Location of the birth of Jesus Christ
30 minutes
2
Dead Sea
After visiting Bethlehem we descend 1200 meters through the Judean desert to the lowest point on earth into the Jordan valley. On the way we pass the Greek Orthodox Monastery of Saint George, the Inn of Good Samaritan (now a museum of Mosaics) and the oldest city in the World: Jericho. A visit to one of these sites can be included in the itinerary.
At the Dead Sea we will visit a private beach for a unique combination of wild desert nature, the sea and the famous black mud, where you have the opportunity to float.
You can choose sites to add to this itinerary from the What Is Excluded List.
