Judean Desert Jeep Tour

Our Judean Desert Jeep Safari Tour is an exciting Jeep tour that showcases the beauty of the Judean Desert, during an adventure-filled day that begins from Jerusalem. Explore the Judean Desert with a licensed tour guide, on board of a Jeep, and learn of plants and animals that inhabit this extreme environment. Your ultimate Judean desert Jeep tour will start from a  water cistern in the desert. You will learn from your local guide how water is stored in the desert. Your next stop will be Jabal Montar -climb up the mountain which is believed to be the site of the biblical scapegoat ceremony (Azazel in Hebrew) in which a goat was carried out from the temple and cast out in the desert, carrying with it the sins of the community. Continue your trip in the Jeep and stop at an observation point and admire the breathtaking views over the 1,500-year-old Mar Saba Monastery. After that amazing views, take some time for a short break and enjoy some coffee, tea, and cookies. The last stop of the day will be an observation point with panoramic views over the Dead Sea, before heading back to Jerusalem!
