Things to do in Masada

The cliff top fortress of Masada has important religious and historical significance, and a visit here is essential to understanding Judaism and its place in modern-day Israel. Take a private Masada tour and unlock the fascinating stories preserved at this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Perched on a rocky plateau, Masada is best known as the stronghold where Jewish rebels and their families held off a Roman siege for months before committing suicide rather than surrendering. Walk the fortress walls for spectacular views of the Dead Sea, tour the well-preserved royal palace, the thermal baths and the museum. Don't forget to view the storerooms and water collection systems. Photographers should visit in the morning or evening for softer light. The physically fit - and adventurous - can arrange a tour that starts hiking before dawn…the reward is a spectacular sunrise. For those unable to hike, a gondola is available. So wear a hat, drink lots of water, and enjoy your private Masada tour!
