Christian Pilgrimage
Church Group Tours to Turkey
Faith-based group travel done properly — the Seven Churches of Revelation and Paul's journeys for congregations, ministries and pastor-led tours. Coach sizing, hotel blocks, reflection time and one Istanbul coordinator.
All tours are operated by Turkey Travel Agency, a TURSAB-licensed turkey tour operator and incoming DMC since 2014.
Church groups from the USA and UK
American congregations typically need Turkey e-Visas and prefer 7–10 day Revelation loops with USD quotes — start at /turkey-tours-from-usa or /contact?market=usa. British church groups are visa-free for 90 days and often request GBP invoices — see /turkey-tours-from-uk or /contact?market=uk. Both markets book spring and autumn to avoid peak heat on the Ephesus–Laodicea circuit.
Pastor-led pacing and logistics
We size coaches for 10–50+ travelers, block hotel rooms, and leave reflection or communion slots in the daily schedule. Your pastor leads devotionals; our licensed guides handle history and site logistics. Packages: /packages/seven-churches-7-day-tour and /packages/seven-churches-10-day-tour.
Seven Churches and Paul routes
Most groups follow Revelation 2–3 through western Turkey; many add Pauline sites or a Patmos extension. Hub: /seven-churches-turkey-tour. DMC net rates for ministries: /turkey-travel-dmc.
