The Dead Sea

On crossing the border, you will drive to the Arava Valley toward the Dead Sea.
Stop at the Dead Sea for a Float, famous for its high salt content.
The Dead Sea was one of the world’s first health resorts (for Herod the Great) and has been the supplier of a wide variety of products, from balms to Egyptian mummification.
People also use the salt and minerals from the Dead Sea to create cosmetics and herbal sachets.
The Dead Sea has a density of 1.24 kg/L, so thick that swimming is challenging but provides a relaxing floating experience!

Bethlehem

The Church of the Nativity, or Basilica of the Nativity, is a basilica located in Bethlehem in the West Bank Palestinian territories.
The grotto it contains holds prominent religious significance to Christians of various denominations as the birthplace of Jesus.

Visit Jerusalem

Begin the tour with the Mount of Olives—a view over the Old City & the Temple Mount,
Descend the mountain to visit Gethsemane, where it is said that Jesus spent the night before his arrest.
Drive to Mount Zaiton to visit the Last Supper Room and proceed on to the “dormition”,
Walk via the Armenian & Jewish Quarters to the Western Wall, and walk via the Muslim Quarter to the “Via Dolorosa.”.
Walking through Via Dolorosa, the tour reaches the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.

From the panoramic views at the Mount of Olives, our tour guide will give you an introduction to the city and its long and eventful history.

Wailing Wall of Jerusalem

We drive down to the Old City and start with the Wailing Wall, which represents the last remnants of the Jewish Temple, destroyed by the Romans.
It is a remnant of the ancient wall that surrounded the Jewish Temple courtyard and is one of the most sacred sites in Judaism outside of the Temple Mount itself.
It has been a site for Jewish prayer and pilgrimage for centuries, with the earliest source mentioning Jewish attachment to the site dating from the 4th century. Usually, various types of Jews can be seen worshiping here.

After the Wailing Wall, we continue through the Arab Market to the Via Dolorosa, Jesus’ Way of Suffering, which leads us to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, in the Christian tradition, where Jesus was crucified and buried.

The site is venerated as Golgotha and is said to also contain the place where Jesus was buried (the sepulcher).
So the church has been an important Christian pilgrimage destination since at least the 4th century, as the purported site of the resurrection of Jesus.

Today, it also serves as the headquarters of the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem, while control of the building is shared between several Christian churches and secular entities in complicated arrangements essentially unchanged for centuries.

The New City of Jerusalem

We drive to New Jerusalem along the Israeli government district and look at the Knesset building, which is used as the headquarters of Parliament.
After seeing the sights of Jerusalem and learning about its unique history, we go to lunch

Lunch break at one of the local restaurants, followed by some free time for souvenir shopping.
Exit Old City by Jaffa Gate.
Now drive Back to Eilat, we then cross the border back to Egypt
