Delight Experience of One of the World’s Most Ancient Cities With Jerusalem Tours
When you travel across Europe, the USA or even Asia, one city is so much like the other that
there is a sense of déjà vu. However, when you visit Jerusalem, you visit hallowed land, a city
that has been alive and thriving since over 5000 years.
Unique to Jerusalem is the fact that it is considered a holy city by the Jews, Muslims and
Christians. It is the Holy City of the World. When you visit Jerusalem, you stand on an ancient
ground and have not just a fantastic tour experience, but also a soul-fulfilling pilgrimage of sorts.
Jerusalem has grown, but retains its heart, the old city, where the main attractions lie as you will
discover when you join tours to Jerusalem.
One of the better ways to start your one day tour of this city with soul and spirituality is to view
it in the morning light from atop the Mount of Olives. Most popular tours to Jerusalem have a
common itinerary where they take you to the heart of Jerusalem, the old city. Start with a visit to
the incomparable Church of Mary Magdalena, Church of the Holy Sepulcher and the Church of
Nations. The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Old City retains traces of previous civilizations.
Just outside the Dung Gate you may spot relics that are said to date back to the rule of David.
The Lion’s Gate area is predominantly Muslim. Where the Muslim Quarter ends the Christian
Quarter starts and covers the area from the New Gate to the Western Wall and up to the
Damascus Gate. The Zion Gate is the starting point of the Jewish Quarter, an area you will love
to explore and one that has been continuously inhabited by Jews since the eighth century.
Jerusalem is a melting pot of cultures, and identities as you will find if you traverse the various
quarters and come upon the Armenian quarter, the Turkish quarter, the Jewish quarter and others,
but the most interesting spot is the Wailing Wall. A visit to the old city naturally includes
sampling authentic food at any of the numerous traditional restaurants dotting the quarters. From
there it is better to take a drive to Bethlehem for a visit to the Church of Nativity if you like or
just lounge about.
After sampling history and getting a taste of heritage it is time for some fun. Head towards Eilat
where you get the chance to cruise in a glass-bottom boat and admire the colorful marine life
without wetting your feet. If you want to dive in then you are welcome to snorkel alongside the
Coral Island or go parasailing. There is no end to the number of diversions at Eilat such as
driving around in a dune buggy. A dune buggy is no match for a camel ride when it comes to
giving you the feeling of the up and down motion you would get on a ship, so do not miss it. If
you would rather fly like a bird it is possible here in Eilat, the Eden of recreational activities. Just
join tours to Jerusalem to get a dose of heritage and fun in the same package.
