Mount Ararat & Harran (The East): Mount Ararat stands as Turkey's highest peak in the East. In the Old Testament, Abraham journeyed from the ancient city of Ur to Harran—also located in modern-day eastern Türkiye—before moving on to Canaan.
Tarsus & Antioch (The Cradle of Early Church): St. Paul was born in Tarsus. In Antioch (Antakya), Peter and many apostles gathered for worship, and it was here that the followers of Jesus were first called "Christians."
St. Paul’s Missionary Journeys: As detailed in the Acts of the Apostles, the ancient Roman cities where Paul traveled—such as Perge, Pisidian Antioch, Lystra, Derbe, Iconium, Cappadocia, Mysia, Troas, Assos, and Miletus—all lie within modern Türkiye. Biblical regions mentioned in Paul's epistles, such as Galatia and Colossae, are also rooted here.
Ephesus and the Seven Churches of Revelation: Ephesus, one of the most important cities in Christian history where the faith was proclaimed to the world, is located in western Türkiye. Furthermore, St. John wrote letters to the Seven Churches of Revelation—Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea—all of which are situated in Türkiye and continually visited by Christian pilgrims.

I've done tours with other travel companies, but Felicity Travel is on another level! The tours were a imersion into the history, culture and religion of ancient peoples. It was all wonderful!
Amazing! Super grateful! These guys were fantastic guides, hosts, friend, and brothers! While they impressed us throughout the entire tour of the 7-Churches, we were extremely grateful of them for looking after us, especially after my wife had a fall.
Arranged a biblical tour through Ertunga from Felicity travel. The experience from enquiry to completion of the tour was of the highest quality and professionalism. Highly recommended.
