We will claim our luggage, meet our tour guide, and board our bus. Before going to our hotel, we will make a brief stop in the old city of JAFFA which affords us a breath-taking view of the ancient seaport and the modern city of TEL AVIV located on the Mediterranean Sea. At this picturesque port city of winding alleys, art galleries, and craft boutiques, King Solomon had cedars from Lebanon rafted for the building of the first Temple in Jerusalem. We will view the location of the HOUSE OF SIMON THE TANNER and a beautiful view of the NIGHT LIGHTS OF TEL AVIV. We then drive to the METROPOLITAN HOTEL for check-in and dinner and a good night’s rest. We will begin our “Journey of a Lifetime” in the morning. DINNER & OVERNIGHT AT THE METROPOLITAN HOTEL – TEL AVIV, ISRAEL TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2021 JOFFA / CAESAREA / MT. CARMEL / MEGIDDO / TIBERIAS After breakfast at our hotel, we begin our journey northward along the western coast of Israel traveling the PLAINS OF SHARON, the MEDITERRANEAN SEA, and the old coastal road called the VIA MARIS, that linked Egypt and Babylon. As we travel northward to the GALILEE, we will stop at CAESAREA, the incredible fortress city built by King Herod the Great. Pontius Pilate had his base here as well. Cornelius lived and was baptized here (Acts 10); Paul embarked to Tarsus from here (Acts 9:30); and Philip preached here (Acts 8:40). We will visit a ROMAN THEATRE, a ROMAN HIPPODROME, and a CRUSADER CITY. We will make a brief stop to see the giant AQUA-DUCTS built by Herod to supply his place in Caesarea with fresh water. We continue northward toward Haifa and ascend MT. CARMEL, the site where the prophet Elijah called down fire from heaven and slew the false prophets of Baal (1 Kings 18). We will stand on the roof of a monastery and see an incredible panoramic view of ARMAGEDDON (PLAINS OF JEZREEL). After our visit to Mt. Carmel, we turn inland and proceed to TEL MEGIDDO, one of King Solomon’s fortified cities (1 Kings 9:15; 10:26), with ruins of 20 levels of civilizations. From here the Books of Daniel and Revelation will come alive as we read about ARMAGEDDON, while viewing the PLAINS OF JEZREEL. As we proceed toward the SEA OF GALILEE, we will make a brief stop at the CHURCH OF THE PRIMACY to see where Jesus three times asked Peter, “Do you love me?” We then continue to the RAMOT HOTEL located on the eastern side of the SEA OF GALILEE. After check- in, we will enjoy a delicious dinner at our hotel.

Here we will see a boat recovered that dates back to the days of Jesus. We will continue our sight-seeing by traveling to CAPERNAUM, the center of Jesus’ Galilean ministry. We will see the remains of the HOUSE OF PETER and WHITE SYNAGOGUE. Jesus taught and worshipped in this very synagogue when He was in Capernaum. We will then continue to the MOUNT OF BEATITUDES where Jesus delivered what is perhaps the most famous sermon ever preached – “The Sermon on the Mount”. We then make our way to CAESAREA PHILIPPI (BANIAS), one of the sources of the JORDAN RIVER. This is where Jesus took His Disciples to ask them just one question – “Who do men say that I the Son of Man am?” (Matthew 16:13). We then travel to TEL DAN, located in Northern Israel. This is the most northern tip of Israel and borders Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan. This is the site where Jeroboam
erected two golden calves, committing idolatry. Next, we travel up the GOLAN HEIGHTS and the FIELD OF TEARS. The Golan Heights provides us a breath taking view all the way into Syria. We then return to our hotel for dinner and good night’s rest. We will end our day with a visit to Kursi, where the Demonic of Gadara had a conversation with Jesus.

We will then travel through the JORDAN VALLEY onto BEIT SHE’AN, where we will walk through the excavations of the largest ongoing archaeological dig in the land of Israel. It is also the city where the bodies of King Saul and his sons were nailed to the walls by the Philistines (1 Samuel 31:10). Along the way, we will stop to see GIDEON’S SPRING where he instructed his men to drink water from the spring. Time permitting, we will stop and see a ZODIAC inside an ancient synagogue. Next, we ascend up to JERUSALEM stopping briefly to view the ROAD TO JERICHO from above. Upon arriving in JERUSALEM – THE WONDERFUL CITY OF GOD.

Afterwards, we make our way to our bus and ride across the KIDRON VALLEY to the MOUNT OF OLIVES where we will have a group photo. Then we proceed to the GARDEN OF GETHSEMANE where Jesus prayed the night before He was crucified. We will visit the TOMB OF THE PROPHETS, head across the KIDRON VALLEY to MT.

At this site on the JORDAN RIVER, some may want to be baptized in the Jordan River. We will then proceed to the DEAD SEA where you can wade into the water. We then make our way to QUMRAN, site where the DEAD SEA SCROLLS were discovered. Next, we go to EIN GEDI, site where David hid in the caves from King Saul.
