Description:

Devote a day to understanding more about the Jewish way of life. Tour Jerusalem's Old and New Cities, witness traditional communities, and pause at memorials for reflection as your knowledgeable guide educates you along the way. Admire the view of the region from the summit of Mount Scopus.

Begin with a trip up Mount Scopus to marvel at the city and the neighboring Judea Desert in the morning light. Descend and enter the Old City through the Zion Gate, learning about its significance in the Six-Day War. Visit the tomb of King David on Mount Zion and take a walk along the Cardo, an ancient Roman road, with your guide providing historical perspective.

Observe the 16th century Sephardic Synagogues, recently restored to their former glory, and proceed to the Wailing Wall (Kotel) to view the site of Jewish pilgrimage. Continue on to Mea Shearim, and learn about the distinctive lifestyle of the Ultra-Orthodox communities. Drive to Mount Hertzl to see the military cemetery before making a final stop at the Yad Vashem, memorial to the Holocaust and an ideal place to reflect on all you've seen.
