You’ll begin your journey by flying to Israel and settling in along the Mediterranean coast before heading north through some of the Bible’s most meaningful landscapes, from Caesarea, Megiddo, and Mount Carmel to Nazareth, Cana, and the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Along the way, you’ll stand where Peter proclaimed the gospel, where Elijah confronted the prophets of Baal, and where Jesus lived, taught, performed miracles, and launched his ministry, with moments for worship, reflection, and unforgettable experiences like sailing the Sea of Galilee and visiting the Jordan River baptismal site. The journey continues through the Golan Heights, Magdala, Beit Shean, and on to Jerusalem, where the story deepens as you walk the Mount of Olives, the Palm Sunday Road, the Garden of Gethsemane, the Via Dolorosa, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, while also visiting Bethlehem, the City of David, Hezekiah’s Tunnel, the Garden Tomb, and more. You’ll explore the desert landscapes of Qumran, Ein Gedi, Masada, and the Dead Sea, enjoy time in the Elah Valley and historic Jaffa, and wrap up with a farewell dinner and special visits that bring Scripture vividly to life. You’ll return home with lasting memories, a deeper understanding of the Old and New Testament, and a renewed appreciation for the life and ministry of Jesus.

Level 2: Relaxed
This trip consists of light walking, potentially 1-3 miles per day at most. Most of your time will be spent on the bus, at museums or other sites with frequent stops, or places with similar accommodations. Occasionally there will be uneven paths, however most sites will be wheelchair accessible.
Level 3: Moderately Active (Most Common)
This trip is our most popular and standardized for our most common programs. On average you’ll be walking 3-5 miles per day, with a handful of sites having uneven pathways. Some sites may be wheelchair accessible, however some will not. Some sites may be inaccessible due to stairs or rugged terrain. There will be frequent stops throughout the day to rest and catch your breath.
Level 4: Very Active
This trip is a bit more energetic, featuring the occasional hike or even potentially a dig site. You’ll be walking anywhere between 4-7 miles per day, many sites will have uneven or unpaved walkways. Several sites will be wheelchair accessible, and have wheelchair specific areas, however many sites do contain stairs or other similar obstacles. Travelers are welcome to sit on the bus or meet with the group at the end of certain sites if they do not wish to participate.
Level 5: Energetic
This is our most energetic program! We’ve specifically aimed these programs at students and young adults, as they may consist of 6-10 miles of walking per day, along with hikes and other adventurous obstacles. This tour is more strenuous than most tour programs. While some sites may offer accommodations for wheelchairs or walkers, travelers may want to opt out from certain sites due to uneven terrain and unpaved pathways. Some programs also include early dusk or dawn hikes or walks, which could be difficult for some with impaired vision in darker settings.
