What To Expect
Start your private to Jerusalem and the Dead Sea at the top of the Mount of Olives home to a large Jewish cemetery with panoramic views across Jerusalem. From there walk to the Gardens of Gethsemane and see the place where Jesus was arrested. Pass through the Kidron Valley and enter the Old City through the Zion Gate on foot.
Upon entering the Old City, you will take a walk through the Armenian Quarter and see the beautiful and brightly colored tiles that decorate the quarter. Continue to the Jewish Quarter and tour through the Byzantine Cardo, once the main shopping street of Jerusalem. Walk through to the Kotel or Western Walk, the last remaining outer wall of the Second Temple built by Herod and the most sacred site in Judaism today taking a moment on your private tour to soak in the atmosphere. Continue your walk with your personal guide to the Christian quarter following the Via Dolorosa to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the site of Jesus’s crucifixion and where his tomb is located. Before leaving Jerusalem, enjoy a wander through the Old City market.
Leave Jerusalem to drive South through the Judean Desert to the lowest point on earth. Stop for a photo at the sign showing you are passing below sea level. In the distance you will be able to see the ancient city of Jericho as well as the Jordanian mountains. Upon reaching the Dead Sea take the opportunity to float in the saline rich waters. Due to the mineral rich waters, high oxygen levels in the air and the diminished UV rays the region is said to have therapeutic benefits. Cover your bodies and face in the special muds and relax on the beach before returning to your hotel rested and rejuvenated.
