Reiseverlauf
Abholung von Ihrem ausgewählten Hotel, Airbnb oder Apartment in Athen. Fahrt zum Isthmus-Kanal von Korinth... Das Tor zum Peloponnes
Besuchen Sie den Isthmus-Kanal, eines der bedeutendsten Projekte des 19. Jahrhunderts, ein Meisterwerk der Ingenieurskunst, das eine Katalysatorrolle für den Mittelmeerhandel spielt.
Besuchen Sie das antike Diolkos – entdecken Sie die antiken Kalksteinstraßen, auf denen Bootsanhänger, Sklaven, Ochsen und andere Tiere eingesetzt wurden, um Boote vom Golf von Korinth zum Saronischen Meer zu hieven und über 270 griechische Kolonien zu kontrollieren. Alle heutigen Küstenstädte am Mittelmeer waren einst griechisch. Dies führte zur geografischen und geopolitischen Dominanz von Korinth und spielte eine entscheidende Rolle dabei, warum der Apostel Paulus sich entschied, 18 Monate in Korinth zu bleiben und warum er darauf beharrte, sein Amt dort zu etablieren.
Besuchen Sie Akrokorinth, die Akropolis des antiken Korinth, einen monolithischen Felsen 579 m über dem Meeresspiegel mit 7,9 km Mauern – Bergfried und drei Toren. Heute eine der eindrucksvollsten und dominantesten natürlichen Verteidigungsanlagen. Überreste von Kirchen, Moscheen, Häusern und Zisternen sowie der einstige Tempel der Aphrodite sind zu bewundern. Hier graste Pegasus, das geflügelte Pferd. Von hier aus bewundern wir auch den fränkischen Turm und atemberaubende Ausblicke auf das darunterliegende Tal sowie das Korinthische und Saronische Meer. Besuchen Sie die Hadgimoustafa-Quelle: einen Brunnen, der während des Osmanischen Reiches im Jahr 1555 n. Chr. erbaut wurde. Fließendes Wasser aus der Quelle Ober-Pieriene, das zufällig entdeckt wurde, als Pegasus beim Versuch, von Velerefonte und der Göttin Athene wegzufliegen, mit seinem Huf aufschlug, fließt noch heute.
Citae Madre – Die Mutter aller Städte! Besuchen Sie die neobyzantinische Kirche der Jungfrau Maria und bewundern Sie die Marmortafel mit der Aufschrift „Die Hymnen der Liebe“ (1. Korinther 13, 1:8) und „Die Liebe ist das Größte unter ihnen“ (1. Korinther 13, 13). Besuchen Sie die neobyzantinische Kirche, die dem Apostel Paulus gewidmet ist, und analysieren Sie die „Vision des Apostels Paulus“ und Paulus‘ Leben in Korinth. Ein wunderbares Mosaik von Vlasis Tsotsonis zeigt Saulus auf seinem Weg nach Damaskus im Jahr 34 n. Chr., um die Christen zu verfolgen und sie nach Jerusalem zurückzubringen. Wir hören die Stimme und werden vom Licht geblendet. Wir besprechen seinen Übergang, seine Taufe durch Ananias und verstehen seine Nöte in der Stadt Korinth, einschließlich seines „Urteils“ durch Gallio (Apostelgeschichte 9, 7:9, APOSTELGESCHICHTE 9, 10:19, APOSTELGESCHICHTE 18, 12:17
Besuchen Sie das Archäologische Museum: Wir beherbergen eine große Sammlung von Artefakten aus der lokalen und kleineren Stätten in der Umgebung und würdigen die griechische, römische, byzantinische und osmanische Welt. Besuchen Sie die archäologische Stätte: Tempel des Apollo – einer der frühesten dorischen Tempel auf dem Peloponnes und dem griechischen Festland mit dorischen monolithischen Säulen, selten in der Antike, erbaut um 560 v. Chr. Die römische Agora – bestehend aus zentralen Geschäften, eines der besten Beispiele eines römischen Marktplatzes. Kleine Tempel und Altäre, römische Gebäude, das antike Amphitheater, das römische Odeon, der Glaufkus-Brunnen, die römischen Bäder, die Lechaion-Straße, das römische Forum und das berühmte Podium oder Bema, von wo aus der Apostel Paulus „beurteilt“ und zum ersten Mal offiziell den Griechen und Römern als römischer Bürger vorgestellt wurde. Auf dieser Plattform predigte er den Glauben. APOSTELGESCHICHTE 18 12:17
Genießen Sie ein authentisches Mittagessen im „Dorfstil“ im antiken Korinth oder ein wunderbares Mittagessen am Meer in den Thermen der Helena von Troja.
Besuchen Sie den antiken Hafen Kenchreai oder Kenchreä am Saronischen Meer, einen der beiden Häfen des Binnenstaates Korinth. Wir folgen den Spuren des Apostels Paulus und seinem Auszug aus Korinth im Jahr 53 n. Chr. mit Aquila und Prescila nach Ephesus und besprechen das Gelübde der Nasiräer – das Abschneiden der Haare AC 18:18. Rückfahrt nach Athen 70 Min.

Was not prepared for the impact of this incredible tour that Tas provided for us. My wife and I wanted to see ancient Corinth based on the recent study of Acts in the Bible. We had his undivided attention as it was just the 2 of us. Tas was incredible in providing so much detail for the surrounding area. So much rich history. Tas always made sure we were comfortable. Did not let an opportunity go by to share knowledge on something significant. The length of the tour was perfect and it covered so much. If you are looking for a very good “class” on ancient Corinth, for the money, this can’t be beat.
We had a wonderful time on our tour of Corinth. Our driver and guide Bill picked our family up at our hotel near downtown and drove us to see the Corinth canal. A marvelous feat of engineering! We then went to visit the archeological site in Corinth and met up with our guide Vera (arranged for an additional fee, but well worth it). She gave us the history of the site, including the experience of the apostle Paul and the significance of his ministry there for the spread of Christianity. She was extremely knowledgeable and made the site much more understandable than simply wandering around the museum and the grounds by ourselves. After this, we went to the. According and climbed to the top to take in the view. Somewhat exhausting but worth it in the end! We then had the opportunity to have a late lunch to rest and cool off. Then, on the drive back, Bill took us to the port where the apostle Paul sailed for Ephesus. It was pretty amazing to stand in the ruins of a port where Paul caught a boat 2000 years ago we then headed back to the hotel with plenty of time to get dinner. All in all, a wonderful experience!
This is a very simple rating. Absolutely a 5 star for our driver Peter. The tour was titled a ‘Private Biblical tour Ancient Corinth and Isthmus canal’. Peter is very knowledgeable of Apostle Paul’s biblical presence in Corinth and the locations he actually walked on. Quite humbling to think you stood where Paul stood so long ago. The Corinth canal is an engineering marvel. Just wait until you hear about how vessels were transported across the land prior to the canal. Many stops with educational discussions but the highlight was the Corinth acropolis. Massive. Much larger than Athens. And a super museum at its base. If you plan to hike up the acropolis be sure to wear proper walking footwear. The rocks are extremely slippery even in dry conditions. To end the day with an afternoon lunch, we dined on the rooftop of Gemelos Tavern. The pork gyro meat is to die for. No joke. We had traditional Greek salad. So much better than the states. The view of the acropolis is amazing and will be remembered forever. Once again, highly recommend this tour, and Peter is fantastic.
Our guide, Tas, made this trip so memorable and enjoyable. He picked us up on time from our hotel, provided plenty of cold water and snacks, made sure we were comfortable and conversed with us the whole time. He did not set a time limit on the tour, which lasted nearly 10 hours. Tas is very knowledgeable about Corinth as he actually lives nearby and within sight of one of the stops in Cenchrae. Tas is also well versed in the Bible as each location he took us to he gave us the Biblical references of what took place there. He designs the tour to accommodate both those of the Christian faith as well as the non believer. As a Christian, he was able to answer other questions with deeper meaning and discussion as they were asked from us. He took us to about 10 places, including the canal and gave us detailed information at each about what happened, who was there, the meaning, and allowed for questions. One nice touch is he took pictures of us at each stop and sent them to us a day after the tour was complete with references and extra detail for further research. I am unsure if he does this for every tour, but he gave us a gift, a book about Paul and Corinth at the end of the tour. There was not a single dull moment and the conversation with him was truly amazing. I could talk to Tas all week and not get bored. He is a very personable individual and actually cares that you have an enjoyable experience. Would definitely recommend Tas and this tour to anyone considering it. It is defiantly worth it.

We had a wonderful day with Peter. He was friendly and thoughtful in taking care of us. We were picked up right on time just outside our AirBNB and the drive to Corinth was filled with a little friendly chit chat and a lot of very interesting history. Getting the overview of the history on the way to the various stops was a great set up to seeing the sights. Having a guide definitely helped us appreciate and understand what we were seeing. We felt at ease, not rushed, and taken care of all day. Thank you for a memorable experience.

From Athens, it was a little over an hour drive. Yannis was the tour leader. He was extremely knowledgeable and we learned so much. We saw amazing history. Information on Paul and why he spent his time in Corinth. Corinth is such a beautiful place with such importance in history. We could not imagine a better guide than Yannis, truly amazing and highly recommended!

This was one of the most special days we have ever had with our boys 18-22. Particularly if you are a Follower of Christ, Yannis - main tour from Athens to Sites on the way focusing on Paul's footsteps, and Christina as our guide on site at the ancient Corinth Archeological site and museum are incredibly knowledgeable both in Greek and Biblical history. It was really special! Also got into a very spiritual discussion of how Paul's ministry changed and became more effective at Corinth. Incredible depth of knowledge.
Dear Brad, Thank you so much for this heartfelt review. We're truly honored to hear that this became one of the most special days you've shared with your boys. There is something uniquely powerful about walking in the footsteps of Paul, and we're delighted that Yannis and Christina helped bring that journey to life in such a meaningful way. Both of them are passionate about sharing not only the history and archaeology of Ancient Corinth but also the deeper biblical context and significance of Paul's ministry. We're especially pleased that the discussions resonated with your family and added another layer of understanding to the experience. Thank you for trusting us with such an important part of your visit to Greece. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Yannis and Christina—they will be deeply grateful. Warm regards, Ancient Greece Tours
We had an awesome tour with our guide, Giannis! He was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and managed our time well. He was patient to answer our many questions about Athens, ancient Corinth, and the canal. He also took us to the ancient castle in akrocorinth, and we traced the footsteps of the apostle Paul. He recommended an excellent Greek restaurant that had fabulous food as well. And he returned us to our ship right on time as well. We highly recommend him and this tour!
Hi Mandy! Thank you for your wonderful 5* review! We're delighted to hear you had such a great day with Giannis. His knowledge, friendly nature, and passion for sharing Greece's history make every tour special. We're glad you enjoyed Ancient Corinth, Acrocorinth, the footsteps of St. Paul, and of course the local food! Thank you for your recommendation. Best regards from Athens, George
