Best of the West Bank Tour from Tel Aviv
Your tour begins with pickup from the lobby of the Abraham Hostel Tel Aviv, where you’ll board an air-conditioned vehicle and travel through the Jerusalem Hills to your first stop—the Jordan River Baptismal Site (Yardenit). The historic location and site upon which John the Baptist baptized Jesus, is one of the most significant Christian landmarks in the world. Then, continue to the ruins of the ancient Palestinian city of Jericho, reputedly established more than 9,000 years ago. Admire the 6th-century Synagogue Mosiac-Floor and the ornate Hisham’s Palace before proceeding to Ramallah, the modern administrative center of Palestine. Wander the bustling streets of Ramallah, visiting the tomb of Yasser Arafat before arriving in Bethlehem, arguably the most significant Christian site in the world. Visit the Church of the Nativity and the separation wall on which Palestinian people express political opinions through art. Your tour concludes with drop-off at your original departure point.
