What you can expect

  • Discover the highlights of one of the world’s oldest cities, Jerusalem. Tour the Old City and its consecrated landmarks as your knowledgeable guide enlightens you on the region's extensive religious and cultural history. Drive up to the Mount of Olives for stunning views over the area.

    Take in the must-see sites of historic Jerusalem on a half-day tour of the ancient city. Begin by enjoying the morning light from the summit of the Mount of Olives, an old Jewish cemetery and a site of important biblical significance.

    Proceed to the Old City, entering through the Jaffa Gate, and stroll through both the Armenian and Jewish Quarters to the Cardo—a recently excavated and restored Roman road. Continue to one of the world's most sacred sites, the Wailing Wall, or Kotel, which has been a place of Jewish pilgrimage for centuries.

    Pause at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre—a location venerated by the Christian faith—before utilizing your guide's expertise to negotiate the warren of paths inside the Arab market as your tour is completed.
