The cost of touring Israel can vary widely depending on factors such as the duration of your trip, the level of accommodation, and the activities you choose. We, at Tour Israel, are of the opinion that most people who have a visit to Israel and the Holy Lands on their bucket list, are only able to go once in their lifetime. With that in mind we have designed a 13-full day land package (15 days if travelling with a group from South Africa) to optimise your time in the Holy Land and to include as many of the important spiritual and biblical sites as possible. Being a longer tour, the comfort and personalisation of the accommodation and meals are of premium priority.
