The Old City of Jerusalem

A Tapestry of Monotheistic Religions
The Old City of Jerusalem is more than just an age-old tourist site. It’s an area where faith and spirituality thrive, where architecture tells tales of history, and streets reminisce about the adventures of the past.
Jerusalem, known for its sacred traditions and monotheistic religions, intertwines the diversity among faiths and cultures. It’s the home of Jews, Muslims, and Christians. For many years past and in the years to come, the significance of these independent religions has carved a unique narrative for the city and its people. We will wander through the old Shuk (market) that spans the 4 quarters, Armenian, Christian, Jewish and Muslim, of this ancient city. The tour will be specifically catered to what you want to experience in this ancient modern city.
Options for Exploration (This is just a sample of the available options—additional possibilities can be explored when planning your personalized tour.)

Western Wall

Beloved by Jews, the Western Wall is incredibly revered. This place of pilgrimage is sacred, considered holy, and devotedly preserved as an ongoing tribute to the glory of the Second Temple. Feel free to jot down a personal prayer to leave in between the sacred Herodian stones that comprise this holy place.

City of David

Take a walk down the slopes of the city of David, the original Jerusalem where King David himself once lived. Go into the ancient Canaanite water tunnel and start your adventure from over 4000 years ago.

Hurva Synagogue

The Hurva Synagogue, aside from its monumental symbolism, is one of the most impressive structures in the Jewish Quarter. As a longstanding highlight within the Old City, the synagogue embodies unmatched symbolism. It reminisces the resilience and stands in its breathtaking might after years of rebuilding.

Church of the Holy Sepulchre

The Christian Quarter nests the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a historical site where Jesus is believed to have been crucified, buried and resurrected. From phenomenal architecture that was built, rebuilt and expanded, that attracts admiration to the value of devotion to one’s faith, a journey within the Church of the Holy Sepulchre is a must-visit.

Via Dolorosa

Via Dolorosa is a revered route in the Old City. It’s believed to be the path taken by Jesus to his crucifixion. Every step along this way is a spiritual reminder for those who are believers, inviting people of faith from across the globe.

Al-Aqsa Mosque

Al-Aqsa, also known as the Qibli Mosque, is a pivotal location for believers of Islam. Sitting on the southern end of thr temple mount, Haram al Sharif, is known for its prophesied significance, revered by Muslims worldwide. This is a place of worship where mankind deepens their connection to the divine, offering prayer in congregation. But that’s not all—a rich history engulfs the site of this mosque that was rebuilt and renovated several times.

The Dome of the Rock

Famed as the oldest extant Muslim shrine on earth, this exquisite structure built in the late 7th century holds many secrets within. Its intricate façade will enthrall you in its beauty. Topped with a solid gold dome, and covering what is considered the foundation stone of creation, this is also the place Isaac was bound by his father Abraham and the site where Muhammad made his night journey to the far mosque. This site one simply must see to believe.
