TOUR HIGHLIGHTS of the BIBLICAL GARDENS
Neot Kedumim — a 600 Acre Botanical Garden in which Biblical trees and plants have been restored.
Ancient water and olive mills. Specialist Guide relating the meaning and importance of trees and plants in the Sacred Feast Days and Festivals. Understand the agricultural background to the Feasts, reflecting its spiritual meaning, especially for re-identifying 10-Tribers.
"The Biblical Landscape Reserve in Israel is a unique endeavor to re-create the physical setting of the Bible in all its depth and detail. Far more than a "garden" showing various biblical plants, Neot Kedumim embodies the panorama and power of the landscapes that helped shape the values of the Bible and provided a rich vocabulary for expressing them.
"The Bible conveys its ideas not in abstract terms, but through a clear and vivid record of long human interaction with the land of Israel. Neot Kedumim draws on a variety of disciplines — such as Bible scholarship, botany, zoology, geography, history, and archaeology — to bring the Bible and its commentaries to life."

JERUSALEM
Herzl Museum of Zionism – Audio visual presentations of Theodor Herzl's struggles at the turn of the last century, to initiate interest amongst Jews for a Return to the Land. He died a disillusioned man in 1904, not realizing the Wonder of the Rebirth of Israel which his ideas and labours had brought about by one man alone.
Yad VaShem Museum of the Holocuast– Experience the trauma of the Holocaust, vividly displayed with visuals, films and records.
SHOMRON (Samaria)
Abraham's View – when God showed him the Promised Land from the summit of Mt Kabir. View point - looking North across the Valley by which ancient Israel entered the Land in the Exodus – the Shomron mountains towards Galilee
Walk in the footsteps of the ancient Ten Tribes in the hidden and yet undiscovered Bible Land – the original areas where the 12 Tribes of Israel entered and lived for centuries before the Temple in Jerusalem was erected. Enjoy the sites of the Land which Abraham and the patriarchs were granted at their entry to the Promised Land – much of it (to the North) still unspoilt as in those days 3500 years ago!
Observe the struggles and the amazing faith of modern Jewish settlers who settle these areas against the wishes of the world and even their own government of Israel. The Shomron is today the much disputed land from which the Arabs, supported by the entire world, wish to prevent Jews from living and settling. It also is the ancient Homeland as well as the Promised future Land for the returning 10 Tribes of Israel, after their exile of nearly 3000 years.
- See Bible Prophecy in fulfillment as the mountains of Shomron once again produce wines as foretold by ancient Prophets, when the nation shall return from exile.
- Visit the hill-top settlements and farms of Jewish settlers. Behold their struggles to develop the Land. See their successes as settlements start to thrive on the long deserted hills of Shomron.
- Shiloh – the resting Place of the Tabernacle 400 years before the Ark was moved to Jerusalem.
- Visit the synagogue built to the shape of the ancient Tabernacle.
- The following 2 unique Tours to 'Unseen Territory" only if access by military escort allowed.
These sites are normally opened for one day only during festive periods.
- Joshua's Altar – on Mt Eval (Mt. of Curses) where Joshua built an altar and re-commemorated the giving of the Torah on Mt Sinai. Probably the most ancient archeological remains in Israel, unvisited by tourists and Israelis. Special opportunity under military escort.
- Sebastia – ancient capitol of the Northern 10 Tribes, home of evil king Ahaz and Jezebel.
- Mt Kabir– Opposite this Site of Joshuah's Altar. Stand on the mountain peak where Avraham was shown his Inheritance – and observe the extent of the Promised Land as shown to Him by God.
- Visit the Jewish farming area of Itamar, the largest 'municipal' area in Israel.
- Drive along the ancient Road of the Prophets, leading to Galilee North from Jerusalem – the same main road area that the ancient Israelites traversed.
- See the modern towns that have arisen from these settlements, spread over the hill tops of Shomron.
These are just a few of the many highlights which you will enjoy in this Biblical Wonderland, which is yet unknown to modern tourists and even to most Israelis.
