  • Day 1

    Jerusalem Old City & New City

    Get to Mount Scopus by 8 AM to catch great morning views and avoid the midday heat and tourist crowds. The Old City walls look best in morning light. Plan about 2 hours to walk the Via Dolorosa (Way of Sorrows). The ancient stones can be slick so wear good shoes. "The Western Wall is incredibly moving at sunset when locals gather for evening prayers." Visit Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum in the afternoon when you'll welcome the air conditioning. Keep in mind that children under 10 are not allowed inside because of sensitive content.

    
  • Day 2

    Bethlehem & Jericho

    It takes about an hour to drive from Jerusalem to Jericho through striking desert scenery as you go below sea level. Go early before temperatures climb past 100°F (38°C). At the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, peak season lines for the grotto can stretch 2-3 hours. Consider an afternoon visit instead. "Due to crowds, visiting the actual birthplace grotto isn't guaranteed. Focus on exploring the beautiful church complex itself."

    
  • Day 3

    Masada & Dead Sea

    Take the first cable car to Masada at 8 AM before it gets too hot. Bring plenty of water for the steep sections. Head to the Dead Sea by mid-morning for the best floating experience before the water gets too warm. Pack water shoes to protect against sharp salt crystals. You'll need a hat, sunscreen and towel. Stop at Qumran and Ein Gedi between sites when you need a break in the shade.

  • Day 1

    Amman to Jerusalem

    Leave Amman early for the 1-hour drive to King Hussein/Allenby Bridge border crossing. Budget 2-3 hours for the border process. You can opt for VIP service ($170) to reduce wait times. After crossing visit MaqamNabiMousa Islamic shrine between Jerusalem and Jericho. Continue to Jerusalem's Old City to see Al-Aqsa Mosque and Dome of the Rock. Wear appropriate clothing - long sleeves and pants/skirts plus head coverings for women. Keep in mind Al-Aqsa has specific entry times and may close for prayers.

    
  • Day 2

    Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Hebron

    Start at the Mount of Olives before 9 AM to avoid crowds. Visit Maqam Salman Al-Farisi and MaqamRabiatulAdawiyah before going into the Old City. Walk the narrow streets of Jerusalem's Old City in the morning when it's less busy. See the Al Boraq Wall (Western Wall) then drive 45 minutes to Bethlehem. When visiting the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron expect multiple security checks. As one visitor said: "The security process can be time-consuming but the spiritual experience at these holy sites makes it worthwhile."

    
  • Day 3

    Jerusalem to Amman

    Plan 3-4 hours for crossing back into Jordan. Leave Jerusalem around 8 AM when the border is quieter. Keep your crossing receipts and documents handy. Once through immigration it's about an hour's drive back to Amman.

  • Day 1

    Masada and Dead Sea

    Get picked up from Tel Aviv at 6:30 AM (or Jerusalem at 7:50 AM) to avoid the desert heat. The 2.5-hour drive to Masada takes you through the Judean Hills past the Inn of the Good Samaritan. Take the first cable car up around 9 AM when it's still cool. Pack at least 2 liters of water per person and a hat since the fortress has almost no shade. After exploring Masada head to the Dead Sea. It's about a 45-minute drive and best to arrive in early afternoon when the beach is quieter. Water shoes are essential since the salt crystals can hurt your feet. For the best floating experience just lean back and keep your feet up. Avoid getting the water in your eyes or submerging your head.

    
  • Day 2

    Jerusalem and Bethlehem

    Start at Mount Scopus before 9 AM to catch the best morning light for photos of Jerusalem. Enter the Old City through Lions' Gate which usually has fewer crowds. Walk the Via Dolorosa's 14 stations before 10 AM to get ahead of tour groups. For the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem you'll need to dress modestly with shoulders and knees covered. Visit mid-afternoon to avoid 1-2 hour waits at the grotto of Jesus' birth when pilgrim groups are lighter.

    
  • Day 3

    Jerusalem Christian Sites

    Visit Mount of Olives sites in the morning when temperatures are lower. Bring shoes with good grip for the steep downhill walk especially if it's wet. Get to the Garden of Gethsemane right when it opens at 8:30 AM for a peaceful visit. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre has long waits to see Jesus' tomb about 45-60 minutes. Your best options are at opening time (5 AM) or after 4 PM once day tourists leave.
