Tour 1A: City of David Jerusalem. Half-Day tours of Biblical Jerusalem & Tunnel (4-5 hours, without Car)

Embark on a sacred journey through the City of David, where the pages of the Bible come to life in the underground passages that echo with history.

• Descend into the depths of biblical Jerusalem, navigating through wet or dry tunnels that bear witness to the city’s triumphs and the exodus of its residents. Feel the tangible connection to the past as you explore the hidden spring, a site where kings, perhaps even King David, were coronated—a place resonant with regal significance, as hinted in the verses of the Bible.
• Venture into the heart of Hezekiah’s Tunnel, an engineering marvel from the time of the prophets, where the timeless flow of water mirrors the passages of scripture. Walk in the footsteps of ancient history, surrounded by the remnants of walls, shafts, and fortresses that define the City of David—the very place where Jerusalem’s story began.
• Choose your path, whether through the immersive water tunnel or the parallel dry tunnel, each offering a unique perspective on the city’s biblical heritage.

As you traverse these underground depths for a 4-5 hour tour, immerse yourself in the verses of the Bible that weave through the narrative of King David and the origins of Jerusalem. Experience the subterranean magic, where the whispers of scripture resonate, bringing you closer to the profound history that shaped this sacred city.

• For those who dare to venture through the water tunnel, water shoes and flashlights, available at our Gift Shop, become essential tools. Please note that candles and bare feet are strictly prohibited in this hallowed space.
• Entrance is recommended for those aged 5 and older, as you navigate through passages that may reach depths of up to 70 cm (28 inches). Be prepared for staircases, as the journey includes walking up and down stairs, echoing the ascensions and descents found in the biblical verses.
