Step into the heart of Israel’s sacred and historical landscape on the Bethlehem, Jericho And Masada Tour, a 2-day trip departing from and returning to Tel Aviv. This tour package is expertly guided and blends spiritual discovery with the allure of ancient wonders, offering travelers a deep dive into some of the country’s most renowned biblical sites.
Your journey begins by exploring Bethlehem, home to the revered Church of the Nativity and the Holy Grotto, the legendary birthplace of Christ. The experience continues past Shepherds Field, infusing your travels with powerful biblical resonance. Heading south, you’ll reach Jericho, one of the world’s oldest continuously inhabited cities, where millennia of history come alive. A highlight is the visit to Qasr al-Yahud on the banks of the Jordan River, a significant pilgrimage site marking Jesus’ baptism by John.
For those fascinated by ancient engineering and dramatic vistas, the cable car ascent to the summit of Masada is unforgettable. Here, King Herod’s fortress rises above the desert, its ruins telling tales of opulence and resilience over 2,000 years old. The spiritual tone of the trip is complemented by time to unwind at the Dead Sea, where you can experience the unique sensation of floating effortlessly in mineral-rich waters—the lowest point on Earth, and a natural wonder famed for its restorative properties.
This group tour includes one night of bed and breakfast accommodation at your choice of comfort level, ensuring a restful stay after days rich in exploration and insight. With all transportation, guided sightseeing, and select meals taken care of, you’re free to focus on the extraordinary sites and stories unfolding before you.
The USP of this tour package lies in its seamless combination of biblical heritage, archaeological marvels, and the surreal beauty of the Dead Sea—all within a compact, expertly guided two-day itinerary. Whether you’re a seeker of spiritual meaning, a lover of history, or simply eager to experience Israel’s most iconic destinations, this trip offers an immersive and memorable adventure.
