We cannot say enough wonderful things about Karl and Julie with First Century Voyages! The trip they put together for our Young Life group aboard the Sea Cloud II was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, beautifully organized, and handled with such care. Karl and Julie made the entire experience feel effortless and incredibly special. Their warmth, attention to detail, and genuine desire for everyone to have an unforgettable experience truly set them apart. We have been fortunate to travel to many wonderful places over the years, and this was truly one of the most memorable trips we have ever taken. Traveling with our Young Life friends made it even more meaningful, and Karl and Julie created the perfect experience for our group. We could not recommend First Century Voyages—or Karl and Julie—more highly. They are exceptional at what they do, and we would travel with them again in a heartbeat!

Three cruises on the Sea Cloud II with First Century Voyages have all been fantastic! Karl and Julie Johnson have all the details covered and provide a first class trip. The intimacy of a ship of this size is wonderful. Highly Recommended!!

SIMPLY THE BEST!!! We have just completed our second AMAZING trip with First Century Voyages. Karl and Julie are exceptional at planning a perfect, smooth and wonderfully choreographed adventure and we now consider them friends. The Sea Cloud II is beautiful, well maintained and so comfortable but it’s the crew aboard that makes it’s truly special and memorable. We are already looking forward to our next First Century Voyage.  Thank you Julie and Karl! We are grateful and blessed by you both!

Julie and Karl Johnson, of First Century Voyages, provide impactful travel experiences.  FCV selectively chooses and curates meaningful itineries.  My husband and I have had the honor of being on 3 FCV trips: 1) Cairo & a Nile River cruise; 2) Rome & a Sea Cloud Spirit cruise from Malta to Naples; and 3) churches of Revelation sites in Turkey & a Sea Cloud II cruise from Turkey to Greece. Great thought is given to every detail. High quality guides are personally vetted. Ships and hotels are expertly chosen. The guests and groups who travel with FCV are inspiring, friendly, and fun. Guest speakers are emensely knowledgable and still relatable. First Century Voyages establishes a high level of travel experiences with lifelong impact.

What a wonderful experience aboard the Sea Cloud II as we followed the travels of the Apostle Paul in Greece and Turkey. The entire trip was exceptional - the ship and crew, the tours, the teaching, the food, the accommodations - it couldn’t have been better. Karl and Julie were the consummate hosts and made sure we were well cared for throughout. We are looking forward to our next First Century Voyages travel experience!

My recent trip to the Galapagos Islands with First Century Voyages is one I will remember vividly. This was a true expedition aboard a National Geographic vessel in every sense of the word. We have travelled with Karl and Julie several times over the past eight years throughout Greece, Turkey, Malta, Italy and Sicily. My takeaway is always “this was the trip of a lifetime.” They truly take care of each and every detail so that upon arrival one can relax, enjoy and take it all in. If an issue arises, First Century handles whatever it may be with a calm, professional and understanding attitude. The accommodations, dining, and excursions are luxurious in every way. The time spent with fellow travelers is inspiring and memorable. The friendships that are forged on a journey like this are enriching and lasting. We look forward to many more exclusive journeys exploring the world with First Century Voyages!

My husband and I recently completed the “Travels of Paul” cruise, including the prelude in Turkey and extension in Greece.  It was the trip of a lifetime for us!  Every aspect and detail of the trip was executed with excellence.  Communication with Julie leading up to the trip was clear and timely.  Our tour guides were knowledgeable and did a great job of sharing the historical and Biblical significance of where we visited and were just fun to be with.  Traveling on the Sea Cloud II was extraordinary, and our other accommodations were amazing - the food, rooms, views, and service.  We met so many interesting people and made new friends from around the U.S.  It was truly an unforgettable trip!  We recommend First Century Voyages without hesitation and hope to travel with them again!
