Tours to the Holy Land: Trips & Israel Tour Packages 2024, 2025

"Every place we visited was breathtakingly beautiful, with stunning landscapes and rich historical and cultural heritage. We highly recommend visiting Israel to anyone who wants to experience an unforgettable journey. We had a life-changing time there and are already planning to return." Simon L. and Beatriz G. – Tour to Israel/Egypt/Jordan February 2024 "I had a wonderful time in Israel. I felt while I was there the precautions that were taken for our safety were well in hand. I still got to experience many holy sites and be blessed by walking the path that Jesus walked. Every day was started in prayer, singing, or scripture reading which also extended the blessing of the trip." Quincie L. – Tour to Israel/Egypt/Jordan February 2024

Our Israel tours & Holy Land tours of 9-24 days for the Evangelical Protestant Bible believer are what Pilgrim Tours does best. Prepare yourself for a life-changing journey to walk where Jesus walked and visit Jerusalem, Galilee, & Samaria. Each of our Israel tours is led by a local guide who is an experienced expert on the historical, cultural, scenic, and spiritual history of the Holy Land. If you travel with 10 or more people, a private group tour can easily be arranged. Pilgrim Tours can customize an itinerary to fit your group needs with many options to choose from.

Concerned about safety? As a Christian tour operator, the staff at Pilgrim Tours takes a Biblical perspective regarding the current situation in the Middle East. We do not believe that peace in Israel is something that will occur until the Prince of Peace comes to restore His kingdom. Please do not make a reservation with us based on the hopes of a calm future. If you long for the special blessings only available in Israel, we will take you there. An expert driver and guide will carefully keep you from any areas that could present a problem and treat you to the riches of Israel as our special guest.

Below is a large variety of Israel tour packages departing in 2024 and 2025 year-round.

Featured Sites in Israel

Explore a vast selection of beautiful historical and Biblical locations throughout Israel with our Israel Holy Land tour. You can visit Jerusalem, Galilee, and parts of Samaria, getting the life-changing opportunity to see where Jesus and many other Biblical figures lived and walked. We even offer Holy Land tours that allow you to see the Dead Sea, the Garden Tomb, and the Jordan River Baptism Site. Like all of our Europe tours , our Israel Holy Land tours are led by local guides who have extensive knowledge of the area and its history. If you want to experience the history of Israel and see the Bible come to life, our Holy Land tours give you that opportunity.

The city of Jerusalem offers a unique convergence of Judaism, Christianity, and the Muslim faith. For Christians who visit Jerusalem, you will learn about many stories of the Bible while walking her streets. Many actors in the Bible such as Abraham, King David, King Solomon, the twelve disciples and Jesus all lived, visited, or spent time there. The Passion week of Christ will be highlighted during our stay as we visit the Mount of Olives, the Garden of Gethsemane, the Western Wall, the Way of Suffering, and the Garden Tomb.

Sea of Galilee

Nowhere in Israel does the Bible come to life more than along the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Pilgrims who visit the Galilee region have the opportunity to imagine what life was like 2,000 years ago and what Jesus and the twelve disciples experienced while fishing on the Sea of Galilee. The peaceful setting and the natural wonders of the Golan Heights to the east and Mt. Arbel to the west make for a great way to start your morning in quiet reflection. During our tour, we explore the Biblical towns of Capernaum, Magdala, and Nazareth and take a meaningful cruise on the Sea of Galilee.

The Dead Sea is not only the lowest and most lifeless lake in the world, but also nearly 10 times saltier than the ocean. Travelers will enjoy the beautiful colors of the blue water and the red mountains of Jordan to the east. Take time to enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime Dead Sea “float” either in the sea itself or at one of the warm salt water pools at our hotel. The Dead Sea experience is truly a bucket list visit you won’t want to miss!

Garden Tomb

Our visit to the Garden Tomb and its surrounding gardens is normally one of the highlights of our tour to Israel. The Garden Tomb is a rock-cut tomb in Jerusalem that was unearthed in 1867 and is considered by some Protestants to be the site of the burial and resurrection of Jesus. Our visit offers a unique time of prayer, reflection, communion, and praise, which will be a special life-long memory for many travelers.

Jordan River Baptism Site

The Jordan River Baptist Site or “Yardenit” is a baptism site located along the Jordan River just south of the Sea of Galilee in northern Israel. This site is frequented by Christian Pilgrims who enjoy imagining the setting of the baptism of Jesus. For anyone who would like to be baptized in the Jordan River, Yardenit has been developed to be a peaceful setting with beautiful gardens, clean colored water, changing facilities, showers, and a nice souvenir shop.

Caesarea Philippi

To many Pilgrim travelers, Caesarea Philippi is a special surprise while on their tour. Located along the rushing springs of Mt. Hermon, the beautiful and natural setting is where Jesus asked his disciples “Who do men say that I am?” He asked this question while observing the pagan worship of the god Pan as worshipers offered their sacrifice at the “Gates of Hell.” Our time at Caesarea Philippi is one of many opportunities throughout our tour to see the lessons and message of the Bible come to light in a special way.

Israel Tours: Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best month for the Holy Land tour?

Taking a trip to Israel during the spring or fall offers the most enjoyable weather of the year but normally has the largest crowds. If you want to enjoy a peaceful tour with fewer crowds, consider visiting between December and February or June and August. We offer Israel and Jordan tours throughout the year, so you can select a trip that works for your schedule.

How many days do you need for a Holy Land tour?

We offer several types of tours of the Holy Land, so the duration of your tour depends on the tour package you choose. The Best of Israel Tour is our most basic offering and includes a Sea of Galilee boat ride, a trip to the Jordan River Baptism Site, the Dead Sea, and many opportunities to walk on the same land Jesus walked on. This is our shortest trip at just 9 or 10 days. Our most involved trips allow you to experience a wide range of historical locations over the course of a few weeks. Egypt tours are included in some of these packages, as well as tours in Greece and other countries. These tours can take up to 24 days, giving you the chance to spend an extended period of time learning about and visiting different parts of the world. From our Turkey tours to all of our Israel Christian tours, all of our tours feature a first-class hotel rating for the country you visit. We do offer some upgraded tours that offer better lodging options. You can review our hotel categories at https://www.pilgrimtours.com/company/hotelcomparison.htm . Check out any of our tours to view a day-by-day itinerary and see what amenities are included with each tour.

What is the dress code in Israel?

The dress code in Israel is different from other parts of the world. There are a few dress code basics you should understand before booking Israel tours: When you’re in Israel, there is no strict dress code. You can wear what you feel comfortable wearing. However, both men and women should try to dress conservatively and cover their shoulders and knees when visiting any of the religious sites throughout Israel. Generally speaking, it’s best to avoid tank tops and shorts. Men need to cover their heads when visiting the Western Wall. Pilgrim Tours provides a Pilgrim Tours ball cap upon arrival in Israel, but you might consider purchasing an affordable kippa that you can bring when you visit Jewish sites. Some places may offer a free kippa, but these are generally low quality. (Women are not required to cover their heads at any sight.) You can figure out what you need to pack and how to dress each day by looking at the itinerary for our Holy Land tours. Guides normally offer guidance on how to dress for the next day while on tour. We also suggest looking at the extended weather forecast as you prepare and pack for your trip.

Is there a lot of walking involved on an Israel Tour?

Our Israel tours do require a significant amount of walking each day and you should be able to walk unassisted 3-4 miles per day on average. Make sure you have a comfortable pair of shoes that provide adequate support. While there are bus and boat rides during these tours, you have to walk quite a bit to explore some of the Biblical sites. Our tour guides normally give the group a few options at sites for those that have physical limitations. One thing to keep in mind is that there are many hills and valleys in Israel which can make walking even more taxing. The amount of walking you have to do may vary based on the tour you take, so look at the itinerary before choosing your tour. The good news is that Israel is a beautiful country to see on foot, and you’ll have several opportunities to sit down and give your feet a rest. As long as you have a good pair of shoes and comfortable clothes, it’s easy to forget about all the walking you’re doing and enjoy the tour.

What passport & visa information do I need for your Israel tours?

U.S. citizens need a valid U.S. passport with at least six months validity beyond their intended stay to enter Israel. Make two photocopies of your passport. Leave one copy at home and carry the other separately from your original. Israel: U.S. and Canadian Citizens do not need a Visa when entering Israel. Non U. S. /Canadian Citizens are responsible to fulfill appropriate entry requirements of destination. Contact your Consulate office for requirements.

What common languages will be spoken during your Israel tours?

Hebrew, Arabic and English.

What currency can I use on your Israel tours?

The U.S. dollar is widely accepted across Israel, and we suggest bringing about $30 for each day you’ll be on tour. U.S. dollars are recommended for use for small purchases and lunches. Lunches typically cost $15-20. It is important to bring about 20 $1 bills as some bathrooms charge a small fee for use. Credit cards may also be used for larger purchases. ATMs in Israel are all connected to European and American banking systems. Please be advised that the ATM machines dispense money in SHEKELS – NOT U.S. DOLLARS. Please notify your bank before traveling overseas.

Do I need to bring a converter for the Israel tour?

Israel uses the European plug with two round pins. You will need to bring along the necessary converters and adapters to operate any 120 volt appliances such as hair dryers and electric razors as well as camera and cell phone chargers. Electricity in Israel is 220 volts 50 Hz.

What is the time zone for your Israel tours?

The time zone for Israel is seven hours ahead of EST and two hours ahead of GMT.

What climate should I expect during your Israel tours?

In Israel the climate is temperate, and temperatures all year-round are reasonable. Israel has two main seasons: winter (from November to March) is cold and rainy in most parts of the country; summer (from April to October) is hot and dry with little or no rainfall. The desert areas can be extremely hot in summer time.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING...

From a group of individuals, with varying motivation, we left as friends, not only with each other but with the people we met along the way and felt united as a group, bound by the shared and varied experiences which Holy Land Trust had given us. It was exhausting and amazing in equal measure, but above all, a once in a lifetime experience.

This program gives you a truly extensive immersion experience across The Holy Land. The community projects, the family visits, and access to policymakers sets this program apart from all the rest.

My own Christian faith has been deepened from my experience. I have more hope for the region from having met so many incredible people.

The most amazing thing is how the Palestinians have retained their amazing spirit! I felt so welcomed by everyone I spoke with and met while at PSE. By the end of my time in Palestine, I had a new family that I loved... many new friends from around the world... and I am happy to let you know I consider  ‪ Palestine my other home. Inshallah"

The tour went very smoothly. Adjustments were made appropriately to itineraries due to traffic conditions or time constraints, transport was comfortable and efficient, the guides were all informative and (mostly!) sensitive and the hotels looked after us well. We all enjoyed the food!

My time spent there was perhaps the most influential thing I’ve ever done, it has greatly ignited my passion for social justice and encouraged me to advocate for the ‪injustice of this conflict as much as I can.

Customer Testimonals

I used All Saints Travel for a pilgrimage to World Youth Day for around 50 pilgrims in August 2023. All Saints were fantastic and extremely helpful with planning and answering many of my emails and calls. They found us a fantastic hotel in Lisbon and managed the transfers and special requirements of the group. They also facilitated day trips and other requests for additional items such as room bookings, meals and day trips. Melanie our representative helped us throughout, sourcing many telephone calls and emails. She had excellent attention to detail in order to ensure our pilgrimage was a great success. I would wholeheartedly recommend All Saints Travel.

Dear Nelia and Theresa, thank you very

much for the spiritual journey we made together, it was a fantastic experience that I will keep very deep in heart, I made the journey to find my inner self, I met wonderful people who probably have similar desire. Having our renewal baptisms, and those who renew their wedding vows, and witness Terry And Theresa wedding anniversary it was quite overwhelming, GOOD LUCK AND A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW to every one, hopefully some of us will meet again in Poland. Thank you again. God Bless.

Dearest Nelia, my family will forever be grateful to you for your care, understanding and support during our trip to the Holy Land. Thank you so very much. May God bless you and your family. Keep us in your prayers and we will do the same. With kind regards,

Hello Nelia, all home safe and sound! The pilgrimage has been wonderful: Raouf guided us BRILLIANTLY; the hotels were very good (I especially liked my room at Rimonim!); the itinerary was perfect. We are tired but the experience was wonderful and our faith deepened. Sharing the pilgrimage with Fr Noel and his people was a privilege and a joy. May God bless you for all your help.

Just to say thank you for the wonderful and varied pilgrimage and wider trip to Mexico. The country and Mexican people were infinitely fascinating and lovely. The day spent at the shrine was unforgettable. All the travelling companions became friends and it was just so brilliant for me and my brother Adrian to spend time with my sister Pat and Henry. Thank you once again and God bless.

Many thanks for giving us all such an amazing trip to Mexico to experience its fine race, fabulous culture and the beautiful pilgrimage sites. Bob and I had a wonderful time and we will treasure those memories forever.

I just want to say a big thank you to all at All Saints Travel for making this pilgrimage possible for my mother and myself. She really enjoyed it as I did too. Everything was great and better than possibly imagined, and everyone was lovely and really patient with my mother. I never thought it would have been possible for my mother, but it was! With God all things are possible! Thanks again and take care,

Just a brief line or two to say thank you most sincerely for your friendship, generosity, kindness and help. We are truly grateful to you and value your friendship. We do not tire of telling our family and friends about the wonderful and spiritually rewarding pilgrimage we enjoyed thanks in very large part to the superb organisation of every single aspect of the pilgrimage by All Saints Travel and thanks too to your sterling efforts and those of the irrepressible Dora and our superb driver. With our love.

I just wanted to let you know how much my Mother and I enjoyed our pilgrimage to Israel. It was extremely well planned and organised. The staff at the Star Hotel were friendly and welcoming. Our guide, Mike, was excellent. He made sure the group kept to the schedule and was extremely well informed about every place we visited. Our priest, Julien, was a wonderful spiritual leader. All in all, it was a great experience! Thank you Anna

We will definitely travel with you in the near future. We had a very good experience even in a very short span of time. You looked after us very well despite the distance. From the bottom of my heart and my Mum a huge thank you that our health and safety is your top priority. Your kind gesture and compassion are highly appreciated.

A tour from the UK to Israel is about the safest tourism solution that can be found nowadays, and with our decades of experience in the travel industry, we believe that tourism from the UK might be among the first one to boom again.

The British Isles and the Land of Israel have a long history of relations, at times tumultuous, but which played an important role in the formation of our countries. Understanding the history of the Holy Land is instrumental to understanding British history too, starting from "Jerusalem", the informal national anthem of England. Going on a Holy Land tour with Genesis Boutique Travel is the best way to do it, as our company prioritizes customer care and strives to provide the best experience for our clients.

'We have one holy land': Palm Beach women offer aid, support during Israel trip

Equally joyful and heartbreaking, a trip to Israel concluded last week for a group of women representing Palm Beach Synagogue.

As part of the congregation's first Women’s Israel Mission Dec. 24-29, 14 women offered emotional, financial and in-person support to those impacted by the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks.

Led by Dinie Scheiner, the director of the synagogue's Hebrew School and wife of Rabbi Moshe Scheiner, the trip included visits with wounded soldiers, bereaved families and the families of hostages being held by Hamas; delivering care packages to soldiers; volunteering with farmers on the Gaza border; and hosting barbecues for soldiers serving on the front lines of the conflict.

Related: Palm Beach religious leaders condemn Hamas attack against Israel

The women also visited the site of the Supernova music festival near Kibbutz Re’im in southern Israel, where more than 350 people were killed during the Hamas attacks; and hosted children from the Israeli city of Sderot at the Magic Kaas indoor amusement park.

More than 1,200 people were killed in Israel and thousands more were wounded in the Oct. 7 attacks, Israeli officials said. Another 240 people were taken hostage by Hamas, and  more than 100 remain under militant control .

"Our goal was to bring love, solidarity, inspiration, support, funds, hugs, gifts and in-person support primarily to the women, children and soldiers," Scheiner told the Daily News.

"This was our mission before the trip. Little did we realize that we would surpass our mission and our goals exponentially. The impact we made on every person we met was beyond what we could've imagined. The grateful sad smiles, the hugs and words of appreciation we received, was so heartfelt."

The Women's Israel Mission followed an October trip to Israel taken by a group of Palm Beach Synagogue rabbis .

Both trips included visits to the Kfar Aza kibbutz in southern Israel, which was attacked by Hamas militants Oct. 7 and remains under Israel Defense Forces control.

The women experienced a scary moment during their trip to Kfar Aza when a siren sounded, indicating a rocket attack was imminent. The women had less than 10 seconds to get to a bomb shelter, Scheiner said, and not everyone made it inside.

"Half of us ran to the shelter, and half did not make it in and laid on the ground with their hands over their heads to protect their vital organs, as we were instructed to do," she said. "As we ran, some were trampled on from the rush to make it into the shelter. It was chaotic for a few minutes.

"Once it was safe to get up and out, we realized that the shrapnel from the missile landed a foot away from where we were laying. It was truly a miracle that most of us made it into the shelter. I shudder to think otherwise."

The Kfar Aza visit was one of the most difficult parts of the trip, Scheiner said, as was attending the funeral of a 24-year-old Israeli soldier who left behind a pregnant wife and 10-month-old baby.

"Soldiers in Israel are very young or family men," she said. "They are not the kind of people that you think of when you hear 'soldier.' They are protecting the one land we have. We don’t have any options. We have one holy land. It’s sink or swim for them. They have no choice but to swim."

Other portions of the trip were far more uplifting, including a barbecue held on the Egyptian border for a mostly female IDF unit, and the bar mitzvah of Ori, an Israeli boy from the city of Ofakim who lost his father and older brother in the Hamas attacks.

Palm Beach Synagogue sponsored the bar mitzvah, which included customized party favors, a barbecue, dancing and a performance by Israeli singer-songwriter Ishay Ribo.

"Ori emotionally struggled going through with his bar mitzvah and told his mother he would not celebrate without his father," Scheiner said. "Our community, led by a bar mitzvah boy from our synagogue, Yoni Magin, who took this on as his bar mitzvah project, raised the funds to give Ori the bar mitzvah of his dreams."

The women concluded their trip with a visit to the Wailing Wall, a place of prayer and pilgrimage in Jerusalem that is sacred to the Jewish people.

"I'm proud for who we are and what we accomplished," trip participant Jane Shalem said. "We were working the entire time. We didn’t go to restaurants. We just kept doing the next task needed."

"I never fathomed I would gladly and enthusiastically raise my hand to fly into a war zone," added trip participant Gail Marks. "But The Women’s Mission gave me the opportunity to participate in something truly amazing, way bigger and more impactful than anything I had ever done before."
