Step by Step

Discover the beauty of Jerusalem on this 5-hour tour. You will begin your tour at the top of the Mount of Olives, where you will enjoy breathtaking views of the city from the top .

From the top, you will see the iconic Dome of the Rock, one of the oldest structures of Islamic architecture and a world-renowned symbol of Jerusalem. This monument dates back to the 7th century and, according to Islamic tradition, was built on the site from where Muhammad ascended to Heaven .

You will continue your tour of the Holy Land by visiting places such as the Garden of Olives, also known as Gethsemane. This is where Jesus prayed the night before his crucifixion. You will also visit the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a holy place for Christians that marks the site where Christ was buried and resurrected .

Next, you will visit the Wailing Wall, the holiest site in the Jewish religion and one of the most iconic in the Old City of Jerusalem. The wall is the only wall still standing from the ancient Temple of Jerusalem after it was destroyed by the Romans during the 1st century.
