Upon arrival in Tel Aviv, you will be met by a Ya'lla Tours USA's representative and transferred to your hotel for overnight.
Travel from Tel Aviv to the desert fortress of Masada, the legendary stronghold built by King Herod over 2,000 years ago. Ascend by cable car to explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site – wander through the ruins of Herod’s lavish palaces, the ancient synagogue, Roman bathhouse, and massive cisterns that sustained life here. Hear the gripping story of the Jewish rebels who made their final stand against the Romans. Descend to the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth, where the mineral-rich, salty waters make floating effortless. Cover yourself with black mud – nature’s ultimate spa treatment – and soak in the surreal desert surroundings. Pass by the oasis of Ein Gedi, known since biblical times for its springs and wildlife, before ascending through the Judean mountains to Jerusalem.
Check in to your hotel for overnight.
Begin at Yad Vashem, Israel’s national memorial to the victims of the Holocaust. Through poignant exhibits, survivor testimonies, and powerful art, the museum tells the story of loss, resilience, and remembrance. Continue to Ein Karem, a picturesque hillside village of winding lanes and stone houses, revered in Christian tradition as the birthplace of John the Baptist. Travel to Bethlehem, sacred to Christians as the birthplace of Jesus.* Step into the Church of the Nativity, one of the oldest continuously operating churches in the world, and stand in Manger Square – the heart of Bethlehem’s spiritual life.
Return to Jerusalem for the Israel Museum, home to the Shrine of the Book, where the Dead Sea Scrolls – some of the oldest biblical manuscripts – are preserved. Explore the remarkable scale model of Jerusalem as it looked during the Second Temple period.
Return to your hotel for overnight.
*Subject to security clearance.

Start your day atop the Mount of Olives, where a breathtaking panoramic view stretches over the Holy City, sacred to the world’s three great religions – Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. From here, you’ll see the golden Dome of the Rock, church spires, and the timeless stone walls of the Old City. Descend to the peaceful Garden of Gethsemane, with its gnarled olive trees said to date back centuries, recalling the night Jesus was betrayed. Continue to Mount Zion, home to the traditional Tomb of King David and the Room of the Last Supper, steeped in biblical history. Enter the Old City of Jerusalem, where faith and history intertwine. Stand before the Western Wall, Judaism’s most sacred prayer site, gaze toward the Temple Mount, and follow the Via Dolorosa to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, believed to house both Golgotha and the Tomb of the Resurrection. Conclude your day at Mahane Yehuda Market, the beating heart of modern Jerusalem. Here, spice stalls, bakeries, coffee shops, and street food vendors create a sensory feast, and the city’s vibrant mix of cultures comes to life at the largest open market in Israel.
Return to your hotel for overnight.
You will be transferred to the airport for your
departure flight.

Travel Tips
The climate of Israel is warm and sunny for most of the year. Winters are short but can be cold and rainy. Rainfall is mostly limited to between November and April.
In general, Jerusalem is cooler than Tel Aviv. The hottest areas are those below sea level - the Jordan Valley, the shores of the Sea of Galilee, the Dead Sea and
the areas around Eilat.
May-October is the ideal time to visit Israel.
A current passport, valid for at least six months from your scheduled return date, is the only documentation required of American citizens to enter Israel. If planning to visit any Arab or Muslim states, excluding Egypt and
Jordan, you can request that the Immigration authorities stamp a piece of paper rather than your passport.
No immunizations are necessary to visit Israel.
Casual, comfortable clothing is fine for touring. Skirts and slacks or jeans are okay anywhere. In the winter, you’ll need a medium weight coat and a cardigan or pullover should be packed for possibly chilly summer evenings. Pack things you can layer. Midday and afternoon can be considerably warmer than mornings and evenings.
Religious sites are not open to anyone dressed immodestly; men and women must cover their legs and shoulders. Arms must be covered in all mosques
and temples. Men must cover their heads in Jewish places of worship.
Comfortable, sturdy walking shoes are a must. Bring an old pair of sneakers or water shoes for walking
on the rocky sea bed of the Dead Sea.
Bring sunglasses and a sun hat.
The currency of Israel is the New Shekel and it is divided into 100 Argorot. Money can be changed at banks and in hotels. Many Israelis will talk in terms of American dollars when quoting prices. Most major credit cards are accepted in Israel.
The electric current is 110-240 volts. Wall plugs are the round, two pronged European type
