co-led a tour of Turkey co-led a tour of Turkey, the Islands, and Greece for our St. Stephen's University (SSU.CA) travel module for two weeks. The attendees described it as the trip of a lifetime, featuring amazing bucket-list sites, VERY warm and knowledgeable guides, and Pilgrim Tour's ability to create a fast and flexible solution when we faced a city-wide bus, taxi, and Uber strike on the day we needed to get to the airport. We have been with Pilgrim many times, found this same consistency, and when our previous trip was cancelled due to COVID, they are able to recover for more of our deposits than was their obligation under the contract. This last trip was so good that one of our attendees immediately booked two more tours with them. We have shopped around for alternatives before, but clearly won't need to do that in the future.

Pacific Northwest group Pacific Northwest group The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and did a fantastic job explaining the sights. He also gave us a really good historical background to get us ready for each sight. The bus driver was extremely good at his job getting us in and out of all the tight traffic. We were blessed by the trip and highly recommend it to everyone who is thinking about it.

Pilgrim Tours provide enriching experiences Pilgrim Tours provide knowledgeable guides. We were told about the history of the sites as well as the importance of each site Enough opportunities were provided to investigate on our own The guides brought us to places where we could taste authentic middle eastern foods I appreciated that each day had a unique itinerary which was shared ahead of time A great experience I would do it again

Pilgrim Tours is great! Pilgrim Tours is great! Our tour guide was very friendly and informative. He provided us with whisper devices so that we could clearly hear him as we toured the different sites, and he even helped our group when language and cultural barriers lead to a lack of communication and understanding. Also, our driver always made sure his bus was clean and comfortable, with water bottles we could purchase as we went from place to place. The sites were beautiful, and the hotels we were taken to were clean, well kept, and overall comfortable.

From my first phone call to my return home ... From my first phone call to my return home, Pilgrim Tour folks met every need with action and compassion, in spite of a canceled flight out of Boston. They met every promise they made and my experience was beyond what I expected because of the kindness of the tour guides, drivers, hotel staff, etc. The guide in Jordan wasn't at such a high level which cost a star. I plan to return to Israel and will go through Pilgrim Tours again.
