Israel Jerusalem

Holy Land

We have a variety of sample itineraries & additional day tour options in the tour finder of our website that will serve as a great framework to get your planning started. You can also add additional stops to expand your experience. For instance, you may want to visit some of the other meaningful sites from the New Testament or the Old Testament+ (see below).

Lampadas - hanging oil lamps over the Anointing Stone - Church of the Holy Sepulcher

Traditional Sites

Traveling through Israel is a life-changing experience, unlike any other destination. It's more than archeology, history, & beautiful scenery. Here, Christians can fulfill their life-long dreams to walk in the steps of Jesus – sailing on a fishing boat in the Sea of Galilee, standing on the very steps where Jesus preached at the Temple, & entering Jerusalem like the pilgrims did in Jesus' time.

Hands-On Experiences

In addition to the traditional sites, groups can also incorporate a variety of interactive components to make your trip the ultimate once-in-a-lifetime experience. Among your options to personalize your time in Israel are:

Cuisine

Shuk & Cook in Jerusalem: Your culinary experience will include both cooking & tasting, & is a great way to experience the variety & vibrancy of Israeli culture.

Volunteer

Food for the Hungry: Volunteer with a local food distribution project in Jerusalem by assembling food packages for less fortunate families.

Archeology

Archeological Dig on the Temple Mount: Sift through actual remains from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, in search of fascinating artifacts from the Second Temple Period.

Culture

Masada Opera Festival: Enjoy a classic opera & amazing pyrotechnics in an epic setting - the ancient Masada fortress.

Adventure

Makhtesh Ramon Crater Adventure: Enjoy awe-inspiring views of the crater. Exciting activities include 4x4 vehicle tours & rappelling.

Ephesus Library in Turkey

New Testament: Turkey, Greece & Italy

You may be familiar with the important role Turkey, Greece & Italy have played in history, but now discover first-hand the lands where the earliest pages of Christianity were written. Take a trip back in time & explore the sites where the gentiles first heard the Good News.

Roman Forum

Footsteps of Paul

Retrace the footsteps of Paul – through Athens, Philippi, Pergamon, Ephesus, Corinth & Rome – where he spread the word of his own vision of the risen Christ. You will follow Paul along his divine journey, just as it's described in the books of Acts through Revelations.

Athens Acropolis in Greece

Seven Churches of Revelation

This pilgrimage will take you on a journey across Turkey to see the Seven Churches of Asia to whom John addressed his letter of prophetic visions. Travel on to Patmos Island, Greece to witness the cave where John the Evangelist actually wrote the Book of Revelation. Then, enjoy the beauty of the Mediterranean in Athens, Plaka, Corinth & Rhodes, as you walk where the apostles themselves fulfilled the Christian mission. Your pilgrimage can even lead you back to Israel, where Jesus began his ministry.

Cruise ship

Cruises

Marvel at God's creation as you travel through the Bible lands from the comfort of a cruise ship. On the ship, you'll enjoy Christian music, lectures & entertainment. While on shore, participate in inspirational excursions to ancient sites across Europe.

The Treasury of Petra

Old Testament +

For many, discussions of the Bible lands typically evoke images of Israel & its prominent religious landmarks. Yet, its neighbors, Jordan & Egypt, are also steeped in rich Christian history. Tours to these areas can be combined with Holy Land or Footsteps pilgrimages or stand on their own for a more in-depth study.

Mount Nebo

In Jordan

This area echoes with the stories of Lot, Moses, John the Baptist, Paul & Jesus (& many others). Pilgrims can bring these stories to life by visiting the temple at Pella – the ancient site of Penuel, named by Jacob in Genesis; climbing Mt. Nebo, as Moses did; & exploring the cave where Lot found refuge with his daughters. Along the banks of the Jordan River, witness - or choose to be baptized - where John baptized Jesus. Then, explore the wilderness of Bethany where Jesus faced temptation for 40-days & the site of the fortified palace in Machaerus where John the Baptist was imprisoned & martyred.

Pyramids of Egypt

In Egypt

Egypt is one of the most frequently mentioned places in the Bible, found in references from Genesis through the Gospels. Here, you can marvel at the Pyramids that stood during the times of Abraham, Moses & the Holy Family's escape from Herod. Travel to Egypt's Sinai Peninsula to touch the plant said to be descended from the Burning Bush. While there, view, or even scale, Mt. Sinai - where Moses received the Ten Commandments. From the top, you can also take in the beauty of the Red Sea.
