About this experience
Begin your full-day Jerusalem tour with a breathtaking panoramic view of the city’s skyline from the Mount of Scopus.
Enter the Old City through the 500-year-old walls via Zion Gate and walk into the Armenian Quarter. In the Jewish Quarter, explore the Byzantine-era Cardo and pause at the sacred Western Wall. From there, follow the path believed to trace Jesus’ footsteps along the Via Dolorosa, leading to the magnificent Church of the Holy Sepulchre, an ornate 4th-century shrine that preserves the site of the crucifixion, Christ’s tomb, and many treasured relics. Continue through the vibrant Old City bazaar.
Next, visit the serene Garden of Gethsemane and the Church of All Nations, then view the Kidron Valley with its centuries-old monumental Jewish tombs. Pass by the Dormition Church on Mount Zion and conclude with visits to the Room of the Last Supper and King David’s Tomb
Note: Mon & Thu (except Jewish holidays): Holocaust Museum replaces Gethsemane and Mt. Zion sites.
