Sample Day-by-Day Itinerary<br />

Day 1, November 26, 2012 Depart USA<br />

Make your way to Boston Logan Airport where you will board your<br />

overnight flights to Tel Aviv. Dinner and breakfast will be served on<br />

board.<br />

Day 2, November 27, 2012 Arrive Tel Aviv<br />

Upon arrival in Tel Aviv Airport you will find your luggage and exit the<br />

baggage claim into the arrivals hall where you will be greeted by your<br />

tour escort and/or driver. After a warm welcome to Israel, you will be<br />

escorted to your transportation to our hotel on the beautiful Mediterranean<br />

coast. We enjoy a delicious buffet dinner at our hotel before retiring<br />

for the evening.<br />

Day 3, November 28, 2012 Stella Maris, Cana, Basilica of the Annunciation<br />

& Mary's Well<br />

After a filling breakfast we travel up the coast to Caesarea. We will visit<br />

the Roman and Crusader ruins, where Paul was held prisoner by the<br />

Romans. We continue our journey into the Carmel Mountains, heading<br />

for Galilee. We stop in Haifa where we will visit Stella Maris, a Carmelite<br />

Monastery which houses the Madonna of Mt. Carmel. After time for<br />

prayer we continue on to Mukhraka where Elijah confronted the false<br />

prophets of Baal and where the Carmelite Order began. Our next stop<br />

is Cana, the village where Jesus performed his first miracle changing<br />

water into wine. Our pilgrim couples will have a special opportunity to<br />

renew their wedding vows during our Mass. We drive to nearby Nazareth,<br />

where we will visit the Basilica of the Annunciation, Mary's Well<br />

and the Church of the Angel Gabriel. We arrive in Tiberias in time for<br />

our dinner and a restful overnight.<br />

Day 4, November 29, 2012 <strong>The</strong> Ministry of Christ in Galilee<br />

Today we will focus on the ministry of Christ during his time in Galilee.<br />

We will enjoy a peaceful boat ride across the Sea of Galilee where<br />

Christ walked on water. We also visit the holy site Capernaum to see<br />

the synagogue and St. Peter's house, where Jesus would have stayed<br />

while ministering in the area. Visit the breathtaking Mount of Beatitudes<br />

where the Sermon on the Mount was given. <strong>The</strong>re will be an<br />

unforgettable Mass near the shores of the Sea of Galilee at the Primacy<br />

of Mt. Beatitudes. We continue on to Tabgha where we will view<br />

the splendid mosaic commemorating the miracle of the loaves and<br />

fishes, and to the nearby Church of Peter's Primacy where Peter was<br />

told "Feed my lambs, feed my sheep." In the afternoon we visit<br />

Caesarea Philippi, where Jesus told Peter "You are the Rock and upon<br />

this rock I will build my Church." We return to our hotel for dinner and a<br />

well earned rest.<br />

Day 5, November 30, 2012 Jordan River, Mt. Tabor, Jerusalem<br />

We start our day with a stop at the Jordan River where we will renew<br />

our Baptismal Vows. We will continue to Mount Tabor, scene of the<br />

Transfiguration, where we will have Mass in the beautiful small church<br />

atop the mountain. We drive down the Jordan Valley and head towards<br />

Jerusalem where we will arrive in time for dinner.<br />

Day 6, December 1, 2012 Jerusalem & Bethlehem<br />

We begin our time in Jerusalem with an overview of the past and current<br />

geography of the Old City, including a dramatic view of the Old<br />

City from the Mount of Olives, revealing a city with 4000 years of history.<br />

From this vantage point, see much of what makes Jerusalem<br />

such a unique city to the three major religions: Christianity, Judaism,<br />

and Islam. We then head to the village of Ein Karem, the birthplace of<br />

St. John the Baptist and to the Church of Visitation where the Blessed<br />

Virgin Mary visited her cousin, Elizabeth, and proclaimed the<br />

'Magnificat.' In the afternoon we drive to the Shepherd's Fields where<br />

the angels announced the birth of Jesus and celebrate Mass. We visit<br />

the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, which stands upon the site<br />

where Jesus was born. We have time to shop before returning to our<br />

hotel for dinner.<br />

Day 7 December 2,<br />

2012: <strong>The</strong> Passion of<br />

Jesus' Last Hours<br />

We begin our day with<br />

a visit to the Mt. of<br />

Olives to walk the<br />

Palm Sunday route<br />

stopping at Dominus<br />

Flevit, where Jesus<br />

wept over Jerusalem.<br />

Our journey takes us<br />

to Gethsemane, where<br />

we will visit the Rock<br />

of Agony where Jesus<br />

prayed His last prayer<br />

before his arrest. We<br />

continue on to the<br />

Cave of Betrayal and<br />

the Cave of Assumption<br />

of Mary to<br />

Heaven. We visit Pater<br />

Noster, where the<br />

universality of the<br />

Catholic Church is evident in the tiled mosaics of the Lord's Prayer in<br />

many languages. We finish our day at the Chapel of the Ascension<br />

from where Jesus ascended to Heaven. We return to our hotel for dinner<br />

and an early lights out.<br />

Day 8 December 3, 2012 Stations of the Cross<br />

This morning we wake very early for one of the highlights of our trip.<br />

As the sun rises we retrace the last steps of Jesus on Good Friday. As<br />

we walk along the Via Dolorosa (Way of Sorrow), through the Old City<br />

we will pray the Stations of the Cross as we walk the same path Jesus<br />

took. We reflect on the greatness of His sacrifice as we arrive at the<br />

Church of the <strong>Holy</strong> Sepulchre for Mass. We return to our hotel for<br />

breakfast before visiting St. Anne's Church, the home of the Virgin<br />

Mary and her parents Saints Joachim and Anne. We will see the Ecce<br />

Home where Pilate proclaimed "Behold the man," the Wailing Wall (the<br />

most holy place for Jews). We exit at Mt. Zion to visit the Upper Room<br />

of the Last Supper and the Dormition Abbey where we believe the<br />

Blessed Mary died. We end the day at St. Peter in Gallicantu where<br />

Peter denied Christ three times. This afternoon you will have free time<br />

to rest or explore Jerusalem. Return to our hotel for dinner and a restful<br />

overnight.<br />

Day 9, December 4, 2012 <strong>The</strong> Wilderness: Bethany, Jericho, Mt.<br />

Temptation, Dead Sea<br />

We begin our day with a visit to Bethany where Jesus raised Lazarus<br />

from the dead. As we head east of Jerusalem into the desert, you will<br />

begin to understand the rich Christian tradition of this region. As we<br />

continue on we will see the Monastery of St. George, just off the Roman<br />

road that Jesus 'walked.' As we reach the oasis town of Jericho,<br />

we visit the excavations of the oldest city in the world and enjoy a<br />

splendid view of Mt. Temptation where Jesus fasted and was tempted<br />

by Satan. Before returning to Jerusalem we stop at the Dead Sea<br />

where we will have time for a swim (or rather a float) in the mineral-rich<br />

waters. <strong>The</strong> Dead Sea is renowned for its healing properties and various<br />

skin products. Due to the geographic position it is warm enough to<br />

swim year round! As we return to Jerusalem, there will be time for you<br />

to revisit some of your favorite sites, finish your last minute shopping,<br />

and rest. We gather for our final dinner at our hotel.<br />

Day 10, December 5, 2012 Tel Aviv - USA<br />

Early morning departure for Tel Aviv Airport for Boston. Take time to<br />

reflect on all you have seen during your visit to the <strong>Holy</strong> <strong>Land</strong> and the<br />

many ways in which your faith has grown.

such as cancellations due to acts of war and/or terrorism, war, God,<br />

or nature takes place, <strong>206</strong> <strong>Tours</strong> is not liable for restitution. Though<br />

every effort will be made to follow the itinerary, it should be considered<br />

as an indication of the tour, rather than a contract of places to be visited.<br />

Occasionally local religious holidays, national days, traffic conditions<br />

and other events may necessitate changes in the sequence of visits or the<br />

missing of certain visits. We will have daily mass and strive to be in<br />

places as indicated. However, sometimes this is not possible as the site<br />

may not be available for Mass or itinerary changes are forced upon us. In<br />

this case an alternative site for Mass will be arranged.<br />

reserving for them wheelchair assistance at airports and handicap accessible<br />

rooms where available, however, we cannot guarantee and are not<br />

responsible for any denial of services by carriers, hotels, restaurants, or<br />

other independent suppliers. Be aware that all of our tours are operated<br />

outside the U.S. where the Americans with Disabilities Act is not applicable<br />

services, including the touring motor coaches, are not equipped with<br />

wheelchair ramps or lifts. We regret that we cannot provide individual<br />

assistance to any tour participant for walking, dining, while in their room,<br />

on flight, getting on and off motor coaches and other vehicles, or other<br />

personal needs. A qualified and physically able companion(s) must<br />

accompany travelers who need special assistance. It is the passenger's<br />

advised to travel with at least one companion; during her pregnancy, her<br />

level of comfort may be adversely affected by traveling.<br />

YOUNG TRAVELERS Travelers who are less than 18 years old on<br />

security, many countries have adopted practices to prevent international<br />

abductions of children. If a child will be traveling with adults other than<br />

the parents or with only one parent, it is recommended that a notarized<br />

letter be written by the parents or non-traveling parent granting authorization<br />

to travel including the dates of travel. We also suggest you contact<br />

the appropriate consulate and airlines because they may have additional<br />

requirements. For the purposes of <strong>206</strong> <strong>Tours</strong> trips an infant is defined as<br />
