Overview

A full-day journey into Israel’s dramatic desert past and natural wonders

Step back in time atop the majestic cliffs of Masada, where King Herod built his desert fortress and where Jewish rebels made their last heroic stand against Rome. Reach the summit by cable car and explore the ancient palaces, bathhouses, and storied ruins — all brought to life by a professional German-speaking guide.

Afterward, descend into the Judean Desert for a completely different kind of experience: the healing waters of the Dead Sea. Float effortlessly in the mineral-rich lake, relax with a mud treatment, or simply enjoy the peaceful desert views from a private resort.

This tour is the perfect combination of archaeology, history, wellness, and desert beauty — all in one unforgettable day.
