Holy City of Jerusalem and Bethlehem Private Tour

About this experience

The best way to experience the holy city of Jerusalem is with a private tour, which will allow you to understand its complexity, learn about its rich history, experience the archeology and feel the culture. I love guiding, I love Jerusalem and the land of Israel and nothing makes me happier than to share this love with others. I present very rich and informative guidance while presenting the information in a very vivid manner. This tour starts with a unique visit to Bethlehem and the Nativity Church. That way we follow Jesus in the most important stations of his life, starting at the place of his birth, then the mount of Olives and Gethsemane, followed by the stations of the Cross, and finally the Holy Sepulchre - the site of the crucifixion, burial and resurrection!

The tours are guided by Daniel or by his handpicked partners - all professional tour guides, fluent in English with licensed touristic vehicles.

Itinerary and highlights

The most beautiful viewpoint of Jerusalem. It is the perfect place to learn about the history of the city as well as the different traditions of the main religions.

Walk inside the walls of the Old City and discover its ancient history while passing through all its 4 quarters, visiting the holiest sites in the world in "the most explosive place on earth" - hence understanding the complexity of Jerusalem, Israel, and the middle east through this one square kilometer.

The wailing wall, the holiest place for all Jews (is it?). Why is this wall holy? and which traditions are related to it?

The stations of the cross

The holiest site in the world for almost all of all the Christian denominations. Where Jesus was crucified, buried and resurrected Religion, history, and archeology merge inside the old walls of the Church.
Including answers to the riddles:
"Who moved my ladder?"
and
"How many people does it take to replace a lightbulb in that holy site?"

The Church of the Nativity is one of the oldest working churches in existence today. The first Church was built by the Roman Emperor Constantine in the 4th century AD, over the grotto where Mary gave birth to Jesus.
Inside the grotto of the Nativity Church there are fourteen point silver stars that mark the exact spot of Jesus’ birth. An inscription on the star states: Hic de Virgin Maria Jesus Christus Natus Est – meaning “Here Jesus Christ was born to the Virgin Mary.”
