About this trip
Five days tracing the major Christian sites across Israel, with a guide leading you through each day rather than leaving you to piece the history together yourself.
You cover a lot of ground, from Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee in the north to Bethlehem and Jerusalem, with Masada, Jericho and the Dead Sea worked in as well. It suits anyone wanting the key biblical sites explained on the ground rather than read off a plaque.
Four nights of accommodation are included, with daily pickup from Tel Aviv or Jerusalem hotels and drop-off back in the evening.
What you'll do
- Walk through Nazareth, where Jesus grew up
- Visit Capernaum and other sites around the Sea of Galilee
- See Bethlehem, traditionally held as Jesus' birthplace
- Follow the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem to the Holy Sepulchre Church
- Stand on Masada and float in the Dead Sea
- Explore Jericho
- Early starts — pickup from Tel Aviv is 06:30 and Jerusalem 07:40
- Long days — drop-off is typically between 17:30 and 19:00
- Guided throughout, so little is left for you to organise yourself
Worth it if you want genuinely knowledgeable guides and reliable logistics. Think twice if you're fussy about Jerusalem accommodation quality.
- Guides consistently named and praised across reviews; Rom, Yoel, Hezi, Zahi, Hayah, Omri, Ami, Dan all highlighted for expertise.
- Jerusalem hotel room had strong smell issues; breakfast decent but accommodation quality fell short of Tel Aviv standard.
- Footsteps of Jesus tour has no storage; pack light or expect nowhere to leave belongings during the day.
- Guides actively pace tours for older travellers' safety and comfort; itinerary delivered as promised, no shortcuts taken.
