“What a trip!  Leading up to visiting Israel we were excited with anticipation, but boy did it exceed anything we had imagined.  Our tour guide CJ was outstanding. He broke down the Jewish culture, past and modern history, biblical connections/application, and geography of Israel at every site.  It was just so awesome with how many sites and artifacts we were shown and how seamlessly our trip was organized. Throughout the week we were taken well care of.  We stayed in very nice hotels, ate great food, and enjoyed a comfortable, air-conditioned bus driven by our expert driver, Happy.  Happy made sure we stayed hydrated and took extra special care of us in keeping us safe. CJ and Happy complemented each other wonderfully. With packed days of touring, we enjoyed restful evenings. We also felt safe and secure throughout our travels, allowing us to delve fully into what we were learning and what God was teaching us about Himself. Besides enjoying CJ and Happys sense of humor, we quickly experienced camaraderie between the rest of our group, which made little things like traveling, eating, and taking pictures fun.  Thank you all for loving on us; we thank God for you and this short time we were able to connect.  And most importantly we thank God as we recognize all the lessons we learned along the way.  He definitely used this trip to reveal new things to us as we learned more about the Bible, God, and ourselves.  Thank you and many Blessings, Jeanne Jackson

This was my first time to Isreal, and it was such a fantastic trip due to our guide Adam and our driver Money Mike! Adam is so knowledgeable and was really able to make each site come alive for me. We had a really large group, and I am sure that Adam felt like he was “herding cats” all week, but he kept us together and moving through the areas while sharing so much information. With Mike’s driving and sense of humor, I felt very safe even though the streets sometimes seemed way too narrow for all of the buses and cars! The team of Adam and Money Mike were fabulous, and I would highly recommend them!!

If you’re doing the Holy Land Tour, there’s no question in which company to choose - it’s Travel With Friends! The entire trip was very well planned and wasted no time in getting us in and out of sites while beating the crowds. Ibrahim was a phenomenal guide! He was personable, fun, and incredibly knowledgeable in the Bible and history of the land. Will definitely do this trip again and go through Travel With Friends!

Day 6: Nazareth Sea of Galilee and Jordan River Yardenit Baptismal site 

The first gem of your tour will be Nazareth city of religion and faith, of spirituality and holiness, but also a city with a rich history, fascinating archeology, modern culture and Middle Eastern charm. Nazareth, which began as a small Jewish village about 2,000 years ago, became a stronghold of Christianity in the Byzantine period, just a few hundred years later. During that period the name of Nazareth spread far and wide, and the yearnings to see the place where the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ had lived turned the city into a popular pilgrimage site. We will visit the Church of Annunciation and the Church of St. Josef .

Proceed to Yardenit , situated on the banks of the Jordan River , flowing forth from the Sea of Galilee , the baptismal site of Yardenit welcomes over half a million tourists and pilgrims annually who come to experience the spirituality and pastoral beauty of the waters of the River Jordan, in which Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist .

According to the Christian faith, the Jordan River YARDENIT is considered the third most holy site in the Holy Land , just after Nativity Grotto in Bethlehem and Golgotha in Jerusalem, because it is the site of the most important event of Jesus’ life – his baptism and beginning of his ministry. The site offers 12 separate baptismal pools, enabling different groups to comfortably conduct private worship ceremonies. Return transfer to hotel in Tel Aviv after the tour.

Day 7:  Western Coast of Israel: Caesarea Haifa Rosh Hanikra Akko 

Next we proceed to  Haifa , the pearl of this tour. Third largest city in Israel and one of its prettiest; Haifa has a lot to offer visitors. It has the Israel’s largest port, a particularly active beach and is the home of the  World Center of the Bahai Faith . The Bahai’s originated in the Bab sect which separated from Iran’s Shi’ite Islam in 1844. The Bahai World Center, an expansive and well-designed complex on the slope of the Carmel, is famous for its magnificent gardens. It includes the exquisitely landscaped “Hanging Gardens” which run about a kilometer along the Louis Promenade until Ha-Gefen Street. At the center is the impressive, gold-domed Shrine of the Bab, the burial place of the Bab, the founder of the faith. One can enjoy some enchanting spots while strolling through the beautiful gardens by day, but with the special lighting, an evening visit provides equal pleasure and a peaceful, romantic atmosphere.

Last visit in  Acre , known also as Akko, Acre’s walls, fortresses, castles, churches, mosques, synagogues and other structures tell the story of the many rulers that governed, fought for, built and adorned the City. Visiting  Acre  is an emotional journey to a glorious past and a one-of-a-kind experience, exciting visit to an ancient city with a young soul –  a city declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site . Return to pick up point.

The Via Dolorosa, where Jesus walked the stations of the cross on his way to his Crucifixion hill. Visitors can retrace Jesus’s steps and visit the bazaars and marketplaces that he saw. There will also be time for shopping and practicing negotiation skills.

The restored Jewish Quarter, including the Cardo (meaning “The Heart”), the main Roman thoroughfare and ancient marketplace lined with columns that has been unearthed.

The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, believed by many Christians to be the site of Golgotha, where Jesus was crucified and resurrected.

Mount Zion, home to the Upper Room or “The Room of the Last Supper” (as mentioned in the Gospels of Mark, Luke, Matthew, and Acts) and the tomb of King David. The mountain offers a panoramic view of Jerusalem.

Caesarea: Built by Herod the Great over 2,000 years ago, this ancient city was once the capital of Judea. It was here that Paul embarked on his journey to Tarsus (Acts 9:30) and where Cornelius and his family (the first Gentile believers) lived.
