Itinerary
Your full-day Jerusalem and Bethlehem tour begins with convenient hotel pickup in an air-conditioned vehicle. The first stop is the Mount of Olives, offering one of the most iconic panoramic views of Jerusalem. This sacred site is linked to key events in the life of Jesus and is a major pilgrimage destination for Christian travelers. Continue to the Garden of Gethsemane, traditionally known as the place where Jesus prayed before his arrest. Enter the Old City through Zion Gate and explore the ancient Jerusalem Cardo, once the main street of Byzantine Jerusalem. In the Jewish Quarter, visit the Western Wall, Judaism’s holiest site. Proceed to the Christian Quarter and walk the Via Dolorosa, leading to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, believed to mark the crucifixion and burial of Jesus. Leaving the Old City, continue by vehicle to Bethlehem.
Your Bethlehem tour begins at the Church of the Nativity, one of the world’s oldest churches and the traditional birthplace of Jesus. Inside, you’ll visit the Grotto of the Nativity, marked by a silver star identifying the spot where Jesus was born. Explore historic Manger Square before continuing to Shepherds’ Fields, the serene area where angels are believed to have announced Jesus’ birth to local shepherds. The site features chapels, archaeological remains, and beautiful pastoral landscapes that bring the biblical story to life. Before heading back to Jerusalem or your final drop-off point, enjoy free time for shopping in Bethlehem.

About Tel Aviv
Tel Aviv is Israel's Mediterranean city of white Bauhaus buildings, long beaches, street markets and a café-lined seafront beside ancient Jaffa.
Tel Aviv was founded in 1909 on sand dunes north of the old port of Jaffa and grew quickly into a city of modernist apartment blocks. Its White City, a large collection of Bauhaus and International Style buildings, is listed by UNESCO. Rothschild Boulevard is lined with these buildings and shaded by trees, and Independence Hall, where the state was declared in 1948, stands on it.
Top-ranked sights in Tel Aviv: Caesarea, Neve Tzedek (Neve Tsedek).
