About

Jerusalem holds great importance for Christians around the world as it is believed to be the city where Jesus Christ was crucified, buried, and resurrected. It is also where the events of the Bible’s Old and New Testaments took place. Christian pilgrims from all over the world visit Jerusalem to connect with the roots of their faith and to visit some of the holiest sites in Christianity. This two-hour tour will take visitors through some of the most important Christian sites in Jerusalem, exploring their history and significance.


Christianity has a long and rich history in Israel, dating back to the time of Jesus himself. According to the New Testament, Jesus spent much of his life in the region, preaching and performing miracles. After his death and resurrection, his followers continued to spread his teachings, eventually establishing the Church of Jerusalem. Over the centuries, the city has been an important centre of Christian worship and pilgrimage, with numerous churches and monasteries built on the sites associated with Jesus’ life and ministry.


The tour of Christian sites in Jerusalem begins with a visit to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, one of the most significant sites in Christianity. This church is believed to be the place where Jesus was crucified, buried, and resurrected, making it a sacred site for Christians worldwide. Visitors will explore the church’s interior, seeing the Golgotha, where Jesus was crucified, and the tomb of Jesus. The tour will then move on to the Crusader-era churches, which date back to the 12th century, when Jerusalem was under Christian rule. Visitors will see the beautiful architecture and learn about the historical significance of these churches. Finally, the tour will end in the Room of the Last Supper, where Jesus shared his last meal with his disciples before his arrest and crucifixion. From this location, visitors can enjoy a stunning view of the Mount of Olives, one of the most significant sites in the life of Jesus. This tour is an unforgettable experience that will deepen visitors’ understanding of the history and significance of Christianity in Jerusalem.


On this tour, we will see and visit:



  • The Church of the Holy Sepulchre – visiting inside, including the Golgota and explaining all the details of the church

  • The Crusaders’ sites

  • Mount Zion with the Room of the Last Supper

  • View on the Temple Mount and the Mount of Olives


NOTE: due to long lines we do not enter the edicule, the tomb of Jesus, we show it and recommend entering on your own.
