Bethlehem and Jericho Holy Land - Tour from Tel Aviv

Travel to Bethlehem to see Rachel’s tomb and the ancient Church of the Nativity containing the grotto where Jesus is believed to have been born. See the fields where the shepherds are thought to have seen the angel and the Star that foretold the birth of Christ.

Then visit venerable and historic Jericho, the world’s oldest and lowest city, nestling in a verdant oasis. Try to visualize the Battle of Jericho when the ‘walls came tumbling down’ after Joshua’s army walked around the city blowing their trumpets. You will see the tree reputed to be the one the diminutive tax collector Zacchaeus climbed to get a better view of Jesus. And you will visit the Mount of Jericho where around 25 ancient settlements have been discovered.

This moving and inspiring tour shows you the ancient places that have nurtured so many aspects of the modern world’s religions and cultures
