13 days in Jerusalem Itinerary

Few places in the world boast such a long history and such a rich multiethnic culture as Jerusalem, a city sacred to Jews, Muslims, and Christians.

Explore Jerusalem's surroundings by going to Masada National Park (in Masada), Jaffa Old City (in Jaffa) and Tel Aviv (Neve Tzedek, Food Tours, & more). On the 4th (Thu), spend a fun day on foot with Walking tours. There's much more to do: get engrossed in the history at Yad Vashem - The World Holocaust Remembrance Center, contemplate the long history of Temple Mount, appreciate the extensive heritage of Old City of Jerusalem, and see the interesting displays at Israel Museum.
