Patmos Express Tour is a well paced tour that will delight Historians and Theologists alike, experienced or novices.
Our day begins when we meet you at the port of Scala and then proceed to the village of Chora .Here stands the Monastery of St. John within the walls of a strong fortification. This magnificent structure was built 900 years ago and is renowned for its exceptional architecture. You will learn what medieval monastic life was like as we explore the courtyard, the monks’ dining room, and the old bakery before visiting the main church, and its outstanding frescoes and interior decorations.
Next, you’ll see priceless ecclesiastical treasures housed in the small but beautiful museum including books and manuscripts, mosaics, icons, splendid medieval textiles and vestments as well as jewelery.
We journey on to the nearby Grotto of the Apocalypse where the church The Apocalypse stands, a sub-unit of the main Monastery. In this sacred spot you will see silver niches in the wall marking the location of the bed and desk used by the Apostle John, author of the Book of Revelation, as well as a three-fold crack made by the Voice of God emphasizing the honour of the Trinity.
Afterwards, we will provide transportation back to Scala port.

Tour Reviews
I contacted Ada Vegas Travel online and arranged for a guide to meet us when our ship docked on Patmos for the day. We were met by Sophia, a fascinating and outstanding guide. Sophia had a multi-cultural background and was able to give us various perspectives on the sights we saw on Patmos. She shared the religious history of the island, which was the home of John the Beloved as well as Mary, and helped us understand the intricate secular and religious history. In addition, she was excellent company and could give us insights to life on a Greek island in general. She had lived abroad and had a good perspective of island life as opposed to European city life. Her English was excellent and she was upbeat and congenial. I would definitely recommend her and Ada Vegas Travel …
