Our agency specializes in custom tours and pilgrimages to the holy
pilgrim sites and places of interest of the Early Church and Eastern
Christendom. Our tour themes include Sacred Art, Christian Monasticism
and uniquely tailored tours that combine elements of pilgrimage to the
most revered sites of the Christendom with interesting educational
historical excursions. The director and spiritual advisor of the
company is a Russian Orthodox priest. We therefore proudly offer
numerous unique tours of Russia. Each of these Russian tours deal with
different aspects of Russian church and state history, and national and
regional culture. All of our tours are designed individually in order
to accommodate people in the best way possible and to provide the most
comprehensive insight into the tour theme. We offer a number of
pre-packaged tours every year, but we also welcome parish, group and
individual requests for organizing custom made tours. While we are an
Orthodox Christian company, we are glad to work with anyone who has a
serious interest in the themes that we offer and who would be
interested in our professional services, offered in the spirit of
Christian love, honesty and cordiality.

"In the Footsteps of the Forgotten English saints"
September 6 – 18, 2010
“In the Footsteps of the Forgotten Saints” is a religious and historical pilgrimage to the holy places associated with the early saints of the ancient Anglo-Saxon Church. The tour offers a rare glimpse into the often misunderstood and marginalized history of the unique development of Christianity on the British Isles. We will explore this spiritual tradition, which predates the powerful forces of religious politics and invading armies that distanced the ancient British Church from her Orthodox beginnings. Though very little remains from the period before the Norman Conquest of Britain in the eleventh century, we will bring back the lives of forgotten saints through services, tales and visits to surviving monuments of England’s Orthodox past. Guest lecturer for our pilgrimage is Dr. Paul Cavill, professor of Old English Literature at the University at Nottingham and author of several books on Anglo-Saxon Christianity.
