'TOUR OF JERUSALEM': Excursion in Haifa

Following a sightseeing tour of the modern districts of Jerusalem you will explore a panoramic view of the city. Then you will then proceed to Mount Zion, to visit the beautiful Church of the Dormition, where the Virgin Mary fell into “eternal sleep”. Next you will visit the Cenacle and King David's tomb. Israel is world famous for the cutting of diamonds, the most precious stones known to man. You will visit a workshop where you can see them being cut, admire the finished product and – if you wish – make some bargain buys! Following a stop for a tasty refreshing lunch, you will continue your tour with a visit to the Old City of Jerusalem, taking in its most important sights: part of the Via Dolorosa, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Wailing Wall.
