Rev. Dr. David Buegler

When you travel with Educational Opportunities those two words are descriptive of the experience you will have. It will be EDUCATIONAL through the speakers, the tour leaders (EO has the best in the business) and the pre-trip materials you get to prepare for the journey.  And it will be an OPPORTUNITY for not only connecting to the geography of the Bible but growing your faith in Jesus and experiencing the privilege of traveling with fellow Christians. Since traveling with EO several times I am hooked to their outstanding leadership.

Rev. Ron Biel

We have been traveling with EO Tours for more than 25 years and have found them to be totally reliable solidly faith-based, and have assisted us in planning special tours, and how best to recruit passengers. Seeing all the important places of both Old and New Testament times has awakened me to becoming more excited about sharing my Christian faith.  We have journeyed to where Abraham lived, visited where Jesus ministered, suffered, and died, and privileged to witness firsthand where the Church grew from Jerusalem, Asia Minor and finally all the ways to Athens and Rome. Holy Land tours, St. Paul's travels, and Lutheran heritage tours have blessed my ministry and those I have been called to serve.  It's made me a more complete preacher and teacher. We've been there! It's changed me and can change you.
