Bethlehem and Jericho Day Trip

After picking you up from your chosen meeting point around 8:30 am, we'll start our journey to Jericho, considered the oldest city in the world.

We will cross the Judean desert, passing by the Inn of the Good Samaritan and encountering the sycamore tree from which Zacchaeus witnessed Christ passing through the city. We will explore the town walls, recalling the time when Josué marched with his troops through Jericho.

Next, we head to Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus. We'll visit Manger Square, home to the Basilica of the Nativity and the grotto described in the Bible as the birthplace of Jesus. Before leaving Bethlehem, we will climb to Shepherd's Field, where the pastors set off to honor the nativity of Jesus.

Additionally, we will visit the church of Santa Catalina and its caves, where we will see notable tombs and sanctuaries. We will then go to the Field of the Shepherds, the site from which the shepherds departed for the Bethlehem portal to honor Jesus.

After exploring the essential places in Bethlehem and Jericho, we will return to Jerusalem and drop you at your hotel at approximately 6:30 pm.
