Tour Itinerary
From the coast of the Mediterranean to the shores of the Sea of Galilee, a flood of emotions is to be expected on this moving religious tour through Israel and Jordan. What better way to immerse yourself in the treasured stories of Scripture than by standing at the very sites where Jesus walked on water, turned water into wine, and was baptized by John the Baptist? Follow in every footstep as you travel from the site of Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem to the site of the Last Supper on Mount Zion. Tears of joy are balanced with bellows of laughter as you float effortlessly in the salt-laden waters of the Dead Sea, go four-wheeling through the sand dunes of Wadi Rum, and channel “Indy” as you navigate the narrow gorge of the Siq at the rock-cut archaeological site of Petra made famous in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

BLENDING CULTURAL PROXIMITY WITH SOCIAL DISTANCEThere may be times on tour or on the motorcoach when social distancing is required. We will take care in assuring any local guidelines are followed in a safe and comfortable way for our guests. For any cases where masks are required due to local guidelines, we ask that guests bring their own approved N95 (FFP2) masks for their own comfort and safety.

Globus will also ensure hand sanitizing is available throughout each trip, on coach and in hotels.

Question: How many suitcases can I take with me on my trip?
Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?
Satisfied with the service. Luke is always on time responding to my emails and questions. Tour guide and driver very accommodating and nice Tal our tour guide is very good detailed info, knowledgeable on all subjects.
Very knowledgeable tour guides and excellent drivers especially Shiomi.
I consider this trip as experience of a lifetime. The accommodations/hotels provided to us were so good especially the Marriott in Dead sea. Globus even provided us with security officer/police to escort us when we were in Jordan. My group felt so secured and the tour was smooth and we felt so safe . The tour directors were awesome and informative especially our tour director in Jordan Sam. He is the best so far.
Excellent itinerary! We were able to see a lot during the time we had in Israel and Jordan. This meant very full days. Our Globus tour guide was OK. Another Globus group, with a different tour guide was on the same tour and they were raving about him. We had a great time, excellent itinerary but would have been even better with a different tour guide for the Israel portion.
The trip to the biblical sites in Israel & Jordan was most interesting & educational. Saddam, our guide in Jordan, was very knowledgeable, informative, organized and took good care of us, tour participants. We consider the visit to Petra to be the highlight of the trip. The jeep tour in Wadi Rum, which included a short visit to a Bedouin camp, was exciting. We were not too happy with our tour guide in Israel, who was rather disorganized & did not have a good grasp of the history of the places we visited. Some of the information this guide provided were factually incorrect.
Had a great trip and going to recommend this trip to my family and friends. It never entered into my mind that our safety would be compromised. I felt so safe with the people who were responsible for our safety. The whole trip experience was excellent.
Am very happy with this trip.
The Dan Panorama in Tel Aviv and Haifa were fair, not up to the standards of the others hotels. On the tour there was too many dinner buffets, I would like some three course dinners , not buffets, I was not the only one that felt this way.
