Our tour begins on the Mount of Olives (Har HaZeitim) where we have a panoramic view across the holy city of Jerusalem.  From this elevated point we have the ancient Jewish cemetery beneath us and beyond that the Old City with the shining Dome of the Rock on Temple Mount. Then we take the winding road down to the Kidron Valley giving us a view of the Garden of Gethsemane where Jesus was arrested the night before his crucifixion and we also see the Church of All Nations

We enter the Old City through the Zion Gate and continue on to the Armenian Quarter to the 1500-year-old Byzantine Cardo, an integral part of the citys design dating back to the Roman period

Going through the Jewish Quarter we reach the most holy site in the Jewish faith, the Western Wall. Here Jews from around the world come to pray and put prayer notes between the walls stones. This 2,000 year old wall was part of the outer supporting walls of the holy Second Temple which was destroyed in AD 70

We continue on to the Via Dolorosa or the Way of Sorrows where Jesus walked towards his crucifixion. Along the way we pause at several Stations of the Cross and finally we reach the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. The basilica is constructed above the place where Jesus is believed to have been crucified and within the church is his burial tomb. The byzantine church has been renovated, rebuilt and expanded over the years, today it is a vast and ornate place of worship

To end our tour we take a walk through the busy markets of the Old City where you can buy unique souvenirs
