Masada is located in the heart of the Judea desert, about three hours away by car from Haifa. As you approach Masada, the awesome panorama of the Judean Desert and the shimmering waters of the Dead Sea welcome you. The remarkable contrast between the barren desert landscape and the vibrant blue colour of the sea creates an mystical sight. The desert air carries a sense of mystery and adventure, heightening the anticipation of what lies ahead.
- Masada National Park: After a brief introductory film we will use the cable car to climb to the top of Masada, where we will have a short walk among the ruins of the palaces left by King Herod two thousand years ago.
