After breakfast, we start our touring to Galilee. We drive along the Mediterranean coast to the ancient Roman capital, Caesarea, built by Herod the Great in 22 BC.

Then we travel to Tel Megiddo, 30 civilizations deep, where we see a Canaanite altar, Ahab’s water tunnel, Solomon’s stables and a panoramic view of the Valley of Armageddon. We continue to the high cliffs of Mount Arbel where we see distant Mt Hermon, the Golan Heights, Tiberias and the Sea of Galilee nearer by. Cliff dwellings here date to the Second Temple period where rebels sought shelter against King Herod.

Continuing north to ancient Tel Dan, where the Dan Tribe emigrated and where Jeroboam crafted a golden calf. See the unearthed city gates, a paved road, and remains of fortifications. See the Banias Springs, the source of the Jordan River and Caesarea Philippi where Peter confessed Christ as Messiah. Returning via the Golan Heights we visit Bethsaida where Jesus healed the blind man and the hometown of Peter, Philip and Andrew.

We visit the Mount of Beatitudes, site of the Sermon on the Mount before traveling to Tzipori, an ancient Roman city built near Nazareth during Jesus’ youth. He may have helped Joseph work there. We drive through Nazareth, the boyhood home of Jesus, and Cana before arriving at Kfar Kedem to experience Jewish everyday life in the Galilee as 2000 years ago.

Continuing down the Jordan Valley, we see Qasr al Yahud, near the site of Jesus’ baptism and Elijah’s ascension in the chariot of fire. We drive up to Jerusalem. Our first stop is at the Mount of Olives for a panoramic view of the city, Mount Moriah and the Dome of the Rock. We visit the Garden of Gethsemane, the Church of All Nations and walk between the ancient olive trees. We proceed via the Knesset to visit the Israel Museum, the Shrine of the Book where the Dead Sea Scroll collection is exhibited and where the amazing model of ancient Jerusalem is on display.

Continue to Ein Gedi, where King David found shelter from the rage of King Saul. Drive along the Dead Sea via Ein Fescha to Masada. Ascend to Masada by cable car to visit these magnificent ruins.

THU, Jun 24 City of David / Gihon Spring / New Excavations (House, lower city Wall, Cistern) / Hezekiah Tunnel/ Siloam Pool / Southern Steps / Western Wall / Rabbinical Tunnels

The City of David is where Jerusalem started. We visit the excavated fortresses and passageways from David’s conquest of the Jebusite city as described in the 2nd book of Samuel. Visit the Gihon Springs – the original water source for Jerusalem, the excavation of a typical Israelite house, the lower city wall and the cistern where Jeremiah was imprisoned. We walk through the Hezekiah Tunnel to the pool of Siloam, the place of Jesus’s miracle in John 9. This tunnel acted as an aqueduct to provide Jerusalem with water during a siege. We drive to the Ophel Garden - a recently excavated archeological site near the southern wall of Temple Mount. We have time to reflect on the southern steps. Jesus would have entered the Temple via these steps. Just a short distance away is the Western Wall, the holiest site of current day Jewish reverence. We walk from the plaza through the Rabbinical tunnels viewing the engineering marvel of the wall construction.
