Not Just Another Trip

One piece of the pilgrimage that we pay very close attention is the one item that could make or break a trip of a lifetime. The Tour Guide.
All the tour guides we work with have deep personal and theological knowledge of each site. This is their home, their tradition, and their truth. Each one will help bring this pilgrimage to the next level so this trip becomes something much more meaningful. It is an encounter, a pilgrimage, a change in your faith journey.


Once we have secured the minimum number of travelers required for the trip, we will be assigned a tour guide. Our tour guide and bus driver will be with us the entire time we are in each country; only changing guides and drivers when we cross the border.

John Harman and I will be with you on the trip the entire time. You can ask us any questions at any time about logistics, the importance of each site, or a theological question. We have both traveled on several pilgrimages over the past decade and enjoy talking and sharing with pilgrims on every trip.

We leave the USA as acquaintances and return as FAMILY.

  • Mount Arbel – Galilee Region
  • Fish Dinner – yum!
  • Garden of Gethsemane Basilica
  • St. Peter in Gallicantu
