Travel through southern Israel, crossing the Judean Hills and passing the historic Inn of the Good Samaritan. Pause at sea level for an unforgettable photo opportunity before descending to the world-famous Dead Sea. Our first destination is Masada, where a scenic cable-car ride takes us to the summit of the plateau to explore the remains of Herod’s ancient fortress, including royal palaces and a Roman bathhouse dating back over 2,000 years. Continuing on, we pass the lush desert oasis of Ein Gedi and the archaeological site of Qumran, where the Dead Sea Scrolls were uncovered. The day concludes with relaxing time at a Dead Sea beach, allowing you to float effortlessly in the mineral-rich waters and enjoy a rejuvenating natural mud treatment beneath the sun.
