From cultural tours exploring ancient biblical sites and archaeological wonders to beach breaks on the shores of soothing waters, Israel and Jordan offer a treasure trove of new experiences.
Cultural city breaks
Our favourite experiences in Israel and Jordan lie in their remarkable cities. Tel Aviv is as eclectic and enchanting as it is liberal and laid-back; visit the ancient-stone old town, discover the world’s largest collection of Bauhaus buildings and revel in non-stop nightlife. Jerusalem is one of the most fabled cities on Earth and full of history dating back over 5000 years. Explore the Jewish, Christian, Muslim and Armenian Quarters in the fascinating Old City, visit Temple Mount and browse mystical markets. You can also visit one of the New Seven Wonders of the World – the rose-red city of Petra – from our hotels in Aqaba.
Beach holidays
Our beach holidays in Israel and Jordan focus on the four seas: Red Sea, Dead Sea, Mediterranean Sea and the Sea of Galilee. With six miles of shoreline and marine life-rich waters, Eilat is popular with divers, snorkellers and sun seekers, while travellers head to the Dead Sea to float in its buoyant water at the lowest point on Earth. Aqaba is Jordan’s only coastal city and its Red Sea beach resorts like Tala Bay are great for snorkelling. Our range of beach accommodation includes large family-friendly hotels and luxury spa resorts.
Escorted small group tours
Our relaxed small group tours with local tour leaders and quality accommodation offer a more sociable way to experience a destination. We’ve crafted a Highlights of Israel tour that takes you on a journey to diverse cities, religious sites and the shores of the famously saline Dead Sea, and a Highlights of Jordan tour which is a great way to take in Jordan’s staggering relics and ruins.
Multi-centres
Israel is a destination where you’ll want to explore more than one region. It’s easy to hop between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem for an insightful twin-city holiday, or add on the Dead Sea for a relaxing end to your trip.

Dead Sea Relaxation
Bathe in the world-famous Dead Sea’s magical waters on a day trip, available from Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, which are both around two hours’ drive from Israel’s and Jordan’s shared natural attraction. Found at the lowest point on earth, the water in the Dead Sea is so salty that you’ll float buoyantly at the surface. Your skin will feel noticeably smoother, thanks to the softening mud that bathers slather on their skin before taking a dip. The salt is packed with minerals and is known for its antiseptic and pain-relieving qualities. You’ll get the chance to buy some Dead Sea products at a cosmetics shop and take some of this natural wonder home with you. We recommend bringing swimwear, a towel, hat and sunscreen.
Bethlehem & Jericho
Visit the birthplace of Jesus and one of the world’s oldest cities. Begin your tour by heading through the Judean Desert, east of Jerusalem, and visit the site of a biblical parable, The Inn of the Good Samaritan – this site was a hostel along the ancient road of Jerusalem to Jericho, with remains from the Roman to Ottoman periods. You’ll continue to Jericho, a Palestinian territory and the oldest city in the world. Stop by the sycamore tree of the biblical tax collector Zacchaeus before seeing the Mount of Temptation. Explore Tel Jericho, a UNESCO-nominated archaeological site in the West Bank where settlements dating back to 10,000BC have been discovered (cable car not included here). The last leg of your tour is in the city of Bethlehem, also in the West Bank and famous for being the birthplace of Jesus. Walk through the central Manger Square to the Church of the Nativity, the oldest major church in the Holy Land area. Visit the Catholic Chapel of the Milk Grotto, home to a series of caves hollowed out of soft white rock, and the Shepherds’ Field, the site of the angels’ annunciation to the shepherds about the birth of Jesus. Browse a local souvenir shop before making the journey back to your hotel.
Bethlehem City Tour
See Bethlehem’s major sights on this half-day tour, beginning at Manger Square where you’ll visit the Church of the Nativity – the oldest church in the Holy Land and the entry point to one of the most significant biblical sites. Admire the ancient limestone columns and mosaic floors before heading down into the Grotto of the Nativity, the cave where a 14-point silver star marks the spot where Jesus is believed to have been born. Next, visit the Chapel of the Milk Grotto, where the stones are said to have turned white when the Virgin Mary spilt a drop of milk while nursing the baby Jesus; and Shepherd’s Field, where an angel announced Jesus’s birth. Stop by a shop for souvenirs of your trip before returning to Jerusalem.
Biblical Highlights of the Galilee
Begin your tour of important biblical landmark with a coastal drive as you make your way to Jesus’ childhood home, Nazareth. On your city tour, you’ll see the Basilica of the Annunciation and the Church of St. Joseph, both believed to be built on sites relating to Mary and Joseph. Drive to Tiberias, one of Judaism’s four holy cities, and along the Sea of Galilee to Capernaum where Jesus taught and peformed many miracles. Continue to the Church of Multiplication of the Fish and Loaves in Tabgha before ending your tour at Yardenit, where Jesus was thought to be baptised.
Jerusalem City Tour
This half-day tour is an excellent introduction to some of Jerusalem’s key sights. You’ll start by driving up to the Mount of Olives next to the Old City for panoramic views, before stopping at Mount Zion to explore a trio of religious sites: King David’s Tomb, the Cenacle (room of the Last Supper) and the Dormition Abbey – a German-built abbey with a striking clock tower, domed roof and encircling towers. Head into the Old City and pass through the Armenian and Jewish Quarters en route to the recently restored Cardo, or Roman road. Stop off at the Western Wall (also known as the Wailing Wall) before continuing to the Christian Quarter where you’ll be able to follow the Via Dolorosa (the route Jesus had to take carrying the cross) and visit the Church of the Holy Sepulchre – the site of his crucifixion and burial.
Masada & Dead Sea
Journey to the lowest place on earth and explore an ancient desert fortress. Depart from Tel Aviv and travel via Israel’s rolling Judean Hills to the Dead Sea – visit a cosmetics shop here before driving along the shoreline to Masada. This historic fortress is in Israel’s Judean Desert, on a huge plateau overlooking the Dead Sea. Head up the mountain by cable car for a tour of the fortress, built by King Herod around 30BC and the place where the Zealots of the 1st Century stood against the Romans – remains include the palace, walls, synagogue, cisterns and Roman baths with mosaic floors. Come down by cable car and head back to the Dead Sea, where you’ll be able to spend a bit of time floating in the world’s saltiest spot and bathing in enriching mineral mud, believed to have therapeutic properties.
