Why do you travel? To learn, to see, and to experience? Come join me on my travels through the West Bank of Palestine. I love to wander, connect with people, and learn about a place from the inside. So that's how I design my tours. When I travel with you, you will see what is it like to live in Palestine - now and in the past. We will visit places that are not on a tourist map… places that define the rich diversity of Palestine. On one of my specialised journeys, my guests drink coffee in family homes, explore ancient ruins, ride motorbikes across the West Bank, wander through gnarled olive orchards, meet dynamic community leaders, or walk through the streets of city centers and refugee camps. Or I can help you find your own adventure. Come see Palestine from the inside. Motorcycle/Hiking/trekking license Driving License

Overview of your Jericho tour

Jericho is a green oasis in the Jordan Valley which lies 7 km west of the River Jordan, 10 Km north of the Dead Sea and 30 Km east of Jerusalem. It lies 250 meters below sea level and thus it is considered to be the lowest city in the world. The origin of the name "Jericho" is Semitic. To the Canaanites it meant "The Moon". In Syriac the name meant "Scent and odour". The city is called "The city of Palm" and "The Garden of God". Jericho is the oldest city in the world. The ruins of the oldest civilization discovered in Jericho are 10, 000 years old. There are a lot of important and beautiful historical places to visit in Jericho, such as Old Jericho, River Jordan where Jesus Christ was baptized, Mount of Temptation, Hisham Palace, Ein Al-Sultan (Elisha) spring, Sycamore tree, Monastery of Saint George (Wadi Kelt), Hasmoneans (Herod) Palace, Monastery of Dier hajlah, Kumran Caves, Dead Sea, and a lot more.
