Day 1: Arrive Tel Aviv (D)

The beginning of your journey in the Holy Land. Upon arrival you will meet our representative and
be transferred to your hotel in Tel Aviv.

 

Day 2: Tel Aviv - Sea of Galilee - Tiberius (B)

Your tour guide will pick you up from your hotel. We drive for a short visit of the city of Jaffa (Joppa) where we will take
a short walking tour in picturesque alleys of the old, fortified town. We will pass by the house of Simon the Tanner and
marvel at the views from the hill top. We drive north along the coast to the archaeological ruins of Caesarea, built by
Herod the Great in honor of Augustus Caesar. From there we go on to visit Megiddo where the book of Revelations
mentions a great battle at the place called "Armageddon". It is an ancient city inhabited continuously for more than five
millennia (6000-500 B.C). After exploring the ancient ruins we drive toward the Sea of Galilee. Arrive at Tiberias and check-in to your hotel.

 

Day 3: Sea of Galilee (B)

Start the day from historic Tiberias, where Jesus sojourned, and preached on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Our next destination will be Capernaum, the center of Jesus ministry. On to Tabgha, the site of Christ’s miracle of feeding the 5,000 and the Church of Multiplication, where the mosaic floor depicts a basket with loaves and two fishes. We drive on to the
Mount of Beatitudes overlooking the Sea, where Jesus preached the “Sermon on the Mount” and it is believed that Jesus picked his 12 apostles.  We ascend to the Golan Heights to view the panoramic view of the peaks of Mt. Hermon, the
rugged plateau of the Golan Heights, and beneath it the green pastoral Hula Valley. Visit the Yardenit Baptismal Site, located along the Jordan River, south of the Sea of Galilee. Return to Tiberias for another night in town.

 

Day 4: Nazareth - Jordan River - Beit Shean - Jerusalem (B)

This morning we travel to Nazareth, where Jesus spent his childhood, and the Church of Annunciation, built on the site where archaeologists believe the Archangel Gabriel appeared to the Virgin Mary. You will also see Mary’s Well and Joseph’s Church. Proceed to nearby Cana to visit the Wedding Church where Jesus performed his first miracle, turning water into wine. Drive through the Jordan Valley to Beit Shean with its recently excavated amphitheater. Visit the excavations of this beautiful preserved Roman City which was destroyed in an earthquake. Continue to Jerusalem, to check-in at your hotel.

 

Day 5: Masada - Dead Sea (B)

Through remarkable scenery of the Dead Sea we continue to Masada which is situated on an isolated cliff in the Judean
Desert. The site was declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001. Ascend by cable car to the fortress, which was the last stronghold of the Jewish Zealots in their war against the Romans. Visit the excavations, King Herod’s palace, the synagogue, bathhouse and much more. Enjoy the breathtaking view of the Roman camps and the Dead Sea. Nearly 1,300 feet below sea level, the Dead Sea is the lowest point on the earth’s surface. Bring your swimsuit as if weather permits it’s
possible to “float" on the salty, mineral rich, water. Return to Jerusalem for an overnight.

 

Day 6: Jerusalem (B)

Start the day at the Israel Museum’s Shrine of the Book with the famous Dead Sea scrolls, then a visit to the beautifully renovated model of the Herodian city of Jerusalem, dating back to the time of the Second Temple. Enjoy Ein Karem; a picturesque village in the south western outskirts of Jerusalem. This small village has great significance in Christian
traditions, since this is where according to tradition John the Baptist was born. Visit Bethlehem - the birthplace of Jesus at the Church of the Nativity and Manger Square. Return to your Jerusalem hotel.

 

Day 7: Jerusalem (B)

Enter the Old City of Jerusalem where you will see the Western Wall and the actual site of the Second Temple, the Temple Mount. Walk the Way of the Cross, the Via Dolorosa, to Calvary and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, housing both the traditional site of Crucifixion and the Tomb of the ResurrectionTo the southwest, just outside the Old City, is Mount Zion, with the traditional tomb of King David and the Room of the Last Supper. Enjoy the spectacular panoramic view of Jerusalem - the holy city for each of the world’s three great religions – Christianity, Judaism and Islam, from atop the Mount of Olives. Visit the Garden of Gethsemane where Judas betrayed Jesus. Return to your hotel for overnight.

 

Day 8: Departure (B)

Transfer to Ben Gurion airport for departure.
