Jerusalem tour in Depth
(6 Days on a Private Basis)
Jerusalem is one of the world’s most historically
important cities and well warrants in-depth exploration to
truly experience its magic. A city of countless monuments of
enormous significance to Jews, Christians and Muslims - the
entire Old City is a UNESCO World Heritage Site - it is also a
place of great beauty, with a balmy, Mediterranean climate and
year-round sunny skies warming the golden hue of its limestone
buildings. Today Jerusalem is a fascinating mélange of
cultures, created by the traditions culled from the diverse
backgrounds and religions of its varied citizenry. On this
in-depth tour, your expert private guide will bring Jerusalem
and its multi-layered history alive through comprehensive
touring of the city. Touring is flexible and based upon your
interests. In addition to touring well-known attractions and
areas such as the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, Via Dolorosa, Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial and museum, the Mount of Olives
and the Western Wall, also visit fascinating but lesser-known
neighborhoods, museums, and markets. Learn about the city’s
varied architectural styles, including Roman, Byzantine,
Romanesque, Islamic, and Art Deco. Browse art galleries,
specialty shops, markets and souks as your guide helps you
experience the very best the city has to offer.
One day, take an excursion to the Dead Sea, the
lowest point on earth. Begin in Qumran, where the
precious Dead Sea Scrolls (now located in Jerusalem’s
excellent Israel Museum) were found. Continue to
Masada, the historic mountaintop fortress that is today
one of the Jewish people’s greatest symbols. Conclude at one
of our favorite Dead Sea beaches - beautiful and away from the
crowds. While there, we recommend relaxing with a float in the
salt and mineral-laden water, famous for its buoyancy and
therapeutic qualities.
Accommodation is in top rooms at the King David Hotel,
Israel’s foremost luxury property and a historical landmark in
its own right.
