Jerusalem, Masada, Ein Gedi and Dead Sea Tour - 2 Days

Experience four of Israel’s crown jewels on our two-day tour of Jerusalem, Masada, the Dead Sea, and Ein Gedi. Start your tour from one of our centralized pickup points in Tel Aviv or Jerusalem. You will enjoy a comprehensive one day tour of Jerusalem, where you will visit all four quarters of the Old City, as well as seeing the highlights of the new parts of the city outside of the walls. On your second day, you will be picked up from your hotel in the morning and then continue on to explore Masada, the amazing desert fortress, experience a true desert oasis at Ein Gedi, and float in the Dead Sea, the lowest place on Earth. Our tour is available every day, seven days a week, starting in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv, and is led by an experienced and fully licensed tour guide.

Note: Between January 15 and 25, there will be no option to take the cable car due to construction. Instead, guests will hike the short Hasoela trail. This may extend the length of the tour slightly between these dates.
