is especially meaningful because it features important religious monuments inspired by St. Paul’s ministry and writings, including passages from the Acts of the Apostles, the Letters to the Corinthians, the celebrated Hymn of Love, and a remarkable exterior mosaic memorial that enriches the spiritual and visual experience of the visit. Together with its peaceful setting and devotional atmosphere, these elements make the church one of the most moving and spiritually significant stops of the tour.
-
Ancient Port of KenchreaiThe journey continues to the Ancient Port of Kenchreai, the eastern harbor of ancient Corinth and an important site connected with the Apostle Paul’s ministry. Kenchreai is directly linked to the biblical account in the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 18:18), where Paul is said to have remained for some time in the region and, before sailing onward, to have cut his hair at Cenchreae because he was under a vow. The site is also connected to Romans 16:1, where Phoebe is mentioned as a servant of the church in Cenchreae, showing that an early Christian community had already developed there. As Corinth’s eastern port, Kenchreai played an important role in travel, trade, and communication across the Mediterranean, making it a meaningful stop for understanding the wider movement of St. Paul and the spread of early Christianity.
-
(Metropolitan Cathedral of Apostle Paul, Corinth) — Situated in the heart of modern Corinth, this impressive cathedral stands as a monument of faith dedicated to Apostle Paul, the city’s patron saint and spiritual protector. Built after the earthquake of 1858 that destroyed the old town, the church reflects a harmonious blend of Byzantine and neoclassical architecture, characterized by its grand dome, arched colonnades, and ornate marble iconostasis. Inside, visitors are welcomed by a peaceful atmosphere and magnificent iconography depicting key moments from the Apostle’s life and ministry, including his preaching at the Bema of Ancient Corinth and his missionary journeys throughout Greece. The cathedral is a living center of worship, and each year, on June 29th, it becomes the focal point of solemn celebrations honoring Saints Peter and Paul. The site is linking the historical Apostle’s footsteps to the enduring faith of today’s Corinthian community.
