Overview

Celebrate Palm Sunday in Jerusalem, and attend mass at a church in Bethpage before joining the famous procession along the Via Dolorosa pilgrimage route.

Walk from the Mount of Olives through Kidron Valley and into Jerusalem’s Old City, passing must-see biblical landmarks such as the Garden of Gethsemane, Lion’s Gate and more.
