    The Opportunity

    Why Greece, and why now.

    Greece is where the gospel first came to Europe. Much of the New Testament was written to churches in Philippi, Thessalonica and Corinth, and to the people living in those cities. Reading those letters in the ruins where they were first heard is an experience few believers ever have.

    Verity Greece opens this story to church groups, universities and seminaries with the same leader-first model we use in Israel. It works as a first pilgrimage or as the next step for groups who have already walked the Holy Land.

    “So Paul, standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious.”

    Acts 17:22

    Ideal for

    • Returning Israel pilgrims
    • University & apologetics programs
    • Pastoral study sabbaticals
    • Church anniversary journeys

    The Sacred Timeline

    Travel through
    the story itself.

    AD 49 · Neapolis

    The Macedonian call

    A vision in the night sent Paul across the Aegean. The journey begins at the harbor where the gospel first reached Europe.

    “Come over into Macedonia, and help us.”

    ACTS 16:9

    AD 49 · Philippi

    Songs at midnight

    Visit the riverbank where Lydia believed and the prison where chains fell away during worship.

    “And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God.”

    ACTS 16:25

    AD 50 · Thessaloniki

    The word sounded out

    Walk the Roman forum of the city whose faith spread along the great Egnatian Way.

    “For from you sounded out the word of the Lord.”

    1 THESSALONIANS 1:8

    AD 50 · Berea

    Searching daily

    A quiet stop that often turns into a group Bible study, following the Bereans who tested every word against scripture.

    “They received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily.”

    ACTS 17:11

    AD 50 · Athens

    The Unknown God

    Stand on the Areopagus in the shadow of the Parthenon and hear Paul's sermon to the philosophers.

    “For in him we live, and move, and have our being.”

    ACTS 17:28

    AD 51–52 · Corinth

    The greatest of these

    Among the ruins of a busy city, read the chapter about love that was written to this church.

    “And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.”

    1 CORINTHIANS 13:13

    c. AD 95 · Patmos

    All things new

    An optional island extension to the cave where the last book of the Bible was revealed.

    “Behold, I make all things new.”

    REVELATION 21:5

    The Scriptural Atlas

    Who We Serve

    For those who lead the way.

    We don't sell to tourists. We partner with the leaders people already follow.

    Churches & Pastors

    Congregational pilgrimages that deepen discipleship and bring a church family closer together.

    Universities & Seminaries

    Academic study tours with biblical archaeology, history and course-ready content.

    Ministries & Denominations

    Leadership retreats, partner trips and journeys for the whole denomination.

    Group Leaders

    Bible teachers, authors and small-group leaders gathering 20 to 50 people they already know.

    The Verity Process

    Why leaders choose Verity to run their group.

    From the first idea to the flight home, we handle the logistics so you can focus on teaching, shepherding, and being present with your people.

    Step 01

    Choose a program

    Browse Greece journey templates following Paul's route through Macedonia and Achaia, or a contemplative Aegean path to Patmos. Each is a starting point your leader shapes.

    Step 02

    Build your group page

    We create a private group page with your Greece itinerary, dates, and price. Share one link — travelers register, pay, and upload documents themselves.

    Step 03

    Flexible payment plans

    Travelers pay in installments with secure online payments in USD. You see who has paid and who needs a nudge — no spreadsheets, no chasing checks.

    Step 04

    Document management

    Passports, insurance, dietary needs, and emergency contacts are collected and stored in one place. You export a single roster before departure.

    Step 05

    Stay connected

    Pre-trip briefings, packing lists, and travel updates go out automatically. Travelers ask questions on the group page, not your personal phone.

    Step 06

    Travel with confidence

    A dedicated Verity coordinator and licensed Greek guide handle every detail. The same team behind 40+ years of Holy Land groups, now in Greece.

    “Thank you!! Just what my husband and I were looking for. I am Jewish and he is Christian and we wanted to see both perspectives. This tour was jam-packed and we loved it. Thanks to Jonathan for his smooth planning and making this dream trip possible.”

    “Wonderful tour. Lot’s of sites, good hotel options and not such a big group. We had 18 people with us and lovely people. Enjoyed dinners on our own and with our new friends. Highly recommend this tour and Shalom Journeys!”

    “I had a great time and met some amazing people on my group. Israel is BEAUTIFUL! The program is full and liked that I had options for hotel accommodations. I was solo so this was a bit pricey but I’m so happy I went and chose Shalom Journeys. They were so easy to deal with and checked-in on me while in Israel. I thought that was very kind and refreshing to experience. Thanks Jonathan!”

    “This was a trip of a lifetime for my husband and me, and everything was handled with excellence by everyone at Shalom Journeys. From helping us with our airline reservations to trip insurance to advise about anything and everything before we left to our greeting at the airport, to the adventure that awaited us once we arrived in Israel, things could not have been more perfect. We had a small group of 13, our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly, Jonathan met us in Israel and joined us, which made everything so much more personable, and our hotels were beyond amazing. I highly recommend Shalom Journeys and would use them again when we go back to Israel.”

    “We’ve always wanted to visit the Holy Land together. This was my husbands first time. He really wanted to learn about my Jewish background as well see the main Christian sites so this tour was the perfect balance. It was a bit hot for us – we went in July but otherwise, perfect. Thank you thank you and Jonathan was such a delight.”
