Israel tours and holidays
The Holy Land scarcely needs an introduction. Israel’s collection of biblical sites is peerless and extraordinary. Its religious significance to three of the world’s great faiths and four billion people is unmatched. Its wonders, such as the Dead Sea, have no equivalent elsewhere. It is, by turns, fascinating, poignant and inspiring. Our Israel tours will take you to the gleaming domes and stones of Jerusalem, to Biblical and historical sites, and to the healing waters of the Dead Sea.
Our Israel holiday begins in Tel Aviv, before we journey north to Galilee, then south for a trip to Jerusalem. Along the way, we’ll visit a traditional Kibbutz, explore Nazareth and Bethlehem, and see the Western Wall and Via Dolorosa. We'll also take in incredible views over the Judean Desert from the mountain of Masada.
