Jerusalem, the capital and
biggest city of Israel, is also one of the oldest cities in the world. The city,
also known as the "city of gold", is sacred to three of the world's main
religions. The walled Old City is divided into four quarters: Armenian,
Christian, Jewish, and Muslim, and is home to the Temple Mosque, the Western
Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, and the Dome of the Rock.
Your trip starts in the early morning, departing from Dahab
around 01:00 hrs towards Taba. You will cross the border driving along Arava
Valley towards the Dead Sea, where we stop for a short break. It will be
possible to take a short dip in the Dead Sea.
Then, we continue to Jerusalem, starting the tour with a
panoramic view from the Mount of Olives. You will visit the holy sites of the
three monotheistic religions, starting with the Wailing Wall, which represents
the last remnants of the Jewish Temple, destroyed by the Romans.
We reach the Temple Mount, home to the Dome of the Rock. We
continue through the Arab market to the Via Dolorosa (Jesus’ Way of Suffering),
which leads us to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, where according to Christian
tradition, Jesus was crucified and buried.
The tour will finish around 18:30 (6:30 pm). We drive through the
