Experience Israel’s Christian gems on this 9 day tour package. As a bonus take a one day trip to Petra in Jordan, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. See Biblical sites you’ve heard of in church and read about in scriptures like Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Nazareth. Walk in Jesus’ footsteps on the Mt. of Olives and feel the waters of the River Jordan and Sea of Galilee.
This Nazareth and Sea of Galilee Tour begins with a drive up the coastal road, then we turn off towards the Valley of Armageddon. From here we can see Megiddo. We pass by Mt. Precipice and arrive in Nazareth. Here we tour the beautiful Church of Annunciation and the Church of St. Joseph. On route to the Sea of Galilee, we pass Cana, where Christ transformed water into wine. From a distance, we see Mt. of Beatitudes where Jesus gave the Sermon on the Mount and stop in Capernaum on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. In Tabgha, we tour the Roman Catholic Church of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes. We pass Tiberias on the edge of the Sea of Galilee and stop at Yardenit. This River Jordan baptismal site could have been where John baptized Jesus. On our return journey, we pass Mt. Tabor where the Transfiguration took place.
Take a short flight from Ben Gurion Airport Tel Aviv (Terminal 1) to Ramon Airport near Eilat.
The tour starts with a transfer from Ramon Airport near Eilat to the Arava border, After swiftly crossing into Jordan, we'll take a 2.5-hour ride past breathtaking desert and mountain scenery.
When we arrive in Petra you can choose to enter the famous lost city on foot or on horseback. We’ll tour Petra, a splendid archaeological site dating back about 2,300 years to when the Nabataean people carved their city right out of the red-hued rock cliffs.
You'll see the mysterious Djinn Blocks, the Obelisk Tomb, and all the jaws will drop in front of Al-Khazneh - the magnificent Petra Treasury. Then continue to the amazing Royal Tombs. This intricate complex of burial combines interesting architecture with great views, as some of the tombs are several stories high. You can also take lovely shots in the Colonnaded street, and explore the Petra Theater.
Depart from Ramon Airport Eilat to Ben Gurion Airport Tel Aviv after your truly once-in-a-lifetime experience.
We take in the panoramic views of Jerusalem from the top of Mount of Scopus then travel down the mount passing the biblical Garden of Gethsemane, Church of All Nations, and Kidron Valley which holds monumental Jewish tombs. In the Jewish Quarter, we see the Cardo; the Byzantine-era main street of Jerusalem. We stop at the sacred Western Wall to place a prayer note between the ancient stones of the wall. The tour follows part of the Via Dolorosa to the stunning Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Here we see the site of Christ’s crucifixion and his burial tomb. After a lunch break and walk through the Old City bazaar we travel to new Jerusalem. Driving through the modern city we reach Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum. The museum’s exhibits include authentic artifacts, original documents, photos, and video testimonials of Holocaust survivors.
Join our Christian Jerusalem Jesus Tour to trace Jesus' footsteps on the Mount of Olives, visiting sites like the Church of the Ascension and Garden of Gethsemane. Explore historical landmarks such as the Pools of Bethesda and Via Dolorosa.

Take this Bethlehem and Jericho tour past the Inn of the Good Samaritan and descend beneath sea level to the ancient city of Jericho. In Jericho see the sycamore tree climbed by Zacchaeus when he tried to get a better look at Jesus. Recall the biblical tale of Joshua marching his troops around Jericho’s city walls until they fell. The tour leaves Jericho passing the Mount of Temptation and continues to Qasr al-Yahud on the Jordan River where John baptized Jesus. Then the tour visits Bethlehem where Jesus was born just over 2,000 years ago. The Bethlehem tour stops in Manger Square and we enter the Church of the Nativity which holds the Holy Grotto where the nativity took place. The tour visits the adjacent Church of St. Catherine and its subterranean caves holding ancient tombs and shrines. From here the tour passes Shepherds Field and returns to Jerusalem.
This tour heads to southern Israel through the Judean Hills and past the Inn of the Good Samaritan. We pause at sea level for an unforgettable photo-op then continue our descent further and further down beneath sea level towards the iconic Dead Sea. Our first stop is at Masada where we take a cable car to the plateau summit and tour the remains of Herod’s 2,055 year old palace fortress. We see remarkable structures including palaces and a bathhouse. From Masada the tour takes you past the desert oasis of Ein Gedi and Qumran where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found. We spend the rest of the day relaxing on one of the Dead Sea beaches. You can float in the salty-water that is 8.6 times more saline than the ocean creating natural buoyance. Use the Dead Sea mud as a natural skin mask and soak up the glorious Dead Sea sun.
