Description of tours:

Tour 1

Full day tour to Jerusalem (on Fridays): The main highlight of this tour will be a walking tour in the old city. We'll reach the Western Wall, surviving relic of the magnificent Temple built by Herod. Following the different stations of the Via Dolorosa we reach the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the holiest Christian site in Jerusalem. We will also visit the Citadel and the Museum of the History of Jerusalem, which is located on the highest point in the Old City, allows a most impressive view of the Old and New City. After lunch (not included) the tour continues with a visit to Mt. Zion (Tomb of King David), the Cenacle (Room of the Last Supper) and the Dormition Abbey. Return to Tel-Aviv in the afternoon.

Tour 2

Full day tour to Dead Sea area and Massada (on Saturdays): This tour combines the discovery of a unique natural phenomenon, the Dead Sea, with one of the most famous historical and archaeological sites in Jewish history, Massada. A cable car makes the ascent from the east side of this cliff towering above the Dead Sea basin. The excavations of Massada unearthed major findings. The well-appointed fortress built by Herod, decorated with frescoes, mosaics, handsome patios and colonnades was the last stronghold of the Zealots, a Jewish faction resisting the Romans. We will then proceed to Ein-Gedi Spa for a refreshing pause and for lunch (not included). Part of the Afro-Syrian Rift, the Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth, about 380 meters below sea level. Rich in minerals, the Dead Sea attracts vacationers from around the world who come to enjoy the thermo-mineral springs. The Dead Sea is extremely buoyant, a float is a must!
