Tour of Masada & the Dead Sea

After picking you up at the David Citadel Hotel Jerusalem at the designated time, we'll head to the Israeli desert, passing through the Judean Hills and the Inn of the Good Samaritan.

Next, we'll visit the Masada fort, which the Romans besieged for many months. We will ascend using the Masada cable car known as the Cableway.

At the summit, we'll learn about the history of the ancient inhabitants who chose to commit suicide rather than surrender. We'll also visit the remains of the synagogue that Roman troops attempted to destroy.

After a free lunch, we will relax by floating on the waters of the Dead Sea. Participants can read a book or magazine while drifting along the surface of this saline water.

After this experience on the waters of the Dead Sea, we will return to the bus and begin our journey back to the meeting point in Jerusalem, concluding this 10-hour day trip.
