Explore Travel Options
Make sure your Passport is Valid
Passports must be valid for six months beyond the date the traveler will reenter the United States after the Pilgrimage has ended and for the entire period of the visitor's extended stay. This means that to go on our Journey without any extension, your documents must be valid through December 22, 2026.
Acquire Travel Visas
Requirements for entry vary by country. Greece and Türkiye each have their own immigration prerequisites. Rest assured that GiGi’s Journeys and Celebrity Cruises are working hard to ensure that all necessary Travel Documents and Visas are acquired by each traveler.
Talk to your Pilgrimage Planner about your options!
Get Travel Insurance
We know how important this Journey is to all our Pilgrims. A trip like this is not just the experience of a lifetime, it’s an investment. Travel insurance is worth considering in many cases, but especially when you are making a large purchase (like this trip) or traveling abroad (like this trip). We also highly recommend it for any participants with health conditions, or constantly changing lifestyles that might put their trip at risk.
