Jerusalem – Old City - Sedar
Today you’ll head back in time…after another super-fresh, inspiring breakfast we’ll begin our tour in the Rabbinical tunnel (subject to confirmation). This is an exciting area of discovery in the heart of ancient Jerusalem and home to many of the most impressive finds of recent years. Either way we’ll reunite at the Southern Wall Archaeological Park / Davidson Centre and experience a fascinating presentation describing the Temple Mount and life as it was two millennia ago. Winding our way through the Southern Wall Excavations, we’ll arrive at the Kotel – the Western Wall, Judaism’s holiest site and finish the day’s adventure.

Jerusalem- New City
After another sumptuous breakfast we’ll make the short drive to Mt. Scopus, site of Ammunition Hill, and learn of the site’s epic battle between Israeli paratroopers and Jordanian legionnaires during the Six Day War – a battle resulting in the reunification of Jerusalem in 1967. On to Yad Vashem, Israel’s national memorial and Museum of the Holocaust. We’ll stop in the Grove of the Righteous among the Nations, continue to the Children’s Memorial, take part in a special "Yizkor" (memorial service) in Bikat Ha Kehilot (The Valley of Communities) and conclude our visit with the celebrated and evocative museum. A special programme will be provided for children (accompanied by one parent). Leaving Yad Vashem, we’ll stop at Mt Herzl, and visit the final resting place of the founders of modern day Israel and those of young men who paid the ultimate price to make the dream a reality. The rest of the day we’ll celebrate the vital city Jerusalem has become. A visit to Machane Yehuda Market - strolling the alleys of the market, taking in incredible scents -- mounds of spices, fruit and nuts, tasting the halva, ice cream, fruit drinks – all at its peak and fresh as a morning’s drive -- a trip to the supermarket back home will never seem the again. The rest of the afternoon is yours to enjoy as you wish. |

Day 6:

Jerusalem – Bar Mitzvah Masada
The day is here and we’ve made sure that it’s everything you’ve hoped for and more. Before dawn, you’ll board a cable car and ascend the face of Masada to witness one of the most glorious sunrises imaginable – the ruins around you seem almost to glow…. The Bar Mitzvah & Bat Mitzvah service will take place in a special area, shaded and looking out over the great expanse of desert. Your child holds center stage and the setting could not be more appropriate. Following the service, after the photos, after the hugs, take time to wander the site – from the palace of Herod, the early synagogue and the remains of the Roman siege camps, this is a marvelous chance to reflect on our shared history. Departing Masada, it’s time to play – back to the hotel for a refreshing snack and a swim, and then we’re off to Ein Gedi, a stunning oasis drawing a wide variety of wildlife to its refreshing pools and falls. From here we’ll head back to Jerusalem. As we approach the city, we’ll stop at a beautiful overlook and celebrate both the ancient and the new Jerusalem with a lovely "Shehechiyanu" ceremony. Tonight you will enjoy the inspiring Sound & Light Show at the Citadel Museum. Overnight in Jerusalem. |

Tel Aviv
Today our journey through the Golan starts with a blast…. We’ll start out at Metula shooting range to test our shooting skills –this is great fun for all and a highlight of the trip. Following this, we’ve arranged for a rare treat – subject to the political situation, we’ll visit an Army Base, speak with the soldiers who defend the northern borders and observe the life of an active combat unit. From this once-in-a-lifetime experience we’ll head down from the heights of the Golan, taking in spectacular views of the area as we make our way to Tel Dan. A town that has seen many different occupants of the course of 6000 years, its setting in the lush valley supplied by the Dan River makes it one of the loveliest to visit in North. Tonight we’ll enjoy a traditional Israeli BBQ dinner followed by an exciting Jeep tour beginning in the twilight hour traveling into the darkness. Travel in open jeeps, hear the sounds of the night and observe the active wildlife. Return exhilarated from the ride, and cosy around a bonfire “Kumzits” to roast some marshmallows while we star gaze into the glorious Israeli skies. Overnight at the Kibbutz. |

Herod’s “Dream by the Sea”, for tour of the rich remains spanning Roman to Islamic: Crusader walls, a Roman hippodrome, remains of Herod’s palace itself – all will be brought to life in a brand new multi-media show dedicated to the events and personalities who shaped this sea-side wonder. Our next stop is Safed: the ancient city that was home to the mystics of the Kabala. Wandering the twisting alleyways, we’ll encounter tiny, historic synagogues and have an opportunity to visit the galleries of Safed’s celebrated artists’ colony.
we drive to Haifa where we will see the splendid Baha’i Gardens and pass through a nearby Druze Village where we will learn about these unique Israelis and their way of life. Tonight will enjoy a holiday dinner at the Carlton hotel.
