Jerusalem Walking Tour

Discover all the secrets, enigmas, and legends of the Holy City for the three principal monotheistic religions on this guided tour that explores Jerusalem's history and culture.

Description

After hotel pickup at the scheduled time, we will begin our guided tour of Jerusalem. The tour starts at Mount Scopus for views of the old part of the city, followed by a visit to the Gardens of Gethsemani and the Church of All Nations as we proceed to the old town.

We will traverse HaKardo, the main street from Jerusalem's Byzantine period. In the Jewish Quarter, we will visit the Western Wall, the last remnants of the ancient Temple of Jerusalem, where you can leave a piece of paper with your wishes. Behind the wall is the Dome of the Rock, a shrine to Islam.

Next, we tour the Christian Quarter, visiting the Holy Sepulchre church, believed to be the site of Jesus's crucifixion. We will also walk along the Via Dolorosa Street, where he carried the cross.

Midday includes an hour of free time for lunch at a local restaurant. Afterward, we will explore modern Jerusalem, viewing the architecture of the Parliament of Israel and visiting the Holocaust Museum.

After 10 hours of exploration, the tour concludes at your hotel.
