Pilgrim Tours Anmeldelser 

Most memorable experience ever!!!
I went on the 15-day exodus trip, and it has been the best traveling experience I've had in my life! Words cannot explain how thankful I am for the amazing work done by Pilgrim Tours and staff. All three of my tour guides were fantastic and very knowledgeable. The Bible took a 360* turn for me after stepping over the soil described in it! It was just wonderful. I learned so much, and now when I read, I can picture some of these places in my head and takes me back to a total different dimension. I loved and enjoyed the history covered, which was so rich and the places, the stories, the biblical references made at museums, historical places, archeological sites, etc were beyond my imagination. I met Christian people there, who have now become very close friends in the faith! It was all God ordained and orchestrated. I am beyond thankful for Pilgrim Tours and would a 1000% go again and recommend their trips!!!

We had such a good time on our trip to Israel. We were traveling with a few friends, but joined a larger group when we got there. The hotels were really good, most had a view room. The food was pretty good and had enough variety for everyone. We traveled on a luxury bus with a wonderful guide who kept us entertained with stories from history everywhere we went. Every part of the trip was planned from our camel ride in Nazareth to our boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. I would recommend Pilgrim Tours to even my most discerning friends.

The tour was an excellent and informative first look into Israel. Our guide and driver were helpful and friendly and knowledgeable. The hotels were wonderful and the food awesome. I especially enjoyed the stay at the kibbutz on the Sea of Galilee. Our group was rather large at 40+, so there were times it felt a little rushed. I would have loved a little more time at several spots. I would definitely take it again, but choose a time with a smaller group. Definitely worth every penny!

Memorable trip!
Pilgrim Tours really made our trip to Israel a memory of a lifetime! It was well organized and I felt safe while they guided us through all our travels. Will travel with them again given the chance!

We took the best trip of our life with the help of Pilgrim tours. It was a dream of ours to experience the holy lands. When we were researching tours we discovered Pilgrim tours. They had some tours that suited our interests so we eventually booked with them. We ended up booking two tours and some extra days in Jordan by ourselves. Everything went like clockwork. We never felt unsafe and always had a contact person when we were on our own.
The tours we took were phenomenal!! We were on a Christian tour and what a difference that made. Not only were the guides believers but all of the group were as well. This made for a very happy time.
We loved our guide in Israel and it is a dream of ours to be able to go with our family on the same trip with Mickey as our guide for the Israel portion.
So if it’s a dream of yours to see where Jesus lived and walk where Jesus walked while studying the relevant bible stories,look no farther—Book your tour with Pilgrim

Pilgrim Tours provided an exceptional tour highlighted by exceptional tour guides. All agenda sites were seen with a few additional bonus sites. Overall experience was 5 stars including food, transportation, safety, accommodations and health care (which we needed to utilize twice).

Pilgrim Tours took (my group) and me to just about every conceivably interesting site imaginable. I felt like we missed nothing, but the tour never seemed rushed at all. Micky Nikolaev led our group, and in between visiting the main sites, we would stop briefly for what he would call the Kodak moments where we would optionally step out of the bus and cogitate over the dry and seemingly innocuous landscape. Micky explained in memorable detail all of the series of events which occurred on these spots and we would get blown away by the immense history of these little Kodak moment locations.

I grew up in the mile-high state of Colorado, and when I visited the sea level and even below sea level locations, my body experienced difficulty adjusting to the altitude difference and I felt a mild form of reverse altitude sickness. I never experienced any nausea or headaches though, I actually felt a curiously persistant yet deceiving sensation of hunger. Nothing to do with the tour guides obviously, and no one else mentioned anything, so I might have been the only one who experienced it.

Having traveled 41 countries around the world, without a doubt I can say that pilgrim tours gave me the best experiences! I took the Exodus tour which went to Egypt, Jordan and Israel. The guides were exceptional and the group that I joined where of like-minded people that made for a most pleasant experience! As a single traveler, I felt safe and confident on this tour!

From the pre-trip arrangements and information, through the actual travel, and to the end, all the personnel at Pilgrim Tours were informed, friendly and helpful. We appreciated the good communication from the office, as well as the wonderful guides in both Turkey and Greece. Accomodations, meals and transportation were excellent. We were happy to make new acquaintances, and appreciated good amounts of time for both the tours and personal time. We hope to use Pilgrim Tours again!

Very thorough. My agent gave me some good advice about Israel and how to navigate through. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and the price was extremely appropriate. There were churches offering trips to Israel but they seemed to be much more money. These are the reasons why I went with Pilgrim Tours. The tours might be different now, but we paid for lunch maybe twice and all the rest of the meals were included, which allowed us to purchase more souvenirs.

I went on the Exodus (Jordan, Egypt, and Israel) tour. It was wonderful. The guides were amazing, funny, and kind. It was a great atmosphere and it was very interesting the way the presented the history.

This tour was impeccable in every way. It was "The Footsteps of Paul and John" and took us through Ephesus and Sardis in Turkey and Philippi, Patmos, Crete, the beautiful blue-topped Santorini, Corinth, Thessalonica, Athens (Mars Hill - Acts 17; Acropolis) and so many other key sites in Greece. It covered land and sea - the beautiful Aegean Sea! One of tons of highlights was the fact that our tour guide was Grecian with an in-depth knowledge of Scripture and ancient Greek Mythology; his knowledge of mythology gave us some amazing understanding of the culture leading up to and in the early Church Age. The schedule was always spot-on and all other travelling details were just super, including the food and a stopping point at a Turkish home where the lady of the house prepared a meal; and a stopping point at a Turkish run factory and major supplier (some commercialism worked into in but in an interesting and informative manner!). TAKE THIS TRIP if you can; you will be BLESSED! We felt as if we had walked some of the many steps of Paul and John!!! Cheers!

I took a trip with Pilgrim in June of 2018. We went to many sites in Israel. It was the trip of a lifetime. I am sure that I will never have a trip that will live up to this one again unless I go back to Israel. Our tour guide Mickey was fantastic.

The tour and tour guides were fantastic. Both were very informative and helpful. I loved Egypt and if i are allowed I am going back to Egypt. There is really no way to describe Egypt or Israel. You have to go there and Pilgrim Tours is the only tour company I would consider.

We traveled with Pilgrim Tours my sister and I we did footsteps of Paul and John in April and May 2019 it was very good very good I gave it a four-star and I would again our flight to Istanbul Turkey was not exactly good but that was kind of on our own travel.
Our tour group included about 20 people which was a little much but as far as hearing lectures it seem to work out OK.
Hotels where we stayed for the most part I would give them a 3 to 4 star rating.
Food was OK most of the time.
Sometimes the tours were fast-moving but the guides were informative I felt that it was very helpful to have studied ahead of the various places that we traveled.
Buses were very comfortable for the most part.
I think in the future I might try to do this trip again same one.

My dream had always been to go to the Mediterranean area and to Biblical sights.
We chose to go on the Journeys of John and Paul with Pilgrim Tours!
It was Fabulous in every way. We were meet at the airport and taken to our destination in Turkey, once there every detail was taken care of. The tour guides were the best and gave us the tour we had always dreamed of from not only a strong Biblical stand point but a historical stand point. As a student of the Bible and a history teacher it was just what I needed and wanted.
I am ready to go back!!!!

Chose Pilgrim for our Israel Tour for May 2019 based on reviews I had read. We were not disappointed. Every detail was taken care of. We had an excellent tour guide, Avi Levi, who we all fell in love with and a great bus driver who kept us supplied with cold water. We had absolutely no complaints. The hotels and food were great! Do not hesitate to choose Pilgrim. Their agents from the beginning are top notch to deal with. We are currently using a Triple A agent for a Viking Cruise and it has not been a good experience as compared to the service from Pilgrim. In fact the 4 of us have booked the Italy/Oberammergau trip with Pilgrim in 2022.

In 2018 our family of 5 went on the Exodus Tour with Pilgrim. We are Canadian and there aren’t a lot of these kinds of tours within our budget. I spent quite a bit of time researching various tour groups, mindful of both experience and safety-we are so glad we went with Pilgrim. While I love the variety of experiences in each segment of our tour, I was blown away with the rich Christian history in Egypt. Each tour guide was amazing with their knowledge and personal touch. We are looking at the Footsteps of Paul tour with Pilgrim, once travel restrictions lighten up. Our daughter’s were 18,16,14 on this trip and we have wonderful lasting memories.

My entire experience was excellent. In booking the tour the consultant was honest and and made me feel at ease with my concerns as a single woman traveler. The tour itself was super. Our guide knew equally well the Jewish and Christian history and sites we visited, and presented the pertinent scriptures right before we saw them in person, so our historic imaginations were really active. It’s very affordable for all you see. My tour was 10 day to The Holy Land,
with a baptism opportunity in the Jordan. I
recommend as excellent. Martha Kearns

Our experience with Pilgrim Tours exceeded our expectations. Though we have travelled quite a bit, it was the first time we utilized a tour and we are so thankful we did. Admittedly, we were a little skeptical that it would cramp our style. It didn't. We had a terrific trip and Pilgrim was an excellent partner. Our registration and travel arrangements were smooth and there was plenty of good communication. The tour was excellent and also was incredibly smooth. Our guide was extremely engaging and well informed. We learned so much. He and our bus driver were awesome at getting our group to sites ahead of the crowds so we could enjoy them as much as possible. The value of this cannot be overstated. We packed so much into each day. Pilgrim didn't just match the itinerary, they even added a few extras in. Sadly, in just over a week it is impossible to see everything, just more reason to go back! But, we were delighted and surprised at just how much we did see. The days were full, but each ended with plenty of good food and very nice accommodations. Many have asked if we felt safe traveling to Israel. We always did, so don't let fear stop you from going. We will cherish the things we learned, the new friendships we formed, and the memories we made for life. Experiencing these ancient sites brought the Bible to life. We read it with fresh eyes and new awareness. Thank you Pilgrim Tours!
