The Monk, the Lion, and the Palace of the Land of Monasteries

At the southern end of the Jordan River, just before it disappears, there is a site that has held sacredness since the arrival of the Israelites in the Land after the wilderness journey. A visit to Qasr al-Yahud and the Land of Monasteries is a fascinating and breathtaking experience.

Following the Nabataean cities

Far away in the Negev lie the spectacular remains of lesser-known Nabatean cities - Shivta and Nitzana. Here we will tell the story of the desert rulers who transformed the landscape, discover how they practiced agriculture in a place where there is no water, and about foreign adventurers, Turks, and spy agents.

Descending Maale Adumim

The dramatic road from Jerusalem to Jericho was throughout history almost the only road for movement in this area and thus brought together a number of fascinating sites that were encountered on the tour, such as the site of the Good Samaritan, Nabi Musa, and more. The tour continues down through the Minus 430 Gallery on the shores of the Dead Sea and ends at the National Park at Qumran.
