The tour begins at the Mount of Olives with a breathtaking panoramic view over Jerusalem. Then we continue on to the Byzantine Cardo, an ancient main road that runs through the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem. We'll take a look at the Wailing Wall (Kotel) and then follow the sacred route Jesus took carrying his cross along the Way of Sorrows (Via Dolorosa). We stop at several of the Stations of the Cross and reach the Basilica of the Holy Sepulcher where Jesus was crucified and where his burial tomb is located. We stroll through the Christian and Muslim quarters' bazaars, then leave Jerusalem and make our way to Bethlehem.
Our primary focus in Bethlehem is the Church of the Nativity where Jesus was born and we also visit Saint Catherine Church, the Milk Grotto where Mary nursed baby Jesus, and Shepherds Fields where "Shepherds watched their flocks by night…"
