Under Nativity’s excellent organization and leadership, our pilgrimages offer complete itineraries that include round-trip airfare, first-class hotel accommodations, breakfast, dinner, all transportation, daily Masses, and more!

After breakfast at the hotel, we’ll explore Athens, starting with the eleventh-century Monastery of Kaisariani and then visiting the Acropolis and the Parthenon. We’ll admire Hadrian’s Arch and attend Mass at a local church to experience the city’s spiritual essence. Finally, we’ll return to our hotel for dinner and a relaxing evening, reflecting on our day.
After a hearty breakfast, we set off for Delphi, known for its historical significance. Our first stop is the Delphi Museum, home to the Bronze Charioteer and ancient artifacts.
