CAco-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.

GBExcellent Organization and Wonderful Tour Guide My husband and I just returned from a 10-day Israel Tour. We were so impressed with the excellent detailed organization of pilgrim tours, from beginning to end. We also want to commend our excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, kind, patient, and highly respectful. He was genuinely concerned for each person's well-being throughout the tour. We thoroughly enjoyed our entire experience and we will be using pilgrim tours again, definitely!! Our guide's name is Avi Levi. Thank you, Avi!!

GBOur Exodus 14 trip was an incredible trip! Our Exodus 14 trip was truly a once-in-a-lifetime, incredible learning experience. In spite of the blistering summer heat (especially at Petra), we had a fantastic journey that brought the Scriptures to life. We highly recommend Pilgrim and look forward to our next trip with Pilgrim. Each part of the trip with Pilgrim is so well planned and seamless. We stayed in great places with great food. It is obvious that everything has been well explored and well thought out. All we had to do was listen, learn, and absorb everything and anything we could while visiting each country.

GBOur guide was Eshcar and I can’t say… Our guide was Eshcar and I can’t say enough about him! He was so incredibly knowledgeable about Israel, the Bible, people in general, and he discussed ways the past relates to the present. He was so kind and genuinely wanted us to understand and appreciate his country. He had a gentle firmness about keeping our group of 24 quiet when he was talking so we could all enjoy what he was saying. He even told us his personal story, which was amazing. This trip for me was life altering and I highly recommend anyone going to Israel to have a licensed guide….like Escher!

GBPacific 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.
