Overview of your Bethlehem tour:

During this day tour, you will get the chance to be baptized in the Jordan River by a priest with prearrangement . This is one of the most special experiences and moment of spirituality you may have in the Holy Land taking the blessings in the Jordan River renewing your faith in the same river where John the Baptist baptized Jesus Christ almost 2000 years ago. Also you'll have the opportunity to visit the Grotto where Jesus was born. As a Bethlimite who loves her city, I'll be happy to share with you and guide you to the most sacred sites in Bethlehem. You will truly touch the heart of the holy land and feel connected to its miracles.
