Israel

A place of pilgrimage and passion, Israel never fails to take one’s breath away with its eerily still Dead Sea, ancient sites of Jerusalem and Nazareth, emotion-inspiring Western Wall, and postcard-perfect natural beauty. Religious devotion is everywhere—Islam, Judaism, Christianity—and complemented seamlessly by white-sand beaches, Galilean wineries, and world-class cuisine. Take a panoramic tour of the formal Baha’i Gardens. Visit the sacred sites of the Dome of the Rock, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Mount of Olives. Zoom by cable car, or trek, up to the plateau of Masada National Park. Delve into the North Coast’s Rosh HaNikra Grottoes. Here, where cultures and religions have met for ages, you’ll come away challenged and inspired in ways never imagined.
