Bethlehem Tour from Jerusalem

A special way to experience the city of the birth of Jesus awaits you on our Bethlehem tour. Explore the birthplace of Jesus and discover the historical and spiritual significance of its iconic sites. From the renowned Church of the Nativity to the serene Franciscan Grotto of Lady Mary and the barrier wall, this journey to Bethlehem offers a unique opportunity to delve into the city’s rich history and biblical background. With logistics taken care of, you can fully absorb the spiritual sites and connect with the profound legacy of the remarkable city of Bethlehem.

Our first stop is the Church of the Nativity, one of the oldest churches in the world and the birthplace of Jesus. Witness the chapels of the Catholic, Armenian, and Greek Orthodox Christians within this grand and historically significant church.

Next, we visit the Franciscan Grotto of Lady Mary, also known as the ‘Milk Grotto.’ This underground cave, with a Franciscan chapel above it, is believed to be where Mary, Joseph, and Jesus sought refuge from King Herod before their journey to Egypt.

At our last stop, we invite you to discover the Walled Off Hotel, a unique establishment created by British street artist Banksy, positioned close to the barrier wall separating Israel and the Palestinian West Bank. You will have some free time to independently explore the wall and the hotel. Do note that the hotel entrance fee is 20 NIS

With our tour, you’ll have the best opportunity to immerse yourself in the sacred city of Bethlehem.
