Day 3
This morning after breakfast we visit Herodian just outside of Bethlehem. Perched atop a unique man-made hill, Herodian Park is not just a historical site; it’s a thrilling climb to the pinnacle of ancient innovation. Created by the visionary King Herod, this architectural marvel combines a royal fortress with a lavish palace and is the burial site of King Herod. Continue to Shepherds Field in Bethlehem. The Shepherds' Fields, located in the town of Beit Sahour, are remembered as the spot where the shepherds first saw the nativity star. Today, two chapels (Greek Orthodox and Catholic) built a short distance from each other mark possible sites of this biblical story. Drive to the Judean desert outside of Jerusalem and hike Wadi Kelt, a stunning, fertile canyon in the Judean Desert, flowing from Jerusalem eastward through a deep gorge to the Jordan River, famous for its perennial stream (Nahal Prat/Pharan), ancient aqueducts, and the cliff-hanging St. George's Monastery, a major pilgrimage site with historical significance as the "Valley of the Shadow of Death" in the Bible. Drive to Qasr El-Yahud on the Jordan River and baptismal site.
Return to Jerusalem and visit the Model of Jerusalem depicting the time of Jesus.

Day 4
This morning we start the day exploring the excavations in the City of David to see remains of Jerusalem from the time of King David. (2 Samuel 5:6-10). Walk through Hezekiah’s Tunnel (2 Kings 20:20) to the Pool of Siloam (John 9:1-11). Enter the Old City to visit the Southern Wall Archaeological Park where you will stand on the very same steps that Jesus walked on, when he went in and out of the Temple. We visit the Western Wall the last remnant of the retaining wall of the Second Temple Mount, a uniquely holy site in Judaism, sacred for prayer and pilgrimage where people place prayer notes in its cracks. Also known as the Wailing Wall, it's a remnant of Herod the Great's Temple complex, destroyed by Romans in 70 CE, and remains a focal point of Jewish identity, faith, and historical connection to the land, often a site of religious and political significance. Visit the Temple Mount to view the Dome of the Rock and the Al Aksa Mosque. Continue to Pool of Bethesda. The Pool of Bethesda is referred to in John's Gospel in the Christian New Testament, in an account of Jesus healing a paralyzed man at a pool of water in Jerusalem, described as being near the Sheep Gate and surrounded by five covered colonnades or porticoes.
