This 11-day trip through Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories along with Jordan is the perfect tour for faithful travellers and it is also an incredible adventure for travellers who are here for the exploration of these fascinating countries. The tour has time to explore the buzz of the city and beaches of Tel Aviv before visiting Tiberias and touring Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Nazareth and visiting many important religious and historical sites and monuments. The tour also includes a visit to the Dead Sea where you can bob on top of this remarkably salty Sea, the lowest place on Earth. The tour also visits the famous Sea of Galilee and Masada. Leaving Israel behind we cross the border into Jordan where we visit some of Jordan's tourist highlights including the Roman Ruins in Jerash, the 'lost city' of Petra, Biblical Mount Nebo and the famous mosaic map of the Holyland in Madaba.
On this tour you get to see most of the highlights of these amazing countries and relate the important religious sites to the relevant important passages in scripture. Our Classic Israel tour also follows a similar itinerary in Israel and a Jordan extension can be booked seperately on request but has less of a focus on connecting sites to biblical writings and features some more general non-religious sites.
Accommodation is on a 3-4 star basis with upgrades available to deluxe 4-star and 5-star hotels.
