Description

We can pick up travelers or meet them at a meeting point on Jaffa Gate, Jerusalem From Jerusalem, we take a nearby trip to Bethlehem, the place where Jesus Christ was born. Entering the Basilica of the Nativity we creep through a low doorway called the “door of Humility”. On the walls, we can see golden mosaics with 30 of the 44 pink limestone columns of the nave of the church which were embellished with decorations by the Crusaders. Below the church, there is a grotto that has an engraving in Latin stating “Here Jesus Christ was born to the Virgin Mary.” You will also find in the church a chapel of the manger and the altar of the Adoration of the Magi. (The Three Wise Men). After Bethlehem, we will continue our journey through the Judean Desert towards the Jordan River. We will pass through Bedouin settlements, and the Good Samaritan Inn, and make a brief stop at sea level to take photos and admire the beauty of the Judean Desert. Then, we will turn left and approach the site of Jesus' baptism on the Jordan River. Here, we will have a half-hour stop, during which you will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the waters of the Jordan River. At the end of our tour, we will arrive at a private beach on the Dead Sea, where you can relax, take a swim, and sunbathe. On the beach, you'll have the opportunity to visit a Dead Sea cosmetics store directly from the factory, where you can purchase creams, masks, shampoos, etc., at factory prices.
