An Israel tour to the Holy Land is a bucket-list item for many travellers and here at Egypt Uncovered, we've put together some of the most experiential Israel tour packages, both private and group tours, that will leave you with life-long memories.
Israel is home to some of the oldest religious and historic sites on the planet. Travellers from all over the globe flock to Israel every year to indulge in its rich culture, beautiful scenery and diverse history.
Our Israel tours will take you through the ancient alleyways of Jerusalem, from one historical site to the next. You'll even get a chance to swim - or should we say float - in the extremely salty and mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea, which is earth's lowest point on land.
We'll take you to Bethlehem - the birthplace of Jesus Christ - as well as Nazareth - the place where he grew up. Our Israel tour packages also include visits to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Wailing Wall, the ruined fortress at Masada, the Sea of Galilee and more.
We'll also visit the modern city of Tel Aviv, well-known for its vibrant nightlife and idyllic beachfront.
There's so much to explore in the Holy Land and our Israel tours - led by English-speaking guides - tick all the boxes. If you would like to book a group tour or private tailor-made holiday to Israel, contact us today and one of our friendly travel consultants will gladly assist you.
