Bethlehem Heritage and Wine tasting Full-Day Tour

We’ll head out to explore the Old City of Bethlehem for fresh air and fresh knowledge. We’ll walk through the city on which Joseph and Mary took to approach the Grotto of the Nativity; Star Street.

We’ll continue to the old entrance of Bethlehem City and explore another type of Hosh: The Syrian Quarter and admire its ancient brick building on a narrow winding street. Also located in the Old City is the Al Badd Museum for Olive Oil Production; a traditional building that dates back to the 18th–19th century. As we enter the Museum we step into history. We’ll grasp all the ethnographic and archaeological artefacts that feature the process of oil production.   *Opening hours: 08:00-14:30 Monday through Saturday

This journey continues to the Nativity Church. It is one of the oldest, standing churches in the world built in the Byzantine time, 5th century. We’ll enter the Basilica through the main entrance also known as “The door of humility,”there we’ll notice the original floor of the first church of Constantine from 326 AD. We’ll find ourselves proceeding to steps that take us down to the grotto; experiencing the spot where Jesus was born from Virgin Mary.

The crisp of the falafel and creamy texture of humus with a salad made up of fresh, local vegetables will give us a boost to continue our day.

This is where Virgin Mary was feeding baby Jesus and a drop of milk fell on the ground and turned the stones all to white.

Here the Angel of the Lord appeared before shepherds bringing them good tidings of the Birth of Jesus. And they joined with a multitude of heavenly hosts, the Angel sang ‘Glory to God in the Highest and on Earth, Peace among men.’
