Beginning in Izmir, explore Miletus, Ephesus, and the Church of St. Polycarp before continuing through Pergamon, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, Hierapolis, Laodicea, and Pisidian Antioch.
Travel onward to Konya and Cappadocia, where early Christian communities flourished among rock-cut churches, underground cities, and dramatic valleys. Visit highlights such as the Göreme Open-Air Museum, Ihlara Valley, Uçhisar Castle, Paşabağ, and Özkonak Underground City.
