Welcome to the Holy Land - the most Magical place in the world. Visit Jerusalem which is without a doubt one of the most unique cities of all times, the proud capital of modern Israel and the holiest place on earth for two of the three monotheistic religions: Christianity and Judaism and next only to Mecca and Medina in its holiness and significance for Islam. For centuries, pilgrims from all over the world have been making the exhausting journey across strange and hostile lands to make a wish at the Western Wall of the Temple of Solomon or to light a candle at Golgotha and the Tomb of Jesus or to pray at the mosque at Al Aqsa on Temple Mount. Walk in the footsteps of Jesus around the Sea of Galilee following the Ministry of Christ. Spend time in Tel Aviv, the city that never sleeps and take a leisurely stroll from the waterfront of Tel Aviv to Old Jaffa one of the oldest cities and certainly the oldest seaport in the world. Relax in Eilat and enjoy the crystal clear waters of the Red Sea. Or float on the Dead Sea with its amazing healing powers and the lowest point on Earth . www.veredgo.com 1 Directory: CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS IN THE HOLYLAND..........................................................3 CATHOLIC GROUP TO THE HOLYLAND....................................................................4 8 DAYS / 7 NIGHTS PILGRIMAGE TO THE HOLY LAND............................................6 HOLY LAND - 13 DAYS /12 NIGHTS............................................................................8 HOLY WEEK – PALM SUNDAY TO EASTER SUNDAY...............................................10 SPECIAL HIKING TOUR OF ISRAEL "OUTDOORS IN ISRAEL " .............................12 ITINERARY FOR TOUR 7 DAYS / 6 NIGHTS.............................................................16 GREEK ORTHODOX - PILGRIMAGE TO HOLY LAND 9 DAYS................................18 REGIONAL ITINERARY JORDAN, ISRAEL, EGYPT..................................................20 JORDAN -ADD ON -TOUR 4 DAYS/ 3 NIGHTS.........................................................22 JORDAN-ISRAEL-EGYPT 11 DAY PROGRAM..........................................................22 EGYPT - ADD ON -TOURS CAIRO - MOUNT SINAI - 5 DAYS / 4 NIGHTS...............24 CAIRO & SUBURBS TOUR 4 DAYS / 3 NIGHTS........................................................24 CAIRO & NILE CRUISE 9 DAYS / 8 NIGHTS.............................................................25 EXODUS - EGYPT, JORDAN ISRAEL 14 DAYS / 13 NIGHTS...................................26 TURKEY: THE ROUTE OF ST.
