Offered in: German and 6 more

The best way to experience the holy city of Jerusalem is with a private tour, which will allow you to understand its complexity, learn about its rich history, experience the archeology and feel the culture. I love guiding, I love Jerusalem and the land of Israel and nothing makes me happier than to share this love with others. I present very rich and informative guidance while presenting the information in a very vivid manner. This tour starts with a unique visit to Bethlehem and the Nativity Church. That way we follow Jesus in the most important stations of his life, starting at the place of his birth, then the mount of Olives and Gethsemane, followed by the stations of the Cross, and finally the Holy Sepulchre - the site of the crucifixion, burial and resurrection!

The tours are guided by Daniel or by his handpicked partners - all professional tour guides, fluent in English with licensed touristic vehicles.

    Church of the Nativity

    The Church of the Nativity is one of the oldest working churches in existence today. The first Church was built by the Roman Emperor Constantine in the 4th century AD, over the grotto where Mary gave birth to Jesus. Inside the grotto of the Nativity Church there are fourteen point silver stars that mark the exact spot of Jesus’ birth. An inscription on the star states: Hic de Virgin Maria Jesus Christus Natus Est – meaning “Here Jesus Christ was born to the Virgin Mary.”
