Private Tour of Masada, Dead Sea, and more
A private tour is a great way to explore the Masada and Dead Sea region. It will take you on an unforgettable journey from Jerusalem or Tel Aviv to the Masada fortress which stands proudly beside the Dead Sea. Climbing by either cable car or along the iconic snake path, you’ll have a tour of the archaeological sites as well as soak in the breathtaking view across the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth, before continuing to the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve for a hike along one of Israel’s most beautiful desert wadis and oasis’s. You’ll finish the day swimming (floating) in the magical waters of the Dead Sea, or perhaps immersing yourself in the mineral rich mud that can be found here. This is a private tour lead by a fully licensed guide. It can be customized to your interests (see options below).
