DAY 1 - TEL AVIV & JERUSALEM Friday Our staff meets you at Ben-Gurion airport, assists with arrival formalities,
and escorts you to your Jerusalem hotel.
DAY 2 - JERUSALEM Saturday (B) We start our explorations of Jerusalem, holy city to Christians, Jews and Muslims, with a drive to the Mount of Olives, which offers panoramic views. We visit the Church of Pater Noster and the Chapel of the Ascension on our way to the Garden of Gethsemane. From the Garden, we enter Jerusalem's walls to the Old City for a visit to the Western Wall and the Dome of the Rock. We follow in Jesus' footsteps along the Via Dolorosa to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
DAY 3 - JERUSALEM Sunday (B) Now that you've had a tour of the city, set out on your own to discover its charms: the narrow bazaar streets of the Old City, the cheerful cafés of New Jerusalem, and the broad boulevards surrounding the modern city.
DAY 4 - JERUSALEM & BETHLEHEM Monday (B) We start our tour at the scale model of Jerusalem as it appeared in Herod's time, then go on to the Shrine of the Book to see the sacred Dead Sea Scrolls. Then it's on to Ein Kerem and Bethlehem for a visit to the Church of the Nativity, stopping at the Shepherds' Field on the way back to Jerusalem.
DAY 5 - BETHANY, DEAD SEA & MASADA Tuesday (B) We drive to Bethany and the site of the Good Samaritan's inn, then continue through the Judean Hills down to the Dead Sea, below sea level. At Qumran, we see the caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered. We go on to the verdant oasis of Ein Gedi, and to Masada, where we ascend the natural fortress by cable car. We return to Jerusalem passing by fabled Jericho, the oldest city in the world.
DAY 6 - GOLAN, NAZARETH & GALILEE Wednesday (B) We drive north to Nazareth to see the Church of the Annunciation, built to shelter the grotto where Mary received the message that she would bear Jesus. Passing by Cana of Galilee, we reach Tiberias, on the Sea of Galilee. We sail aboard the Lido to Tabgha, on the opposite shore, returning to Tiberias for the night.
DAY 7 - ACRE, HAIFA, TEL AVIV & JAFFA Thursday (B) Acre, the medieval fortress-city, was visited by Caesar, Richard the Lion-Hearted, and Napoleon.

Israel Everyone wants to go to the holy land. In Israel, faith and history are all around you, from the plains of Armageddon (Megiddo) to the Sea of Galilee, from the Red Sea resort of Eilat to the snow-covered slopes of Mount Hermon. Where else can you pray where the patriarchs prayed, walk where Jesus walked, and see where Muhammed began a fabled celestial journey? It's simply amazing: the Bible becomes your guidebook as you approach the Western Wall of Jerusalem's Temple, crowned by the magnificent Dome of the Rock; or stroll along the Via Dolorosa, now a path through a bustling bazaar, stopping for reflection at the Stations of the Cross. The hilltop city of Jerusalem is your base for day-trips to Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus; Jericho, site of the famous Biblical battle, now a busy Arab town; the Dead Sea, where swimmers bob like corks in the mineral-rich waters; Masada, where a small band of Jewish zealots held off the armies of imperial Rome. Israel is much more than a place of pilgrimage, of course. Its Mediterranean coast has long sandy beaches and bustling seaside resorts. The Red Sea is among divers' favorite destinations for its abundance of colorful underwater life. Archeological digs are active throughout the country in summer, turning up ever more ancient cities. Whatever your beliefs, Israel is a must-see.
