Jerusalem

The world’s most famous historic city, Jerusalem is a spiritual centre for the three great monotheistic faiths, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Your first glimpse of its huge walls and diverse, often ancient architecture will leave you speechless.

Petra

Petra, in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, is a legendary archaeological site renowned for its massive rock-cut architecture. Built about two thousand years ago by the Nabataeans, it is a monumental city that has fired the imagination of tourists ever since it was introduced to the West in 1812 by an explorer.

Itinerary

Day One
Depart from your hotel at around 9.30pm (the night before: tbc) and transfer to the Israeli border. There is an optional short stop at the Dead Sea for swimming, weather permitting. Then we drive to Jerusalem, starting with a panoramic view of the city from the Mount of Olives. We then visit the holy sites of the three monotheistic religions represented in Jerusalem. The tour finishes at approximately 6.30pm. We stay the night either in a 3 star hotel in Eilat or Aqaba.
