What you can expect

Embark on an exclusive Bethlehem Day Tour departing from Tel Aviv, tracing the historic path through the Judean Hills to Bethlehem, mirroring the journey of Mary and Joseph over two millennia ago. Marvel at the breathtaking biblical scenery as we make our initial stop at the Palestinian Separation Wall adorned with world-renowned graffiti by Bansky, delivering poignant anti-war messages with his signature wit and style.

Following a brief visit to the Banksy Shop, our expedition continues to the revered Shepherds' Field, where the angel heralded the birth of Christ to the shepherds according to Luke 2:8-14. Admire the captivating Chapel of the Angels, crafted by Antonio Barluzzi, featuring stunning murals ideal for capturing memorable photographs.

Our journey progresses to Bethlehem itself, where a short drive brings us to the Milk Grotto, a sacred site where Mary nursed the infant Jesus during a period of seclusion after the nativity. Delve into the rich traditions and cultural significance of this hallowed place before arriving at Manger Square, a sacred hub drawing Christians from around the globe.

Time permitting, immerse yourself in the vibrant ambiance of the Bethlehem Market before the highlight of our tour: the iconic Church of the Nativity, commemorating the blessed birth of Jesus. Unlike other tours constrained by local availability, our group gains complete access and guaranteed entrance to the Grotto of the Nativity itself. You'll experience the full splendour of this revered site as you behold the renowned star-studded marble floor, gaze upon the opulent interior adorned with golden-hued mosaics, and step into the Chapel of the Kings where the Three Wise Men beheld the nativity, as recounted in Matthew 2:1-12.

Enriched by insights into the site's storied history, return to the comfort of our spacious tour bus and journey back to the starting point, savouring the picturesque vistas that punctuate this unforgettable Bethlehem excursion—a fitting conclusion to a truly remarkable guided tour!
