Day 1 ~ Rome. Your cruise departs from Rome. Fly in early or add days at the end. Your options are endless!  Rome was such an important place for the Paul.  You can visit the prison where he was kept, walk the Appian Way, marvel at Circus Maximus – the place where all of the martyrs were hung upside down on crosses and so much more.  There are also other tours if you have been to Rome – they include  Medieval tour, Ancient Ostia, Archeological tour, Baroque Rome, Imperial Rome, The Vatican, The Borghese Gallery, Splendour of the Palaces or even a trip to Florence or The Lakes!

Day 2 ~ Naples/Capri. Pompeii is the most important historic site in this part of Italy; at one time it was a prosperous city with 20,000 residents. The eruption of Vesuvius in A.D. 79 buried the town for some 1,700-plus years. It was rediscovered in the mid-18th century as a result of excavations, and visitors can now wander the streets of this ancient, doomed city. Or visit the island of Capri, located just across the Bay of Naples, has charming villages (Anacapri and Capri) full of boutiques and sidewalk cafes and is a fun destination for easy-going sightseeing. Other diversions include a boat trip to the Blue Grotto; it's a fabulous sea cave.

Day 3 ~ At Sea. Private Bible teaching on board today.

Day 4  ~ Athens, Greece. Tour Mars Hill and receive a special private teaching then up to the Parthenon, visit the quaint Plaka district with the same streets of marble from Paul’s day, visit the monastery’s built in his honor and more!

Day 5 ~  Rhodes, Greece. Mountainous Rhodes is a classic destination in the truest sense. The sunniest spot in Europe offers 3,000 years of history. Part modern, part Medieval, and 100% Mediterranean, the city is adorned with graceful Italian architecture and lies nearby a wealth of archaeological sites. The Gate of Freedom leads through the towering city wall to the remains of the temple of Venus, the Street of Knights, and the Palace of the Grand Master. Folk dancing and Socrates Street hops with freewheeling restaurants, cafes, and shops. Mosaics of colorful umbrellas decorate the popular, pebbled beaches.

Day 6 ~  Ephesus, Turkey. We will enjoy a teaching in the actual amphitheatre where Paul spoke to the Ephesians. We will see the most fully laid out Roman city that has been excavated. This is believed to be the best kept archeological site in the Mediterranean.  This visit will be one of your most memorable experiences.

Day 7 ~  At Sea. Praise and worship.

Day 8 ~ Haifa, Israel.  Today will be overwhelming as we visit the Via Dolorosa – Way of the Cross, visit the Garden Tomb (Empty Tomb) for communion, the Garden of Gethsemane, visit the Wailing (Western Wall), see the Dome of the Rock, the Upper Room and the Old City of Jerusalem and its famous gates and neighborhoods.  Tonight you will have the option of spending the night at a quaint church run hotel inside the Old City.  Imagine waking for coffee and devotions on a balcony above the hustle and bustle of this significant city!

Day 9   ~ Ashdod, Israel. Today we travel into the Land of Milk and Honey and see the Galilee where Jesus spent much of His ministry.  We can visit the Mt. of Beatitudes, Capernaum, enjoy Peter’s fish lunch, have praise and worship on the Sea of Galilee on a boat cruise and then return to Ashdod this evening.

Day 10 ~ Alexandria, Egypt. Alexander the Great chose a Mediterranean fishing village for his namesake city in 331 B.C., and what a city it became! Alexandria was once home to the Pharos lighthouse, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and the Alexandria Library, a bibliophile's dream with 500,000 books lining its shelves. Visitors can also explore the swirl of stalls at the suqs or take a dip at a Corniche beach.   If you prefer to go into Cairo we will drive South through the desert and into Giza.  We will see the Pyramids at Giza and the Sphinx and the many tombs in the area.  You can visit the inside of one of the Pyramids and see the Solar Boat – an ancient boat in its full form.  We will also visit the Khan el Khahil bazaar.  Tonight you can stay at a hotel with a view of the Pyramids.

Day 11 ~ Enjoy breakfast and then a very interesting trip to the Egyptian Museum!  We will visit the Mummy room and come face to face with the mummy of a Pharaoh whose lungs body cavity was found to have salt water in it!  This could be the very man who chased the Israelites.  We will also find many other treasures in the museum that confirm The Word of God to be true.  After our morning at this amazing museum we will visit the City of the Dead and a wonderful ministry who takes care of the many children who live in this ancient cemetery.  Return to the ship tonight.

Day 12 ~ At Sea- Coffee on the sun deck, time for devotionals.

Day 13 ~ At Sea.  Private teaching today

Day 14 ~ Arrive back in Rome where you can add more exciting days if you so wish!
