Some of the holiest places in the world are concentrated in a very small country, and expectations run high. This itinerary is built to meet them: three nights in Jerusalem, two in the Galilee, and unhurried time at each site rather than a checklist.

Guides are chosen for the group, and the itinerary can be weighted toward Jewish, Christian or archaeological interests on request.

Touring in Israel runs at two levels. Standard departures travel as a small shared group with a hand-picked local guide. Distinguished programs are private throughout, with your own guide and vehicle for the whole journey. Both are quoted rather than sold at a fixed price, so the figure reflects your dates, your party size and the hotels you choose.

Published programs include Jerusalem Stopover (4 nights), Culinary Tour of Israel (6 nights), Israel Highlights (7 nights), Magnificent Israel (8 nights), Best of Israel (9 nights), Pride of Israel (10 nights), Glory of Israel (13 nights) and Ultimate Israel (14 nights). If none of them fits, we will build one around your dates. Custom itineraries are what we do.
