ISRAEL AND JORDAN
A visit to Jerusalem’s Old City, specifically the Dome of the Rock, provides insights into Israel’s cultural and religious diversity.
A Decade in the Planning...
Explore with us. Talk with the locals. Experience centuries-old customs, rituals and traditions. And be transformed... We spent years meticulously researching every destination in Israel, every locale in Jordan to choreograph the best experiences to explore the rich cultural diversity. Connect with new cultures; how the day is structured is important, and the attention to detail makes the difference when visiting these revered iconic sites. We’ve carefully selected our hotels and resorts... InterContinental David Tel Aviv has a beachfront promenade with sweeping sea views; Tauck guests at The David Citadel Hotel have spectacular views overlooking the walls of Jerusalem’s Old City; Mövenpick Resort & Spa Dead Sea boasts one of the world’s most acclaimed spas; and Mövenpick Resort Petra is just a short walk from the entrance of the 2,000-year-old city. We’ll treat you to unique dining experiences, from a home-cooked-style meal to a Bedouin-style traditional feast to one of the finest restaurants in Jerusalem. And we’ll take you on seamlessly orchestrated sightseeing excursions, at the best times to visit the sites.
