Itinerary
After being picked up in Jerusalem, the group will travel through the settlement of Pisgat Ze’ev, and then onto Ramallah, entering through the checkpoint to reach the neighborhood of Kufr Akab. The Separation Wall divides the neighborhood from Jerusalem.
The group will visit Arafat's Tomb and walk down the streets of this busy city, which is now the de-facto Capital for Palestinians in the West Bank. ADMISSION FEE: 10 NIS
Travelers will visit Jericho, which is one of the oldest excavated cities on the planet, dating back over 10,000 years. The local springs created an oasis in the otherwise arid Jordan Valley, and formed the basis for the successive settlements there. Modern Jericho is a sleepy town of about 15,000 people, and an outpost of the Palestinian Authority within an area over which Israel maintains firm control.
On the trip to Jericho, you'll see additional checkpoints and sections of the Separation Wall, then on to the ancient excavated city, for a view of the Mount of Temptation.
You'll visit Hisham's Palace, built in the 8th century during the Umayyad Empire and exploration of Tel Es Sultan, also known as Ancient Jericho.

About Jerusalem
Jerusalem is an ancient hill city, sacred to Jews, Christians and Muslims, with a walled Old City of stone lanes, markets and shrines.
Jerusalem stands among the Judean hills, about 750 metres above sea level, and its Old City, enclosed by Ottoman walls of the sixteenth century, is divided into Jewish, Christian, Muslim and Armenian quarters. The Western Wall, the Dome of the Rock with its golden dome, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre lie within a short walk of each other, and the Old City is listed by UNESCO.
