• Bethlehem - Bethlehem is renowned as the birthplace of Christ over 2,000 years ago. The tour of Bethlehem includes a stop at Manger Square, where visitors can explore the Church of the Nativity. This church houses the Grotto of the Nativity, the site of Jesus’ birth, and features the original 4th-century mosaic. The church is filled with remarkable features, and in the Holy Grotto, a silver star marks the exact location of Christ’s birth.

The tour continues to the Church of St. Catherine, where visitors can descend into an ancient cave where St. Jerome translated the Hebrew Bible into Latin. The journey back to Jerusalem passes by Shepherds Field, where shepherds famously watched their flocks on Christmas Eve.

• Jericho - Traveling through the Judean Desert past Wadi Kelt, the tour offers a view of the 5th-century Monastery of St. George perched on the cliffs. A brief stop is made at the “sea level” sign before descending to Jericho. In the Old Testament, the walls of Jericho fell as Joshua led his army around them in God’s name. In the New Testament, Zacchaeus, the tax collector, climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see Jesus entering Jericho. The tour includes a visit to the famous sycamore tree and a view of Mount Temptation, where Jesus spent 40 days in the wilderness. The tour also visits Qasr al-Yahud on the Jordan River, where John baptized Jesus. This site is accessible to visitors wishing to be baptized and is believed to be where the Israelites crossed into the Promised Land. The tour of Bethlehem, Jericho, and Qasr al-Yahud offers an inspiring and spiritually enriching experience.
