We'll start with the breathtaking view of Jerusalem; As if in the palm of our hand, we see the Old City and the Temple Mountarea spread before us and imagine the Second Temple destroyed in 70 CE.

As we'll drive along the Kidron Valley towards the Zion gate we have an excellent view of the Mount of Olives and the Jewish cemetery, in constant use over two thousand years.

On Mount Zion, we'll stop at the Tomb of King David. The large cenotaph is covered with a drape on which are embroidered various attributes of the biblical monarch.

As we enter the Old City through the Zion gate, we'll stop at the four beautifully restored seventeenth and early eighteenth-century Sephardi synagogues.

We continue through the marvellous excavated Byzantine Cardo and the Jewish Quarter into the Western Wall Hall. This two-thousand-year-old wall is part of the encircling and supporting wall built by King Herod when the Temple Mount area was enlarged.

We'll leave the Old City through the Dung Gate and see the remarkable excavations of the three-thousand-year-old City of David.
