Overview

Two thousand years ago, Paul the Apostle walked into Corinth — one of the most powerful and morally complex cities of the Roman world — and stayed for eighteen months. He wrote two of his most important letters here. He stood before the Roman magistrate at the Bema. He sailed from the port of Cenchreae towards Syria, carrying a faith that would change the world.
This private tour follows that same journey with the reverence it deserves. From Athens, you will travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle to the Corinth Canal, Ancient Corinth, Isthmia, and Cenchreae — the very port from which Paul departed. At each site, your driver will guide you through the biblical and historical context of what you are seeing.
For those who wish to go deeper inside the archaeological site, a licensed guide upgrade is available.
This is not sightseeing. It is a pilgrimage.

Activity itinerary

Athens (Pass by)

We start our journey from your preffered location

Isthmus of Corinth

  • 20m
Begin your journey at the Isthmus of Corinth, the narrow strip of land that has linked mainland Greece to the Peloponnese since antiquity. This historic passage once formed the natural divide between the two regions and carried immense strategic and symbolic significance. In 1893, the construction of the Corinth Canal transformed the landscape, slicing through the 6.3-kilometer-wide isthmus and effectively making the Peloponnese an island. Today, the canal’s towering limestone walls and crystal-blue waters create a breathtaking setting and a memorable introduction to the rich history and engineering legacy of Corinth.

The Diolkos

  • 10m
A short distance from the canal lies the ancient Diolkos, an extraordinary engineering achievement that predates the Corinth Canal by more than two thousand years. This stone-paved trackway enabled ships to be hauled across the Isthmus of Corinth, avoiding the long and hazardous journey around the Peloponnese. Exploring its surviving remains offers a vivid insight into the ingenuity of the ancient Greeks and reveals how crucial this route once was for commerce, communication, and naval power.

Ancient Port of Kenchreai

  • 20m
Arrive at Cenchreae, the eastern port of ancient Corinth, where the Apostle Paul is traditionally believed to have arrived during his ministry in the region around A.D. 51. It was also from here that he later departed for Ephesus, and the port is closely associated with Phoebe, the prominent Christian woman mentioned in Paul’s Letter to the Romans as a deacon of the church in Cenchreae. Although only limited remains of the ancient harbour survive today, the site retains profound spiritual and historical significance as a place connected to Paul’s mission and the early Christian community.

Archaeological Museum of Corinth

  • 45m
  • Admission ticket not included
Complete your experience at the Museum of Ancient Corinth, established in 1932 to preserve the extraordinary artefacts brought to light through decades of excavation. The museum offers valuable insight into the city’s rich and layered past, with notable highlights including prehistoric discoveries and finds from the Sanctuary of Asklepios. Through its thoughtfully arranged galleries, visitors gain a vivid sense of the daily life, spiritual world, and artistic legacy of ancient Corinth, making it an ideal conclusion to your exploration of the archaeological site.

Acrocorinth

  • 40m
  • Admission ticket not included
Explore Acrocorinth, the majestic acropolis that watched over ancient Corinth and served as one of the most important strongholds of the ancient Greek world. Rising dramatically above the city, it was not only a strategic fortress but also a place of deep religious significance in antiquity, most notably as the site associated with the celebrated Temple of Aphrodite. Revered in the ancient world and surrounded by traditions that reflected Corinth’s wealth, power, and reputation, the sanctuary added a powerful sacred dimension to the hill. As you explore the ruins and enjoy sweeping views across the surrounding landscape, you will encounter a monument where military strength, myth, and ancient worship were closely intertwined.

Apostolos Pavlos Church

  • 20m
Conclude your journey at the modern Church of Saint Paul, located in the heart of ancient Corinth. Inside, an impressive mosaic by the artists Pastorutti and Tsotsonis brings to life the apostle’s mission and presence in the city. As a modern tribute to one of Corinth’s most significant spiritual figures, the church offers a thoughtful connection between the city’s early Christian past and its living heritage today, providing a fitting and reflective conclusion to the tour.
