Explore Bethlehem, Jericho, and the Jordan River in one comprehensive day tour that visits each historic location with a guide.

Generally very nice and enjoyable trip. Palestinian guide was awesome, nice personality I only wish we could spend more time in Bethlehem. Jericho cable was nice with nice view and monastery. Jordan river was nice to see, nobody was doing baptism so it was fast. But it was hot day so we could sit in the shade. We had some extra time so we stopped at Mt Olive for some coffee and more views. Our guide for Israel part was very nice and knowledgeable too. Lunch at the top was nice, buffet tables so we could pick and eat as much as we can.

It was nice. Value for the money, but it doesn't seemed planned when you get to the church and the activity doesn't open for another hour. So you get too see the outside of the milk grotto instead of seeing inside. the tour guide was very knowledgeable, that day. I asked questions on another day and she said hadn't known; it was basic biblical question. So for the money it was good.
